Hidden gem! Not just a bar, but a small club. Good food, and live music every night- usually old timey music, not rock/blues/hip hop. Classy spot with a nice interior similar to Maison Premiere. No cover charge and prices are very reasonable for the neighborhood.

I'm not just saying this because it is so close to my place- but this is one of the best bakeries in town. Breads, pastries, cookies, etc. Excellent Polish bakery that makes everything on site. At lunch and dinner time, they also have a fine steam table of Polish foods that you can get by-the-pound. Everything is made in house...They also sell coffee from early in the morning.

Hidden gem, on Gem Street!...Here's the deal- this is the place that makes and supplies smoked fish (mostly salmon- lox) for many of the shops and restaurants in the city, as well as nationally. They are the main supplier for Russ and Daughters. The deal is that they are only open to the public on Friday mornings- usually 7:30 or 8:00am to about 1:00pm. You can buy fresh sliced fish by the pound for bargain prices. Many different types. They will let you sample. Here's what you do- buy some from bagels from Bagelsmith on Bedford. Then go to Acme and buy some lox. Head to the park or back home to consume.

Most people will know Brooklyn Bowl, so I don't mark it on the map. The Gutter is like their cool, slightly grungy older brother. It's a bar with good selection of beer and an old 6 lane bowling alley imported from the Midwest. There is live music from local bands in the back.

Sightseeing
Not as famous or popular as the Brooklyn Bridge, but it's iconic nonetheless and starting to appear in a lot of shows, commercials, movies etc. Depending on the side street near the bridge, you can get some iconic postcard shots...There is a separate pedestrian/ biking level above the cars. The walk (or ride) across the entire span is quite long. Leads to the Lower East Side of Manhattan.
