Time to celery-brate! Long Island’s first-ever Wegmans is slated to open next week — and Suffolk County residents can’t romaine calm. The 101,000-square-foot grocery store is slated to open near the Smith Haven Mall in Lake Grove on Feb.
Long Island and the rest of the New York City area had been devoid of the popular supermarket chain until Oct. 2019, when a 74,000-square-foot Wegmans opened in Brooklyn. That was followed by an 87,500-square-foot store at Astor Place in Manhattan in Oct. 2023.
