Czech-Tex pastries that are always fresh and out of this world! Try their season rhubarb in the summer and apple in the fall. Poppyseed is always a 5-star standby! Coffee is great and they have a garden with wifi.

Fun fact: this pizza place was Ray's coffee shop in the HBO show "Girls" for a few seasons. Now, they're back to serving some of the best pizzas in the neighborhood. Upscale but laid back, it's great for date night or family dinners.

If you've never tried Jamaican food, order from Taylor Made! We suggest starting with a Patty and side of coco bread if you eat meat. Vegetarian? Try rice and peas and side orders of mac n' cheese and sweet plantains.

The closest I've been to a boulangerie since living in Paris. Family owned and run, if you sit long enough in the sun to enjoy your coffee you'll no doubt hear a few folks speaking French and a song or two by Fela Kuti. Our favorite breakfast sandwich is a vegetal modified to be on their toasted croissant.

Order out a whole pie or single slice - we promise you won't be disappointed with this high quality but classic pizzeria. Our favorites are the vodka, white, or margherita slices. They also have outdoor seating and a few small tables inside and serve beer, wine, and local sodas (which you can also get to-go). Their sister, Greenberg's Bagels, is also a must-try!
