This is just the perfect little corner coffee shop, and it just so happens to be attached to a sweet local bookstore. They've got great tea and shrub offerings along with coffee of course. They also carry prepared sandwiches from the 52nd Street Market down the street and locally-made baked goods.

B52 is a vegan cafe (trust me, you don't have to be vegan to enjoy it!) which features a fusion of American and Middle Eastern cuisine, house baked goods, chocolates, and a full service espresso bar. Definitely stop in for brunch on the weekends, some falafel and fries midday, or a latte made with house-pressed almond milk anytime.

One of a few breweries in the neighborhood, this one is definitely our favorite! Though it's a small space, the beer is worth standing if you need to. They also often have food trucks to grab a bite at.

Shopping
One of my favorite places to spend my paycheck: City Grows is a wonderful neighborhood plant shop, which carries all different sorts of plant-related things and is definitely worth a stop. The owner and the people who work there are all super knowledgeable and sweet.
