  • With 'bars', 'parks', 'restaurants' all in plural, would 'grocery' not better be written in plural too?

Maybe I'm mistaken (I'm not a native English speaker), but would 'grocery' in the following situation not better be written in plural form as 'groceries' for consistency?

It to be written in plural.

    Native English speaker here. I think “Grocery” is the correct label. “Groceries” refers to the things (plural) you buy at a grocery store, not multiple grocery stores. (I don't think there is such a thing as “a grocery”.) So changing the label to “groceries” would require changing “cafes” and “bars” to “coffee” and “drinks” for consistency.

    EDIT: “Grocery stores” would be acceptable but is probably too long.
