Wine & Dine
Aurora
Aurora is a great Italian-style restaurant in the neighborhood. Highly recommend for dinner or brunch (because who doesn't want an espresso martini and a bowl of pasta at 11am).
Allswell
Allswell offers an amazing burger and other American classics with a more casual, cozy atmosphere. They also host a great brunch.
Casa Pública
Casa Pública is a Mexican restaurant and bar that offers sweet and spicy margaritas and tasty shared bites. Located right around the corner from McCarren park if you want to take a late night stroll after dinner.
Cafe Mogador
If you're looking to spice it up a bit more, Cafe Mogador serves delicious Moroccan-inspired cuisine. This is a great place to sample and share, so order some mezzes or a couple of entrees and dig in.
Joe's Pizza
While the best city slice is up for debate, Joe's is an institution for pizza lovers in New York. You can't go wrong with the classic plain cheese pie.
The Butcher's Daughter
For our vegan or vegetarian friends and family, don't let this name fool you. The Butcher's Daughter is 100% vegetarian with a number of vegan and gluten-free options.
Blinky's
A bit further off the beat and path, Blinky's holds a special place on this list as it's where we shared our first date. Enjoy a beer or cocktail in the backyard to walk down our memory lane, or find a place at the bar and chat with their awesome staff.
Woodhul Bar
Woodhul is a solid wine bar that also serves a mean cocktail. Indoor and outdoor seating make this a nice place to be on a warm day.
The Craic
Fancy an Irish whiskey or a Guinness on draft? Head to the Craic. Bonus points if you can split the G on your first swig.
Brooklyn Brewery
If you like to drink beer, this one explains itself. Chill, open atmosphere.
The Gutter
Feeling like a dive? The Gutter is the place to go. Grab a beer, play a game of pool, or bowl a few rounds on their vintage hardwood lanes.
Martha's Country Bakery
You already know we love a sweet treat! Martha's is a go-to for a morning coffee and pastry, or to grab a few cannolis for the drive home.
Bagelsmith
Can't wait to get your hands on a NYC bagel? Bagelsmith is the move. They have everything you could wish for - bacon egg and cheese, lox, tofu, the works.
