My Favorite Local Places

From Brunch spots to late night speakeasy's & coffee/matcha shops - this is a list of my favorite places in the neighborhood and surrounding areas
NightLife -- Hidden gem, this speakeasy has really great ambiance, live music and amazing (but pricey) drinks. Definitely fun for 1 or 2 drinks after dinner or late night.

Breakfast / Brunch: Awesome breakfast or brunch spot -- Try and get here early or go on weekday because it's slamming packed on the weekends for brunch. The food and drinks are super tasty.

Breakfast / Brunch: Cute, trendy Aussie-style breakfast place (think avocado toast) just up the street on 164 Mott. Good for brunch but it's very popular so expect a wait of around 30 mins (especially on the weekends). The food is good, the atmosphere is hip, and one thing I really like about this place is the amount of healthier options on the menu .

Dinner/Nightlife: Good dinner spot for Mexican cuisine and cool atmosphere. The entrance is really cool. You enter through the deli, and there is an employee checking reservations at a "no entry employees only" door. When you walk down the stairs, the restaurant is large with dim lighting. There is a bar and lounge area to hang out when you are waiting for your table.

Breakfast, Lunch or Dinner: You walk a long alley of graffiti art covered walls, cool backdrop for a perfect selfie ;) The exterior teal entrance only becomes more adorable inside, as if walking into a cabin up north. There's a speakeasy upstairs called BanzarBar, you have to call ahead to make a reservation.
