Amazing Miami/Cuban cafe. We highly recommend making the short trek (it’s only 3.5 blocks farther than Little Skips) to try one of their Cuban Sandwiches and a Cafe con Leche.

Quick take-out pizza spot. They don’t serve any meat, so if you’re a vegetarian or vegan you’ll enjoy this place. They also have vegan pizza. We think the vodka slice / pie is the winner at Norbert’s.

Real NY pizza. Brick oven. They also have excellent hero’s (subs, hoagies...etc.) and pasta dishes too. It’s mostly take out but you can sit down and eat there too.

Excellent brunch and dinner. The burger is great, the short ribs are great, and the braised pork ribs are terrible! Just kidding, they’re amazing too.

British food, which isn’t normally a thing that people would be interested in eating by choice, but in this instance it’s very very enjoyable. Gluttonous types of dishes like smoked eggs in butter.

Amazing Vietnamese food. Traditional in that he won’t serve Pho or Banh Mi for dinner, only during lunch. Go for either and you'll be psyched. Great wine list. Great entrees. Great coffee too!

If you don't mind waiting in the bar tent out back for 2 hours you'll end up with the pizza that put our neighborhood on the map. The #1 hot spot in Bushwick and the food lives up to the hype.

Drinks & Nightlife

Great for dinner. Excellent burger, meat and cheese plate, and we hear that the pork chop is a force to be reckoned with. Fair prices for very high quality food. Solid beer and wine selection.

Essentials

A local favorite, right on the corner of the busy intersection near the train. A nice natural food store for groceries. An excellent Haribo selection and they also make fresh juice squeezed!

A large supermarket. Much less expensive than Mr. Kiwi’s but not as high quality. If you’re looking for anything food related you’ll be able to find it here. Lots of Latin food items as well.

Arts & Culture

A movie theater that serves food and booze while you watch movies. The food is great and the prices are super reasonable. It’s actually cheaper for the movie ticket than going to the normal cinemas.

Sightseeing

A public park built on a 1.45-mile-long elevated rail structure that used to be a train platform. It’s difficult to describe but we assure you that you’ll love walking along it.
