To walk through the museum’s tranquil sculpture garden with someone you love is a rare treat. Later, sip exotic cocktails at Dutch Kills (27-24 Jackson Ave.), an artsy watering hole.
Run by a husband & wife team, this Astoria spot is our favorite for everything except coffee. Make a day of it with a matcha latte, curried pumpkin seeds, quality food & craft beer flights. Read more.
We've come around on this Queens spot, which has matured into a bar with a stellar tap list, reasonably-priced craft beer, and great food... check out the patio upstairs!
The produce is excellent, and so are the events. CSA is decently priced too. Only complaint is the Saturday pickup. Need to change to weekdays next year.
Great beer selection, excellent selection of meats and cheeses, super nice staff and a decent patio.
