Citarella’s Plans Southampton Village Market

Citarella — a New York City and Hamptons chain of gourmet markets — is poised to open a new location in Southampton Village, according to The Southampton Press.

The proposed site is a mini-mall at 20 and 22 Hampton Road, and according to The Press, other business that currently lease space there will have to move out if the Southampton Village Planning Board gives the building's owner permission to convert it into a market. The Press reports that it was formerly an A&P grocery store.

Citarella's other Hamptons locations are in Bridgehampton and East Hampton. There was a shop at the Water Mill Commons, but it closed and the space was taken over by Avanti Culinary Market.

According to an official notice posted in the window, the planning board will hold a public hearing on the Hampton Road application March 2 during a 6 p.m. meeting at Village Hall.
