Quick answer
The closest full grocery store to 17 John Street is the Whole Foods at 270 Greenwich Street, about a 12-minute walk northwest. For a quicker run, there are smaller markets and delis within a couple of blocks along Fulton and Nassau Streets, plus a Trader Joe's a short walk south. Since every suite has a full kitchen, most guests staying more than a night or two do a real grocery shop and cook in.
Every suite has a full kitchen, so a grocery run pays off.
One of the real perks of staying somewhere with a full kitchen is that you don't have to eat out every meal. You can make coffee the way you like it, keep snacks for the kids, and cook a proper dinner after a long day of walking. But that only works if you know where to shop, and the Financial District isn't as obvious for groceries as, say, a residential block uptown. Here's where we send guests, with honest walk times from our door at 17 John Street.
A quick note on how to think about it: for a big shop, you'll head to one of the two full-size stores about 10 to 15 minutes away. For a carton of milk or something you forgot, there's a market or deli within a block or two. We've split the list that way.
