Just about my favorite place in the world. If you're a movie buff and live anywhere near here just stop reading this sentence and go here immediately.
My favorite bar. Period. Fried chicken is even better than Pies-N-Things. Yeah, I said it. If it's Friday night and I'm not out of town, I'll be here, feel free to say hi.
Bacon appetizer. Creamed spinach. STEAK, dipped in the boiling juices. Since 1887.
Expensive? Yup. Trendy? You betcha. A line to get in? In Williamsburg? All true, but once you get up there and see the view of the sunset over Manhattan, none of that really matters.
The fried chicken is what they're famous for, but the brunch is my favorite. If you're skeptical of putting sausage gravy on eggs & cheese on a biscuit, don't be, it's amazing.
Brisket, pork, sausage, beans, sauerkraut, mac and cheese, GET IT ALL and make amazing little sandwiches with your potato rolls. Oh! and try all the different bbq sauces, they're all awesome.
The finest and most varied selection of food stands you'll ever find in one place. Bring your appetite.
Chef's tasting menu is like a non-stop flavor assault on your tastebuds. It's fully worth the $80 and I highly recommend it.
if you like a spicy margarita, and who doesn't, get the habanero. I tend to love it.
Everything is always amazing. Whiskey selection is impressive. And if you're an LCD Soundsystem fan, this is the place they have the final dinner in "Shut Up and Play the Hits".
$4 for a Bud Light in a styrofoam cup the size of your head. Great local vibe. Was here for New Year's last year, had an amazing time.
This place always has a crazy line, but it is DAMN good! The southern-style breakfast biscuit sandwich is amazing. Order it to go.
Maybe my favorite rooftop in BK and it doesn't even have a view. Get the frozen margarita, beware the brain freeze.
Super fun speakeasy. I never understand their "customers only" sign outside the bathroom though. They think someone is going to walk through two unmarked doors looking for a pisser?
When I work from home, I work from here. Delicious coffee, free wifi, good music, and if you get there before 10am, a place to sit.
Underrated. Unlike most East Coast spots, they offer refried beans in your burrito not just black vs. pinto.
Perfect ambience for a date night. Tons of fancy cocktails if you're into that kind of thing.
Not very big portions for the prices, but that being said, the food is spectacular, just manage your expectations.
I don't know that it's one of the two or three best restaurants in Wburg as many reviews suggest, but it is very solid.
Deceptively small bar with a big ass backyard. They serve some pretty tasty ramen outback too.
Most weekends it's packed with out-of-towners, but the food is good and the beer, while expensive, is delicious. Enjoy a week night!
Bar + Arcade = Barcade. Is there anything else you need to know? Excellent choice if you really don't feel like having a conversation with the people you're with.
Are you waiting in a line that will never end for brunch on Bedford? Duck in here for a coffee to enjoy during the wait.
There's nothing on the menu that really stands out, I just really like this place for some reason. Waitstaff is friendly and it's a lot roomier than most restaurants in the area.
It's expensive, service is meh, and the loud rap music doesn't really jive with candlelit dinner with wine. BUT, the pizza is delicious.
Too broke for the show? Sit down at the bar, order a $3 beer and watch the show through the huge glass window. Works great when they run the live sound into the bar, still kinda funny when they don't.
Tasty burgers, but these people saying it's better than Shake Shack must be smoking crack. Either that or they haven't had a double shack at Madison Square in awhile.
On Saturdays and Sundays from 4 to 8pm, every tap beer, wine and well cocktail ($4–$7) that you buy comes with a plastic dinosaur on the side that you can cash in for another drink. Read more.
Ever wonder why the McCarren park garbage cans are full of white styrofoam cups on nice summer days? The Turkey's Nest margaritas & beers to go are a Williamsburg staple.
Get a "Sportsman" at the bar and before you know it, you'll have the high score on Big Buck Hunter.
There are 24 draughts on tap, including Dogfish Head, 60 Minute & Delirium Tremens. The kitchen offers a classy panini menu - imagine a portobello/fontina/rosemary combo topped with a balsamic drizz. Read more.
Any poached egg special of the day is going to be delicious. The one I tried with sauteed watercress and pancetta white bean puree on country toast was fantastic.
The pumpkin pancakes with fried chicken, honey, and hot sauce are absurdly delicious. Savory and sweet, two for the price of one.
Awesome brunch, but be prepared to WAIT. Try the Egg Rothkos or the Biscuits & Gravy. Less of a wait for dinner, when you should try the Fried Oyster Sandwich or the Carolina Kale.
A popular brunch item is the two-eggs any style, made with farm-fresh eggs, house-made marmalade and locally sourced bacon or sausage Read more.
You know how good that sausage, egg, and cheese from McDonald's is, but how bad you feel after eating it? Get all the goodness (and more) without the remorse after with Reynard's breakfast sandwich.
