Things To Do
McCarren Park Greenmarket
Every Saturday morning, you'll find us here dropping off the compost and picking up some local produce. Runs on Saturdays from 8AM-2PM.
Domino Park
Gorgeous park on the East River with the coolest playground in town.
Williamsburg Bridge
Need some exercise during your marathon weekend of eating? Walk the bridge on a nice day for stellar views of the city.
McNally Jackson Books
A beloved independent bookstore with lots to look through.
Blue Bottle Coffee
A San Francisco import, but really the best coffee out there.
Leo
Right around the corner from our apartment, this place has not just incredible sourdough pizza, but also fantastic bagels, pastries, and wine.
Pies 'n' Thighs
Caryn's favorite meal in Williamsburg is the chicken biscuit from Pies 'n' Thighs. Piyal prefers the straight fried chicken. Go for yourself and decide.
Levain Bakery - Williamsburg
Yes, THAT Levain. The Upper West Side bakery with the best cookies in town has a location right here.
Peter Pan Donut & Pastry Shop
Old school donut shop that's worth walking a few more blocks north.
Brooklyn Brewery
Pending this is open post-COVID times, this is a great place to sample some local brews and relax.
