67 Burger
Head to this burger joint for made-to-order burgers, salads, all types of fries and crowd-pleasing milkshakes — including one made with beer. Unlike your average diner, 67 Burger serves wine and local beers, giving it a Brooklyn flavor, and uses only grass-fed, grain-finished, all natural beef from socially responsible farms.

Maison May
Maison May — formerly ICI — keeps its menu fresh by using locally sourced and seasonal ingredients in both its dishes and cocktails. The Orleans Negroni and Maison May Manhattan both feature New York-based liquors, and the beers all hail from the East Coast. While the menu may say “hometown pride,” the outdoor patio, with its string of lights and romantic ambience, feels like the South of France.
