PARK SLOPE — Police are on the hunt for a pair of burglars who've struck three Brooklyn eateries — including one of the mayor's favorite hangouts.

Police released photos on Tuesday of the two suspects, who are wanted in connection with three break-ins that have netted them more than $27,000.

The first happened Aug. 18 at Cafe Dada on Seventh Avenue near Lincoln Place about 8:20 p.m. The thieves broke into a safe and stole $1,500 in cash, police said.

On Aug. 22, the duo used a crowbar to break into Bar Toto at about 1:30 a.m. and took $1,500 from the register, police said. The restaurant, on 11th Street and Sixth Avenue, is down the street from Mayor Bill de Blasio's Park Slope house and is a favorite hangout for the first family.
