Really great little spot with very friendly staff. They bake their own breads daily and you can buy these at the counter if you aren't in the mood for a sit down dinner. Great vibe in there.

I honestly have never stepped foot in this place and only ever ordered one dish from them, but I get it delivered a few times a month because I'm slightly addicted. Northern Thai Curry is my jam!
But really, their shining star is the toasted coconut ice cream. Swoon! (They deliver pints on seamless!)

For my Vegan folks! Vegan latin food. If they have the enchiladas for their special that day, I highly recommend.

A real gem in my book. Their lunch foods are always on point and staff is super nice! They have table restrictions for computers at different times of the day to allow for the lunch crowd, but I've never had trouble finding a spot to camp out.

Yo. This is an addiction for real. Pierogies are my comfort food to the max! Totally in love with the potato and cheese classic as it is basically mashed potatoes wrapped in dough. But don't miss out on the sauerkraut pierogies--I like to top these with their house made apple sauce for the sweet'n'sauer vibe. Don't forget the dessert pierogies!

Huge backyard! Great for meeting up with larger groups of friends as they have quite a few picnic tables out back. They also got snacks and burgers and carry a good little selection of local brews.

These guys really do a great job with their beers! Love something you tried? They sell it canned for you to take home! Also provide food, which is always a plus in my book.
There is a great coffee shop attached if you need to get some studying/work done! And I believe they have live music upstairs. There is a backyard as well, but I seem to only go when it is cold and rainy, so I've yet to see it.

Parks & Nature
Such beautiful gardens!! I especially love the specialty indoor rooms for tropical and desert plants. But my favorite is the koi pond area. The cherry blossoms in the spring are amazing! And the rose gardens in the summer are so well done. They often offer classes and have art exhibits and other live events.

From a picnic in the grass to strolling the trails around the pond to playing a game of touch football or volleyball, this park is probably my favorite. In the summer they have an amazing concert list!

A bit of a trek to get out there, but you won't be sorry. Queens County Farm is the longest working farm in NY state and the largest farm within city limits at 40acres! Cows, sheep, pigs chickens and produce! You can take a tour of the grounds and the farmhouse or enjoy one of their many events and classes or just buy from their farm stand.
