Prospect Park code states that alcoholic beverages may not be sold for on- or off-premises consumption in the borough. Restaurants may therefore differ from similar venues in neighboring municipalities.
Neighborhood groceries and delis are included here rather than on Business & Shopping because prepared food and everyday food retail are central to how residents use them. This keeps restaurants, delis, bakeries and food-first businesses together in one guide.
