This semi-suburban oasis is popular with young families and filled with mom-and-pop shops: a “more grown-up” part of the Brooklyn borough. That’s not to say it has no edge; amongst the cheesemongers and competing Italian bakeries are plenty of stylish shops, trendy bars, and restaurants lauded by true foodies. Well-maintained brownstones and carriage houses date back to the 1800’s and offer an instant time warp into tree-lined, classic New York.
A cozy, romantic spot with a beautifully curated wine and cocktail selection. Linger over the long marble bar with their Harvest Moon: a blend of pamplemousse, chinato, lime, and IPA. The dinner menu changes with the seasons, as the executive chef relies heavily on local farms to source the freshest ingredients. If weather permits, grab a seat on their back patio.
