Food Scene

Well, the NYT just called Roberta's once of the best restaurants in the world. Great local pizza joint with gourmet pizza and other fare. Crowded sometimes, b/c of all the hype.

Fabulous burgers (veggie and non), comfort food and full-plate breakfasts. Sometimes get a bit over-crowded at peak hours. Overall a really comfortable and unpretentious bar and restaurant. Wifi

Spacious Hipster coffee joint - a bit price, but, it's close by and opens fairly early. Good food, relatively quiet so you can have a real conversation or write (by hand or keyboard). Wifi.

Cute, but dingy place across form the Green Fitness Center. Loud music, inexpensive food. Writers fill the tables with their laptops, but don’t try to have a conversation.
