Lone Star Gourmet Market 1901 Surf Avenue, Brooklyn, New York 11224,

"For various reasons, Coney Island has long been a food desert. Most food-related businesses there offer unhealthy options that only make the residents of the community more sick. The Lone Star Gourmet Market is a much-needed oasis with healthier food options. It is a well-organized supermarket with a deli that offers hot food and sandwiches. There is also an impressive juice bar that boasts a dozen juice and 21 smoothie options. There are many products that will appeal to the Hispanic community as well as other products that may appeal to other ethnic groups. There is a vegan section with seitan, plant-based bacon, vegan sausage, tofurky, and many tofu products, as well as a dairy section that offers a good number of non-dairy brands (i.e., Oatly, Almond Breeze, Silk). There is also a large selection of Bob's Red Mill products including grains and cereals. These areas help to bring a more vegan presence in Coney Island. With high ceilings, easy-to-reach products, and friendly staff, this market is a very inviting place to shop at."
