Bocca Lupo New York

With a simple and sparse decor of wood and steel, there’s no lack for convivial atmosphere at the chic neighborhood eatery. In fact, the casual Italian menu of antipasti and panini begs for a bottle of wine and friends.

Old Hollywood New York

The Greenpoint accessories shop drips with nostalgia for a bygone era from the boudoir-style decor to the pinup bathing suits and feather headbands for sale. The focus is on jewelry with necklaces, bracelets, and rings from local designers like Digby & Iona, as well as stunning original pieces from the ’50s.

Von New York

Dark wood decor, marble countertops, and low lighting add a European vibe to this laid-back bar, where artsy types sip imported beers and wines by the glass.
