Download the app and explore the city via the glamorous East River (no subway!). Particularly recommend ferrying two stops to DUMBO for great views and plenty of fun at Brooklyn Bridge Park. The North Williamsburg stop is closest to recommended hotels.
The L Train is your closest subway station (NYC MTA) and will provide easy access to Manhattan - 1 stop to East Village and 3 stops to Union Square.
Kids will love the enclosed carousel, and adults will enjoy the 85 acres of piers will all sorts of programming and beautiful nature. Great for picnics! Pier 1 is largest entrance and located at the NYC Ferry DUMBO stop.
Great for a run around the track, people watching, or simply ambling through as you take a walk up to Greenpoint and all of its charming shops and restaurants.
Be sure to stop in Todd Snyder in Williamsburg and explore "Jandro's Picks" first hand!
Delicious and easygoing spot for sourdough pizza, family style salads, and natural wines. The Leo-tini is always recommended. Indoor and outdoor seating is usually available for walk ins; reservations can be made on Resy.
This is the Michelin-starred restaurant and natural wine bar from LCD Soundsystem frontman James Murphy. Reservations recommended, but you book in advance or snuggle up at the bar (that's our move).
Our go-to for a date night. This all-day neighborhood brasserie is in the ground floor of The Wythe hotel and the rooftop bar Bar Blondau is also great! Reservations available on Resy. (https://www.barblondeau.com/)
Excellent Moroccan fare at this neighborhood establishment. Check it out for brunch and enjoy the back garden. Reservations available on Resy.
Our neighborhood Italian go-to featuring Brian's favorite kale salad and a beautiful side garden. It's right around the corner from our apartment - so we may just see you there!
Our casual meet-up spot with Robin, Mila, Erik ... and really everyone! The menu has something for all tastes every time of day.
Best burger and fries in town at this elevated pub. Our favorite meeting point with Roberto & Sabrina. A nice little walk up the hill from the DUMBO ferry stop.
