Things To Do
Bakeri
A bakery and coffee shop chalk full of your breakfast pastry needs along with a decently priced breakfast and lunch sandwich menu for the area. (2 min walk from hotels)
Partners Coffee — Cafe & Roastery
One of Greg's favorite places to grab a cup of joe! A big, vibrant coffee shop with indoor seating. (6 min walk from hotels)
Upstate Stock
Another great coffee and pastry shop next to McCarren Park that doubles as a store offering cute gifts and clothes made in upstate NY. (7 min walk from hotels)
Qahwah House
A cozy Yemeni coffee, tea, and pastry shop on Bedford. Greg recommends getting a small pot of Adeni Chai tea and a slice of Khaliat Al Nahl (honeycomb bread). (5 min walk from hotels)
Peter Pan Donut & Pastry Shop
A strong candidate for the best donut shop in NYC! Bonus points for its old-school feel and 60+ years in business. (12 min walk from hotels)
Frankel's Delicatessen
A Jewish deli that's got everything from acclaimed bagels with lox to pastrami and brisket sandwiches. A little on the pricey side, but very delicious. (13 min walk from hotels)
Bagel Point
A solid bagel spot with every option you can ask for! (12 min walk from hotels)
Joe's Pizza
Your classic, tried-and-true, always delicious New York City slice. You can't go wrong with a slice of Joe's! (8 min walk from hotels)
Best Pizza
A wood-fired pizza spot makes good on the promise of Frank Pinello (former host of The Pizza Show on Viceland) to match the high quality of the slice joints he grew up with in Bensonhurst. Shoutout to our friends, Kate and Nick, who led us here on an expedition for delicious NYC pizza during a past visit! (11 min walk from hotels)
L'Industrie Pizzeria
The "it" pizza slice in NYC right now. They have a signature burrata slice that is delicious, some options with quality meats, and a pizza or two that feature Mike's Hot Honey. (20 min walk from hotels)
McNally Jackson Books
One of Maria's favorite bookstores in NYC. Cosplay as her and take a half-hour out of your day to find a good book! (6 min walk from hotels)
Beacon's Closet
One of Maria's long-time favorite locations for thrift shopping (once featured in an episode of Broad City!) (10 min walk from hotels)
The Gutter
The location of Greg and Maria's third date! A fun spot to grab a drink and bowl a round. We recommend getting there close to when it opens or going late night if you want to avoid a wait. (6 min walk from hotels)
