A great sports bar, TONS of outdoor seating! They set up a projector during games (right now, The World Cup!) and the crowd is very lively and exciting! Great place for a burger & beer.

Great coffee, fantastic New York style bagels, charming little atmosphere! They often have open mic nights and poetry readings and all sorts of fun things. They also have an outdoor back patio!

Even closer coffee! For when Dunkin Donuts will just not do. They also have a decent brunch on the weekends (I recommend the Cafe Latte Egg Wrap & Sweet Potato Fries). Service is a little slow.

Shopping

If you must go to Target (believe me I freakin' love Target) there is one just across the river! Walk east on 145th, then turn left on River Ave. Once you are done-- hop in the taxi line, $10 home!
