A unique way to enjoy ramen (with a side of matcha beer maybe)? It's definitely higher priced than other great ramen in the area (such as Chuko) but it's definitely a more memorable experience. You can customise each bowl in this traditional ramen spot. It's also a good spot for people eating alone as they have personal booths available.

A Sea Food centric brunch, dinner or happy hour spot. Here you get reasonably priced food in a fun hip atmosphere. I like the general area, it is in full of bars and restaurants. I usually come here for Oyster Happy Hour (from 4-7pm, daily) featuring $1 oysters, $5 drought beer and $6 wine.

This is a neighbourhood favorite. Solid pizza and cocktails until late. Get a pie (you can customize) as slice choices are limited and you'll get better value for money. You can always take the rest home :)

Bizzare offers all kinds of entertainment and nice drinks 7 days a week. Their shows are fun and no tickets are required. They do sometimes ask for a donation however. A good place to go to if you want just a little more than a regular bar.

Essentials

Mr. Kiwi has well priced produce. But, my favourite thing about this shop are most definitely the fresh juices. A large fresh juice costs $4 here and you can add whatever vegetables and fruits you'd like.

Parks & Nature

It's a giant and beautiful park with plenty of space to have picnics, run or mingle.It's also surrounded by cute shops, restaurants and bars. It's a bit tricky to access via transit from here, I'd suggest to bike over there on a nice day.

Getting Around

Closest subway stations. There are buses even closer but most people tend to prefer the subway. Make sure to check for schedule changes due to constructions (there are usually posters at the station).
J, M and Z trains run here frequently. They are more reliable than the L and they run over ground until you reach Manhattan so you'll get a nice view of the Skyline on your way into the city.

This is the closest L train stop. This train will quickly take you to Williamsburg and into Manhattan. Due to constructions it's currently closed on weekends and late nights however.
