Another grocery store with a much larger selection of organic food, and a larger selection of food in general. Also sells beer and other spirits. Bit farther of a walk but still quick, 12-15 minutes.

This is the closest laundromat, nice owners. Coin operated (quarters). They will exchange cash for change if needed and there’s an ATM inside if you need it. Very busy on the weekend, recommend weekday or weeknights to get your laundry done!

My favorite nearby watering hole, classic bar. Very large selection of black velvet paintings adorn the walls. Great food, mostly Mexican, though they have a happy hour special for a burger w fries and a pint of beer for $13. Weekend brunch is great too. Just down the street a few blocks!

Another cafe but newer to the area, they also have good coffee, and the food is delicious! Not as many choices coffee wise, but more food options making it a great lunch spot. Very close as well.

Best pizza this side of the river (Brooklyn) Seriously it’s great. The wait can be long, they do have a separate slice outpost if you’re in a hurry.

An East Village staple, my favorite pizza in Manhattan. Full bar, great Italian food, and priced moderately. One of my favorites.

Another great pizza spot, a close tie with Roberta’s for me. Also gets busy in evenings if your impatient there’s a slice spot around the corner. Near Transmitter Park if you’d like to walk dinner off afterwards.

Come check out Greenpoint Brooklyn’s views of Manhattan. This park is newer, and shows more middle to north of the Manhattan skyline than Brooklyn Bridge Park.

Places to consume spirits
I may be biased as I worked here for a few years, but has one of the best beer selections in New York! Shuffleboard table and patio out back make it a great place to hang out and relax and drink!
