Things To Do

Brooklyn Winery

Evil Olive Pizza Bar

Geraldines SpeakEasy (Inside Evil Olive)

Best Pizza

NYC pizza is the best pizza. Bottom line. This is a neighborhood gem with an old school feel. DELICIOUS pizza, only three varieties. You can pop in and grab a slice, but seating is limited.

Sweet Chick

This is a great neighborhood restaurant. Serving Southern comfort food, but specializing in Fried Chicken and Waffles. It is great for dinner or brunch!

Cafe Mogador - Williamsburg

A delicious Moroccan style restaurant. Everything is fresh, delicious and their cocktails are pretty tasty as well! Great for Brunch, Lunch or Dinner. Ellens favorite is their Chicken Tangine.

Berry Park

A great place to watch sports, have some pub food and catch a great view of the NYC sky line!

The Meatball Shop

This is one of several MeatBall shops in NYC. Its affordable, delicious and can seat large parties of people. You can customize your own meatball order, (meat, sauce, pasta?) and finish it off with one of their delicious ice cream sandwiches! Ellen's favorite is the spicy pork meatball.

Five Leaves

One of our favorite brunch spots right across from the park!

Kellogg's Diner

This is a great diner! Amazing pancakes, affordable, diverse menu!

Radegast Hall & Biergarten

A great place to come for a beer. Its a traditional german style beer hall serving German fare.

Bagelsmith Bedford

NYC also has the best bagels. This place is delicious and has a huge variety of bagels and spreads. (Plan to wait for your bagel, this place is mobbed on the weekends.)

Brooklyn Standard Deli

A delicious deli selling all types of sandwiches and bagels.

Gimme Coffee

A great little coffee spot in East Williamsburg.

Blue Bottle Coffee

They make great coffee! Their New Orleans style cold brew is Dwight's favorite!

Eataly NYC Flatiron

Located in the Flatiron neighborhood of Manhattan. A place to shop for Italian groceries and eat Italian food! One of our favorite spots for a glass of wine, a sweet treat, and delicious pizza!

The High Line

If the weather is nice, this is a great place to come walk, see the views of the Hudson river and grab a bite to eat. Its an elevated park on an old train track. It runs from 14th st to 33rd st. I recommend starting at 33rd st and ending at 14th st, where Chelsea Market is.

Mercado Little Spain

Hudson Yards

9/11 Memorial

This is a must for anyone visiting NYC. Its a free memorial, thats very moving. I hear the museum is very interesting. (Buying tickets in advance is a good idea.)

One World Observatory

I hear this is a breath taking site! Most people recommend purchasing tickets in advance.

Westfield World Trade Center

This is a beautiful shopping center, with an Eataly and other food as well. Located next to the World Trade Memorial, its a breath of fresh air under ground, and makes for great photo opps!

Bowling in Brooklyn

The Royal Palms Shuffleboard Club

A super fun place to come and play games and drink yummy cocktails! Great for groups!

Brooklyn Brewery

Another neighborhood gem! A great place to grab a craft beer!

Pig Beach

Amazing BBQ... might be better than Dinosaur BBQ! (Dont tell anyone from Syracuse)

Other Half Brewing Company

A great brewery for local craft and specialty beers! (Does not serve food.. highly recommend PIG BEACH for after.)

North 3rd Street Market

A food hall packed with a variety of food stands. A great place to come with an indecisive group! They have mexican, ramen, pizza etc. (Soo many options!)

Artists & Fleas Williamsburg

A great little spot to shop. Its filled with local artisans selling a little bit of everything.

McCarren Park

A great park in our neighborhood. If the weathers nice, its a great place for a long walk while watching hipsters doing hipstery things.

Domino Park

A brand new park opened July 2018. Its where the old Domino Sugar factory used to be. (Designed by the same people who designed the Highline.) Great views of the East River and Manhattan.
