Black Forest Brooklyn

Black Forest Brooklyn is a staple for anyone who craves German cuisine but who isn’t too keen on the long flight there. The biergarten and kaffeehouse has become a staple for traditional German dishes, with a draft beer to match any palate. Sitting at the communal tables and taking in the cozy atmosphere is a perfect way to enjoy a personally built schnitzel, or freshly made wurst. Both indoor and outdoor seating make this the perfect venue for indulging your inner foodie and taking a well-deserved breather.

Olea

Olea is your culinary ticket to the Mediterranean; its pan-Mediterranean menu with gastronomic influences from Italy, Greece, and Spain will whisk you away to Europe. Extensive menus for every meal feature both traditional dishes and unique innovations. Olea’s high wood-beam ceilings and specialty cocktails give you a break from the hustle and bustle that await you once you step outside.

Baba Cool Café

Looking for Instagram-worthy food at the friendliest shop in town? Baba Cool Café is your best bet. With breakfast served all day, you really can’t go wrong at this Brooklyn-based restaurant. Not in the mood for breakfast food? The sandwiches, salads, and baked goodies like apple honey cake and lemon ricotta biscuits are sure to satisfy. With vegan, gluten-free, and dairy-free options also available, grab a chair and enjoy some of Baba Cool’s delicious bites over your morning paper.

Smashburger

Smashburger is one of the hippest burger shops in the neighborhood. With freshly made burgers and sweet shakes, it’s perfect for on-the-go eats or a delicious lunch out. They take burgers to a whole new level with choices like truffle mayo and Swiss cheese or spinach and goat cheese. The chicken sandwiches and salads are also not to be missed.

Roman’s

In search of a new restaurant with a rustic atmosphere? Then give Roman’s a try. With a seasonal menu that changes daily, you’re always bound to try something that will keep you coming back. Their extensive wine list combined with other delectable cocktails will have you coming back on weekends and weeknights.
