Mess Hall shares a backyard with the coffee shop next door. So you could theoretically hang out here all day (and you should, it’s very nice). The inside of the bar space is casual and pretty narrow, but there’s enough room to sit and play board games with some friends or hang out with a date and share a flight of beer.
East Harlem Botting Co. is a neighborhood brunch and burger spot to hang out with friends, your kids, or a TV.
Lido is a neighborhood Italian spot in Harlem that also does a serious bottomless brunch.
The original Patsy’s in East Harlem makes excellent pizza for a sit-down meal or a slice at the counter.
On the ground floor of a Harlem brownstone, this cheerful pizzeria serves Neapolitan pies and bottles of Italian wine for under $50.
