Neapolitan pizza from a wood burning oven, a neighborhood favorite. Also has a great coffee bar and bakery with delicious pastries and provisions in the AMs. Check the hours on goo-gle-maps before you head over because they usually only do pastries and coffee on weekends

Easily the best bagel in Bed Stuy. I recommend the P.E.C - Pastrami, egg and cheese on an everything bagel. It will take about 30 minutes to get your order, so recommend ordering ahead online for pick up. Outdoor seating only, and I recommend taking a city bike or the train here. Get a donut from nearby Fan Fan donuts while you are at it :)

A popular pizza shop frequented by locals in the neighborhood, and was put on the map by some celebs and NBA players that love it. Unique toppings like chicken & waffles or oxtail & shrimp. Enjoy a slice in Saratoga Park if the weather is nice :) Line used to wrap around the block, but the hype seems to have died down a bit. This is takeaway only.

Part cocktail bar, restaurant, coffee shop. Narrow little place so arrive early for a guaranteed table. Live music every night, this is really special little spot. A favorite for sure but either go early or you's probably wait in line for the second seating of the night.

This bakery is actually called Bread & Butter, 53 Rockaway Ave is the address. I am not sure why it's not showing up as a business that I can add in this guidebook, but it's a must hit in the neighborhood! They serve up yummy pastries and sandwiches. Must tries are the honey bun, the Ube morning bun, and the cacio e pepe foccacia.
