After a three month-long wait, Littleneck Outpost is finally open to the public.

The new seafood-centric shop—an offshoot of the eponymous Gowanus restaurant—opened yesterday morning, serving up everything a good Brooklynite needs in the morning like coffee, granola, a soft egg and boquerones and arugula quinoa. Later in the day, visitors can enjoy salads and sandwiches using bread from Bakeri, another Greenpoint newcomer, including Littleneck’s famed lobster rolls ($18), clam rolls ($16) and shrimp rolls ($14). And if seafood isn’t quite your thing, there are more terrestrially-influenced options like mortadella, chicken confit and smoked pastrami sandwiches.

Littleneck Outpost is also functioning as a “grocery and specialty needs” shop according to their website, so keep an eye out for well-stocked shelves with “books, aprons and pantry items” for sale.
