Fodor's Expert Review Jones the Grocer
Partly a casual café and partly an upscale grocery, Jones the Grocer is packed with expat families during the weekend brunch, but on the quieter weekday evenings, you'll likely share this roomy, industrial-style space with just a handful of others. Salads, sandwiches, pastas, and light seafood platters are among the foods on the seasonal menu (the concept hailing from Woollahra in Sydney, where the first branch opened over two decades ago). The shop also stocks coffees, chocolates, wines, craft beers, and other delicious goods. You should head straight to the back of the store, grab a baguette at the bakery, and pick out a few hunks of imported cheese from the refrigerated cheese room—the selection is impressive.
