Cuts & Slices
93 Howard AveConvenience and authenticity. Please please try their oxtail pizza. You will eat your slice and be begging for another before you can get home.
This one is a twofer because it's not just the amazing sweet treats of Butter & Scotch but their sister company Love-Nelly which boasts a cult-following for their empanadas. Wed - Sun 8:30am - 3pm Luncheonette. This spot is super cute and convenient. You won't beat it.

Local Parks
These are the neighborhood hang outs, the playgrounds, the trees, the grass, all that good stuff and more. It's a breath of fresh air away from the loud cars and grimy streets. So go sunbathe, walk your dog, ride a bike, or play in the snow! You'll enjoy it.
This little neighborhood park is quirky during the day. You'll find kids on the playground, lovers picnicking under a tree, skaters riding past the evading joggers, dogs catching frisbees and playing with each other. At night locals enjoy gathering with music and food, and can get lively. I wouldn't call it dangerous at night, but I wouldn't plan a moonlit stroll. Nevertheless the park is a neighborhood staple and a cute daytime getaway for families to take their kids to the playground, exercise junkies looking for a sunny run, and doggos who love chasing balls and sniffing booties.
Update as of 5/31/22: half of the park is under construction and the playground is not currently available (sad face*).

Alright, okay, just a quick question. Do you like music? Dancing? Drinking? Surely you like drinking. Are you gay? Lesbian? Trans? Queer? An ally? It's 2021, we're all something. So you're single and ready to mingle. Or partnered and looking to party. Great relationship but need to mix up the boring shit? It doesn't matter who you are, whom you're with, where you came from.

So stop by, grab a tasty cocktail and tip your barkeep, watch a drag show and tip your Queens, grab a smoke in the backyard and tip the coatcheck. Just tip us, okay! And have a good ass night.

It's Saturday night and you're twiddling your thumbs at home thinking, "If only I knew where it was popping off then surely I would attend." Wow, your inner voice speaks very proper English. Anyways, 3 DOLLAR BILL IS POPPIN OFF!!! They've got drag, they've got DJs, they've got a huge bar with efficient yet apathetic barkeeps (I'm lookin at you Daniel). Where was I? oh yeah, they've got an outdoor hot bar with latin flare, they've got a dance hall, a stage room, circuit parties, non-gendered bathrooms!!!!! hang on, I need to catch my breath. . . . . Okay, so yeah. Don't go on a random Tuesday because it'll be pretty dead. But the weekends are litty y'all 🔥🔥🔥 😜 😆 🔥🔥🔥 check their website 3dollarbillbk . com/rsvp for calendar events.

Not going to lie, I have yet to actually show up to this place. However, one of my ex-roommates assisted in founding it and I can vouch that he ALWAYS told me about how much he laughed. Plus I mean, come on, they market themselves as a "bushwick brooklyn's coolest indie-alternative speakeasy comedy club (and only one lol), and also truly the most affordable comedy club in nyc...this is where you'll discover future famous comedians before they're famous." So I mean you have to love a 33 word description. Especially an "indie-alternative speakeasy" in "bushwick brooklyn"!!! Especially b/c they're not really in bushwick; that's Ocean Hill baby lol but anyway, Saturdays they have a $15 cover ($10 online) for stand up, so hit the atm and tip your comedians, b/c you gonna be laughin. Check there website tinycupboard . com for more info.
