New Restaurants Coming Soon To Park Slope, Prospect Heights, Carroll Gardens
Lots of new restaurants will be opening up around Brooklyn in the coming weeks.
Here’s what we’ve spotted during recent wanderings around the neighborhoods of northern Park Slope, Prospect Heights, and Carroll Gardens.
What have we missed? If you know of anything new opening up soon in your neck of the woods, please let us know at editor@bklyner.com.
Park Slope
Mr. Wish, 88 Fifth Avenue (between St. Marks Place & Warren Street)
A bubble tea shop is coming to the northern end of 5th Avenue! The Taiwanese chain appears to have several locations in Asian as well as a couple in Queens.
Their beverages are made with fresh milk and fruit and include milk tea, fruit tea, diced fruit tea, smoothies, as well as a “new” item called fruit vinegar which comes in kumquat apple vinegar and honey apple vinegar options.
The Fifth Avenue outpost of Mr. Wish will have a soft-opening this Sunday, August 20 and its grand opening next Thursday, August 24. To celebrate the new shop, they’ll be offering buy-one-get-one-free drinks for one week!
Corner Delhi, 447 Bergen Street (between 5th & Flatbush Avenues)
“Bombay to Brooklyn” the website for this upcoming new restaurant reads, adding that the menu will feature “locally sourced” “contemporary Anglo-Indian fare.”
BKLYNER stopped by the charming spot Wednesday afternoon and learned while they look ready to welcome diners, they won’t actually be open for business for another four to six weeks or so.
The photo above was taken a few weeks ago, prior to their removing the paper from the windows, and the interior looks great! You can take a sneak peek at their website.
Milk Bar, 204 6th Avenue (at Union Street)
Prospect Heights’ popular café for breakfast, brunch, lunch, coffee, and drinks is opening a second location on the corner of 6th Avenue and Union in the former 6th Ave. Gourmet Deli space.
According to a recent Instagram post, they’ve been busy renovating the landmarked site and plan to open some time in September.
Prospect Heights
Stocked, 635 Vanderbilt Avenue (between St. Marks Avenue & Prospect Place)
Former Union Square Café chefs and Prospect Heights residents, Matt and Lesley Fulton, opened Stocked in 2013 offering fresh options for breakfast and lunch for the whole family.
After a fire last summer, the owners have been struggling to reopen the restaurant/café. A sign on their door earlier this week indicates they are trying their best to reopen soon.
Chocolateria, 609 Vanderbilt Avenue (between Bergen Street & St. Marks Avenue)
Park Slope’s chocolate and coffee boutique recently opened a second outpost in Prospect Heights. Stop by for a cup of Illy coffee or a glass of wine, a pastry, and of course, chocolate.
Carroll Gardens/Boerum Hill
Barely Disfigured, 257 Smith Street (between Douglass & Degraw Streets)
As reported back in May, the team behind La Cigogne on Union Street is opening up a sleek cocktail bar on Smith. Originally slated to debut in July, the new opening date is scheduled for some time in September.
Black Forest, 181 Smith Street (between Wyckoff & Warren Streets)
Fort Greene’s über popular German biergarten and kaffeehaus is opening a second location on Smith Street, so you won’t have to travel too far to get your fix of authentic schnitzel, wurtz, spatzle, and beer.
Black Forest’s owners, Ayana and Tobias, recently announced the happy news on Instagram.
Panzerotti Bites, 235 Smith Street (between Butler & Douglass Streets)
A new spot serving up “original Apulian food” (Apulia is a region in southern Italy) is coming to 235 Smith. Panzerotti are similar to turnovers or calzones, made with fried dough and filled with tomato, cheese, veggies, or meat. The eatery does not appear to have website yet. Does anyone have any info?
