Food Scene

Fred's has the BEST Lamb burger! (among the rest of the wonderful comfort food style menu!) They are also super friendly & have a great atmosphere. Fred's Restaurant has a great bar too. The Bar stays open late & there are always a ton of locals hanging out having a great time socializing at the bar

BEST Mac & Cheese as well as a 27 layer Chocolate cake to die for! .. ok.. and the rest of the menu is pretty great too! (serving sizes are all appropriate to share with at least one other and sometimes large enough for 3!). Great atmosphere for lunch or dinner! Impeccable staff.

Just plan ol' great pizza starting at $3 a slice! Can't go wrong getting pizza from here! Fresh by the slice or whole pizza. If you go around the time school gets out there will be a lot of children and teens eating and will be quite full, FYI. Some seating, and always carryout & delivery available.

Parks & Nature

A great alternative to Central Park. There are several fenced dog runs (love the one between W 84th & W 88th) in Riverside Park as well as a running/biking path along the river. Often more quite than Central Park as well.

This area of the park (entrance at w 85th) is perfect for dogs and children! there is a children's playground right inside the park at this entrance as well as always many people walking dogs. This isn't the quietest part of the park, but there are a lot of beautiful spots here and a great place to socialize!

And.. don't forget .. entrance is always "pay what you can/want" so it's a great place to take your whole family!
