Food Scene

Amazing fresh bread and coffee beans here. NYC is very hard to come by high quality european style bread, but these guys are kings. Also whip up a quick pasta using their meatballs and pesto they make fresh everyday.

Drinks & Nightlife

Sit up at the bar in or the "Bar" part of Saraghina. They have a very nice outdoor patio for lunch/dinner/drinks but take bug spray as mosquitos are a problem anywhere in backyards in Bed Stuy. Drinks and food ain't cheap for Brooklyn but its a top spot.

Listen to many different Jazz artists at night. No cover charge but bring some cash to throw in the hat as it goes around. Good cocktails here too.

Parks & Nature

The largest park nearby. This ain't London people. But a nice place to grab a coffee and sit under a tree in summer. Good people watching.

Essentials

The best nearby grocery store. A lot of corner stores in the hood sadly have terribly unhealthy processed food stuffs and no fresh product, but not this one. The guys who run it are very funny and friendly. The have fresh produce and most things you need, just ask them. Also good for a quick cheap takeout sandwich or kebab.

Getting Around

Citibike right on our corner! Many get snapped up on our corner during week day mornings by commuters. Grab a citibike and enjoy a ride through brooklyn. NYC has an extensive bike lane network but watch for cars turning in front of you or people opening doors. Your Google Maps actually will keep you on bike lanes as much as possible if you use it for navigation and select bike mode. It's pretty safe to ride in NYC but people forget about bikes sometimes.
