Job Description

Overview

Meadow Lane is a gourmet prepared foods market coming to Tribeca in 2025, focused on organic, high-quality culinary offerings. Our store will carry an expansive menu of delicious prepared foods made fresh from our on-site kitchen. All menu items will be available grab-and-go style, to fit the fast pace of NYC while satisfying New Yorkers needs for delicious, healthy, and nutritious food in a beautiful environment.

Our partnerships with local, sustainable farms will bring a variety of fresh farm produce under one roof, saving our shoppers a trip to the farmers market and connecting more small farms with the NYC customer. Our beverage program consists of a coffee, tea, and matcha bar, organic smoothies, and a menu of organic juices. Fresh pastries and other sweet and savory treats will be available for takeaway.

Meadow Lane will stock a curated assortment of snacks and dry goods brands, along with household staple items. We have selectively chosen brands in a handful of categories to bring exclusive collaborations to Meadow Lane. In our floral studio, bespoke specialty floral arrangements will be designed each day for custom orders, events, hospitality and fashion partnerships, and weekly floral house accounts.
