Dumbo

Standing for Down Under the Manhattan Bridge Overpass, DUMBO got it’s name in the 1970s when residents of the then manufacturing district thought a catchy name would attract developers. Home to factories, warehouses and the birthplace of the cardboard box, Dumbo wasn’t considered a bustling neighborhood until the late 1990s, thanks to the development of a strong arts community. Today, over 500 tech and creative companies with more than 10,000 employees occupy a 10 block radius. While what they create has changed over time, this area has always been home to makers, innovators, and dreamers.

Almondine is revered for their flakey on the outside-soft on the inside-almond croissants, but be sure to get there early, as they tend to be gone by afternoon. In addition to their wide array of French pastries and deserts, they also serve a variety of quiches and sandwiches. With limited seating and no wifi, this is not the place to camp out but a great place to grab a coffee and a sugar buzz to go.
