Brooklyn - Top places to eat

Updated: Mar 25, 2020

It was my 8th time in my favorite city New York and this time we decided to spend more time in Brooklyn. We stayed at the brand new The Hoxton Williamsburg which is located in the heart of Williamsburg.

When in New York make sure to spend a couple of days in Brooklyn. Especially Dumbo and Williamsburg are not to miss. If you have enough time also visit Bedford and Bushwick.

What to do in Brooklyn?

Start by walking over the Brooklyn Bridge. During sunset it is really magical but to avoid the crowds try to go early in the morning. After crossing the bridge you will arrive in beautiful Dumbo. Here you can enjoy the beautiful view over Downtown Manhattan and grab a bite or some drinks. Some cool places to eat:

Atrium Dumbo - 15 Main St

Grimaldi's Pizza - 1 Front St

Brooklyn Roasting Company - 45 Washington St

Brooklyn Ice Cream Factory - 1 Water St

Luke's Lobster - 11 Water St

1 Rooftop Garden & Bar - 60 Furman St

Next up: Williamsburg. Williamsburg's main street is Bedford Avenue. Here you have many many great restaurants and bars where you can hang out. If you head to the riverfront you have a breathtaking view over Manhattans skyline. The best way to get to and from Williamsburg is to take the ferry which costs only USD2.75. This is will be one of the best commutes you'll ever experienced I promise.

The Hoxton Hotel - 97 Wythe Ave

Joe's Pizza - Best pizza - 216 Bedford Ave

Jimmy's Diner - Awesome breakfast spot - 577 Union Av
