  • Tip Rating:
  • Eat a meal/ have a drink in a restaurant/cafe with a garden!
    It never fails. The very first nice day in late march and the places with gardens, even if just a slab of concrete and a tree in the back, are PACKED with New Yorkers desperate for warm weather and foliage.
    My favorite restaurants with Gardens include (places with stars will get separate listings):
    - *Cheers Thai Restaurant in Williamsburg Brooklyn (Lorimer Stop)
    - *Life Cafe in Alphabet City
    - *Yaffa Cafe on St. Marks Place
    - Cloisters Cafe on E. 9th Street
    - Vera Cruz Mexican in Williamsburg Brooklyn (Bedford Stop)
    Trees. Flowers. Fountains. Fairy Lights.

    Things To Do: East River Park.
  • Tip Rating:
  • This is a great spot to take pictures, stroll, have a picnic, watch a ball game...you have an excellent view of the bridges to Brooklyn, as well as Brooklyn (of course) and the East River (jocosely referred to as 'Avenue E' by mobsters). This is where you see the fireworks on July fourth, too.
