Food Scene

Typical Brooklyn coffee place... Tattooed hipster baristas who are a bit too cool for school, but friendly...Nice place for a slightly overpriced coffee and a snack. Good atmosphere though.

Drinks & Nightlife

Nice setting and delicious drinks. A bit pricey and sometimes a wait to get a drink, because cocktails are an art here, made to perfection. Located behind white tile wall with no sign. Speak-easy style. Great patio in the back during warm season.

Parks & Nature

Take a walk, go for a run, have a picnic, enjoy the changing seasons. Prospect park is a haven and I love it.

Not nature per se, but a great boardwalk and small park areas by the river. You have breathtaking views of Manhattan. Dumbo is a nice neighborhood too, to stroll around in. Visit the Ice Cream Factory, or for a splurge go to River Cafe....
