Drinks & Nightlife

This is likely the best cocktail bar in NYC. It is expensive, fancy, and boasts an incredible cocktail menu. If the weather is nice, try to get a table in the backyard. Finally, trust their judgement with cocktails. They won't let you down.

The Ides has stunning views of the skyline and wonderful natural wines. Many nights there will be a DJ spinning music by bands like The Talking Heads and Prince.

St. Mazie is a sexy, New Orleans themed bar that transports you back in time. They have wonderful cocktails and live music most nights. Get there early and grab a seat for some of the best hot jazz in town.

Bakeri makes great pastries and coffee, but the real secret is the tiny backyard with koi pond. Grab a cappuccino and sit outside for a moment of tranquility in an otherwise busy city.

Parks & Nature

I love this park. It's never busy, and has this great long pier that stretches out into the East River. Grab a coffee from Ovenly, a nearby bakery, before relaxing and enjoying the view.

This is Brooklyn's answer to Central Park. It's huge. Filled with lakes, streams, trees, frisbee, and dogs to pet. I prefer this park over Central Park for how much more natural and wild it feels.
