Drinks & Nightlife
The burgers are delicious, the kitchen is open until 11, and then after that it's a dance party in here. Love this place if you wanna get down like it's 'a Spike Lee Joint.

Arts & Culture
One of my favorite museums in the city. Enjoy some contemporary art you might not see at MoMA, Manhattan, with that low-key Queens vibe. Plenty of good restaurants in the vicinity, too, and a 15-minute walk to Greenpoint, Brooklyn.

Everything Else
Classic NYC bodega. The guys that work here are, hands-down, my favorite neighbors. Sandwiches are cheap and delish for a meal on the fly, and it's a hoot to catch some of the local AM banter.

Also serves alcohol and food, because here in Queens, we do it all. This used to be my favorite cafe in the neighborhood, and has since changed hands, but it looks like they kept the best of what 60 Beans had to offer, so I'll give them a shout!
