LET’S EAT 🤤
Food scene
Best coffee shop to go to in Flatbush. From the message to the art to the amazing owners. There’s nothing to not love about this place. My favorite thing to order is
‘Sorrel’,
‘Mango Lemonade’,
‘The Black Mamba’ (lavender and vanilla charcoal latte),
Bake and Salt-fish
Cronut
Chai latte with vanilla and oat milk
If you’re staying longer than 3 days ask for a punch card - on the 8th drink it’s free.
They also have events so be sure to follow them on IG : @lipscafe
See if you can snag a photo with Ms.Donna and Jamane - they are the owners.

Best beef patty ever! They have a variety of options. I like the split peas or vegetables one.
Ask for a CURRANT ROLL - it’s a cinnamon raisin roll that’s like no other.
Ask for BAKE SALTFISH (contains fish) these are big so one can feed two people
Ask for GRAPENUT. (Contain dairy but it’s worth it)
Combo:
Warm up current roll for maybe 30 seconds - add grape nut ice cream. You got yourself a Caribbean split!
They close early maybe around 5-6. Go early everything is freshly made.

Alright so - this place is you go to place for anything GREEN! I’m talking herbal remedies - natural herbs to make your self - gluten free flour - sea moss - vegan patty.
I usually get the green juice with extra ginger and a veggie patty. I love love love this place.
I go here when I have been eating like crap and want a restart. I come here when I have a bad hangover. I come here when I need my organic tooth paste. Visit this place once on your stay if you’re into a healthier option.

If you want to keep a tradition alive come here. This place has been around for YEARS since 1952. Rumors says they’ve been open even longer.
This place is so traditional you can feel how timeless it is. I like their classic take on breakfast. Come here one morning just to bask in the history. Don’t over romanticize it - just take it as is💕
The honey donut is my favorite

The story and how good these biscuits are!
You won’t find southern comfort food much in Brooklyn. This place is a great day time hang out spot for the weekend. You can come here with a group and relax. Drink beer and eat biscuits.

Favorite local pasta place.
The oxtail pasta is the best thing on the menu.
Mainly meat options but you can ask to take out or replace. Also have veggie options just limited.
I love this place bc this gives me luxury, class, taste, essence within a budget. You can come here solo or as a group. Make reservations before going

Love the vibe - think of a Caribbean version of Insecure but drinks!
Best in the summer but cool to visit and see if you just want a drink at the end of the week… and maybe a friend 😏Lol
This is a rum bar remember that when you order.

I’ve never seen a place that embraces The Haitian diaspora like this. Compared to KALS BAKERY - this is where you should go if you don’t know how to order like a local but want to still indulge in the culture.
I usually go vegan here. I get the legume with a side of plantains and eat it like a dip.
Everything on the menu is so good. I love the pasta too!
They also have live music and events.
