Hummus Bar, a well-known kosher Middle Eastern eatery located in Flatbush, prepares to open its newest location this week in the heart of Crown Heights.
The Hummus Bar franchise is owned by the same entrepreneurial team which has opened Joseph’s Dream Burger locations in Crown Heights and Flatbush in Brooklyn.
Already popular in Brooklyn, with an established presence in Flatbush, Hummus Bar has earned a reputation for delivering an authentic Israeli street food experience. Known for its fresh ingredients, vibrant flavors, and welcoming atmosphere, the restaurant brings a true taste of Israel right to the neighborhood.
The new Crown Heights location, at the site of the former longtime Kingston Avenue flower shop at 325 Kingston Avenue, marks another step in the brand’s growth, as it also prepares to open a location in Lakewood, an exciting development for the growing demand for high-quality kosher dining in that area.
In addition to its menu, the Crown Heights location was thoughtfully designed with the community in mind. The space features comfortable indoor seating, making it an ideal spot for families looking for an easy, relaxed dinner option, parents with children who want a casual, welcoming environment and small groups and friends gathering for a quick bite or a longer sit-down meal.
The layout offers a balance between fast-casual convenience and sit-down comfort, allowing customers to enjoy their food without feeling rushed. Whether it’s a weeknight dinner, a Motzei Shabbos outing, or a quick lunch break, the space is built to accommodate a steady flow of guests while still feeling open and inviting.
Hummus Bar is best known for its classic Middle Eastern menu, featuring: Fresh, creamy hummus made in-house, crispy falafel, flavorful shawarma, traditional shakshuka, Sabich and other Israeli staples.
Each dish is prepared with an emphasis on freshness and authenticity, recreating the experience of Israeli street food culture, simple, flavorful, and satisfying.
The Crown Heights location will operate under the CHK hashgacha, offering a reliable kosher standard for the community.
Since its launch in Brooklyn, Hummus Bar has quickly become a go-to destination for those seeking authentic, high-quality Middle Eastern cuisine. Its Flatbush location continues to draw steady crowds, and the expansion into Crown Heights reflects the strong demand and loyal following the brand has built.
With its new Crown Heights opening and plans underway for Lakewood, Hummus Bar is positioning itself as a leading name in kosher Israeli cuisine across key Jewish communities.
For Crown Heights residents, the opening brings more than just another restaurant, it offers a family-friendly, inviting space combined with bold, authentic flavors that are sure to become a local favorite.
The restaurant will be open Sunday through Thursday from 12:00 PM to 12:00 AM, with plans to expand hours in the future to include Friday and Motzei Shabbos as well.
