Why don’t we start with an oldie but a goodie, coffee and food down here in DUMBO. I’m in love with the new Brooklyn Roaster, their espresso is very good. And the crepe place seems to be improving a lot recently.
The BK Roasting Co coffee is also probably the best in Dumbo.
brooklyn roasting is incredibly good. I was there very early one day, before they officially opened, but they served me anyway. the espresso was so thick and delicious. I’ll be back for sure!
best food is tougher. superfine?
just got a cup of sumatra and a bag of beans! simply awesome.
They’re officially open now? How did I miss this? I need to head down there and get a bag of the Iris blend…

Anyone know how long the street construction on Washington, Water, and Main street is supposed to go? Im not expert but seems like they rip up the streets real quick but take their sweet time laying the blocks back down. Are they planning on doing all of Main St? It’s one of the worst ‘main’ streets in Dumbo.
our doorman asked the construction manager how long until they are done and he said right now they are projecting October…but that depends on Belgium sending the bricks on time…
The project should be largely done by the end of the summer.
