Wood burning pizza oven, great cocktails. Bakery next door makes wonderful bread to-go. This is a popular spot, so it's best to arrive before 6pm. Otherwise, you can wait in the tapas bar and they'll call you when your table is ready.

Essentials

We love Papas! This is our local block Bodega (just up the street on the corner of Quincy and Tompkins) and it has everything you need in a pinch, from basic grocery items like milk/eggs, ice cream, beverages, a full deli and prepared sandwiches, and literally the BEST hot Dominican- style lunch bar we know of. They open from about 7 AM to 10 PM and are very friendly! They also have an ATM and a good beer selection.

We can only buy spirits in liquor stores in NYC. This is the closest one to us. The staff here are very nice and professional, and all the local neighbors shop here for standard liquor brands (and basic wines.) For a better, speciality selection, check out BedVyne Wines a few blocks down Tompkins Avenue.
