The Grand Delancey

"The Grand Delancey, an anchor beer spot at the Market Line, is closing due to struggles with foot traffic and the lasting effects of the pandemic." - Emma Orlow

"The Grand Delancey falls in the category of massive bars where people hang out at 3pm on Sundays and drink craft beer while their kids run around chasing each other with bubble wands. There are more than 50 beers on tap, with an impressive mix of stuff from New York-based breweries, Europe, and places like Vermont, Iowa, and Virginia. You can also bring food from any of the surrounding vendors and snack while you drink an IPA or sour." - Bryan Kim, Hannah Albertine

"We often find ourselves meeting up with friends at this convenient beer bar. There’s plenty of seating and fifty beers on tap, with an impressive mix of stuff from New York-based breweries, Europe, and places like Vermont, Iowa, and Virginia. You can also bring any food from any of the vendors at The Market Line or Essex Market and snack while you drink a delicious IPA or sour." - Carlo Mantuano

"If you live in the neighborhood, you may already rely on Essex Market for grocery shopping, securing fancy Norwegian smoked fish, or picking up a breakfast burrito with chorizo and potatoes on Sunday mornings. But you may not know that their Market Line vendors have a collaborative outdoor setup with beer from The Grand Delancey, TVs showing football games on Sundays and Thursdays, and a menu of food and drinks from other Market Line vendors like End’s Meat, People’s Wine, Nom Wah, Slice Joint, and more." - Hannah Albertine

"The beer menu at Grand Delancey is so large and detailed that it should come with a color coding key. For example, it’s broken up by flavor profile, and tells you the temperature each drink is best served at. And, since this LES spot is located in The Market Line below Essex Market, you can order in snacks from any of the neighboring vendors like Veselka pierogies, pickle plates, and dumplings from Nom Wah." - Hannah Albertine, Bryan Kim, Matt Tervooren
