Get a lobster roll (duh) but also, pitchers of Lobster Ale and the backyard area. What summers in Greenpoint are for.
If you can go by this place without being floored by the smell from outside, you are a robot. Get real and stop in for bakery-fresh goods.
Garden out back is nice when the weather abides and some tasty reasonably-priced sandwiches on the menu. Try the chorizo and manchego on ciabatta.
Want cheap sushi without sacrificing quality? This is it. Amazing 3-roll deal + soup/salad + unlimited sake for < $12. Say whaaa?
Good neighborhood coffee spot with some good chai too. Nice for reading/working (wifi = NetGear81, pass = helpfultomato851) and people watching on Franklin. Sandwiches and soups too if you're hungry.
Get the grilled plate to share (options for parties of 2 or 3) for a meaty, filling meal for <$12 each. When in (Brooklyn) Poland!
Don't expect to eat the burritos with your hands (as this is still East Coast Mexican food we're talking about), but it's still pretty solid. Call ahead, they're nice.
With their beer selection, shuffleboard and roomy back deck with horseshoes, its a wonder this spot always strikes the optimal crowd/room balance.
They offer almond milk as an option for the beverages. Delicious. Very friendly staff to boot.
Paulie Gee is a super friendly owner who makes you feel totally warm and fuzzy for eating pizza in a converted barn. Favorite Pie: the Hellboy, which is especially delectable if you dig spicy.
A terrific addition to the neighborhood. Staff is warm and friendly, and boy can they bake. Personal favorite: the chicken pot // smoked ham & cheddar handpie.
This place is the best. Get the Medellin and a caipirinha. Authentic Colombian food on the cheap!
Those cozy booths are among the best bar real estate in all of NYC. Perfect for dates. Plus, reading their awesome sidewalk signs is among the best things about walking in Greenpoint.
A chill neighborhood bar, Achilles Heel is run by the same group as Marlow & Sons and as such, has a quality daytime coffee program, also featuring George Howell. No food and not a work space. En savoir plus .
Welcome to the northern-most resto in BK, where you'll find one of the best dining atmospheres anywhere. Flatbread is a no-brainer, but also get on the brussels sprouts, kohlrabi tacos and roast lamb.
Inexpensive, fresh, delicious Middle Eastern specialties. Get the falafel pita & baklava! 👍Sister location of the N.7th St Oasis. Yet another reason Greenpoint has left Williamsburg in the dust.
Glowing staff, delicious coffee and pastries, great decor. The kind of place that'd be great to sit, work and chill.
They make a mean michelada complete with Old Bay! The backyard is also partially covered so you'll be safe from the sun/rain.
Heaven has descended into the best nabe in NYC. The best hand-pulled noodles in all the land. You know the drill (N1, N2, N3...). Pro tip: Tap this tip's "Read More" for real-time store traffic meter. En savoir plus .
Speakeasy alert! Walk past the washers, dryers and through the back door with two washer windows to find a bar surrounded by the holy grail of pinball machines. Can't help it if we're tilted...
The sandwiches are great (particularly the Martha, Eagle Street and Greenpoint), but take a while so call it in first.
Though it lacks the scenery of its Brooklyn Heights location, it also lacks its packs of tourists, and this is a good date-ender.
The Earl Grey might be my favorite ice cream flavor anywhere on the planet. Life's good.
