Food Scene
Such a great coffee bar and bicycle shop. There's local Brooklyn beer and the place is decorated with old bicycles. If you want any info about biking the city or bike polo, ask the bar staff.

THE Best pizza in the Navy Yard/Ft. Greene. I think it rivals any NYC Pizza. Can deliver or eat in.

Everything Else
I know this is pretty far, but it's so worth a visit. Every Wednesday and Saturday they give free wine tastings and classes with experts. So fun. Call them before going. You need to reserve a place.
