With $6 pints and $8 flights, Good Beer is the perfect way to get to know some craft brews. It's relaxed, comfortable environment and friendly staff make this place hard to leave.
Damn, the Juicy Lucy is a good burger and a must-try for first-timers. Other must-tries are the kale chips (I have no idea what they do, but they are delicious!) and fried pickles (also top-notch).
The entrees can sometimes be pricey (around $24 for fish), but they are plate-licking good. Go to favs are the burger ($12), specialty cocktails, and freshly made donuts. Definitely get the donuts.
The best beer garden-esque location Manhattan has to give Bklyn a run for its money. $15 dollar liters & don't forget to try the grilled cheese.

This restaurant serves up delicious comfort food from all over in an environment that makes you want to linger. Think reclaimed barn wood, endless craft beer, pickled everything and cheesy grits.
A NYC must-visit. Of course, get one of the ramen choices, but don't forget the pork buns. Oh, the pork buns <3 They are delicious.
One of my favorite brunch spots in the city. Awesome food, great brunchy cocktails, and a cool, interesting environment. Poke around to take in all the taxidermy and vintage items.

Established 1910 by immigrant rabbi who sold from a cart. Continuously family owned. Handmade knishes cooked in the basement brick oven; a dumbwaiter connecting to the shabbily-nostalgic dining room.
