Rebar, in Dumbo, is mostly (duh) a bar. The menu is appealing, but there’s generally a problem of thinking about food when the temperature is in the 90’s outside. I don’t think the tripe is too popular lately. These cakes, on the other hand, look magnificent, almost tempting.

Freddy’s, beloved dive bar of Prospect Heights, was displaced by the Atlantic Yards. Before the wrecking ball came, owners rescued the bar’s contents and brought them to the new location, on Fifth Avenue (bet. 17 & 18), in the old Ellis space. The new Freddy’s is full of character, a place for grown-ups to hang out, watch the game, and have a pint with a friend.

Before the Double Windsor moved to the neighborhood, catty-corner to Farrell’s, you pretty much had to do your drinking at home if the cop & firemen bar wasn’t to your taste. During the day, the Double Windsor serves sandwiches and artisanal beer, then they kick the kids for happy hour, and eventually it turns into a hipster scene. You’ll almost feel like you’re on Fifth Avenue in Park Slope.
