This semi-suburban oasis is popular with young families and filled with mom-and-pop shops: a “more grown-up” part of the Brooklyn borough. That’s not to say it has no edge; amongst the cheesemongers and competing Italian bakeries are plenty of stylish shops, trendy bars, and restaurants lauded by true foodies. Well-maintained brownstones and carriage houses date back to the 1800’s and offer an instant time warp into tree-lined, classic New York.
The Mile End Delicatessen serves up Jewish deli classics alongside more expectedly “Brooklyn” dishes. For example, if reubens and smoked brisket aren’t your thing, satisfy your inner hipster with charred bok choy or salt-baked whole beet. No matter your preference, be sure to dabble in their house-made pickle plate - an array of sweet and crunchy pickles to tickle your fancy.
