Such a Brooklyn fan of Bay Ridge, Park Slope, Greenpoint, Dumbo, Williamsburg, Brooklyn Heights,Coney Island. It's so so much to do you don't have to go to the city...
I stayed in williamsburg over christmas/new years and watching this actually makes me so sad...wanna go back so badly! During my stay, I’ve watched your videos to find some hidden gems in nyc. Thanks for that and sending love from germany!
Good tips here, for sure. I'd like to add a visit to the Orthodox Jewish community of the Satmar's , in South Williamsburg, essentially a few streets behind Peter Luger's ...Lee Avenue is the heart...visit Sander's Bakery or Koff's Bakery for KOSHER pastries and breads..or just walk around for the experience. On Bedford Ave between North 7th and 8th street is Ana Marie's pizza shop. Not the most spacious or cleanest venue but their selection of wonderful slices are varied and made with quality ingredients. On North 12th St and Whyte St is the WILLIAM VALE HOTEL...they have a great rooftop bar open at 4pm with skyline views over the East River. Enjoy.
THANKS MUCH BETTER EXPLANATIONS THAN OTHER GUYS. ..ALWAYS WE NEED..THE TRAINS CONEXION BUSES..AND GOOD PICTURES TO SHOW LATER A NEW TOURISTS COMING FROM SPAIN AND SOUTH AMERICA. IS DIFERENT FOR US.. KEEP GIVING THE BEST..I LOVE ANTIQUES AND SECOND HAND ✋ THINGS.. AFORDABLE NOW AFTER PANDEMIES..
I have been to Brooklyn many times. There are so many more places to see than the video can share. Just walk around and you will find hidden jems in most areas. I walked by myself and felt very safe.
As a foreigner tourist who have been to NYC a dozen of times, this is by far my favorite neighborhood. Things are getting more upscale and polished even faster than the rest of Brooklyn but Williamsburg still offers visitors something that cannot be found anywhere else. Also, yes Smorgasburg is pricy, but the food is insanely good! Great video. Love from Saudi Arabia.
Hey John, I just want to say thanks for your great tips! I am currently in midtown Manhattan with my wife and children and your tips are helpful on a daily basis. Keep vlogging man! Take care
Added at the perfect time, I’m here til Saturday and this has just changed my Friday plans! A day in Williamsburg it is, topped off by a visit to Best Pizza
i went there for a concert. About a 20 minute minute walk was a really cheap ymca. Clean, and worth the money for the night. All the hostels were sold out, but the ymca was really good believe it or not
I was over in NYC last week from England UK and visited this area. It's well worth a days visit! We also popped into the Brooklyn Brewery and joined a tour, which was $18 per head. They really looked after us for this, a couple of beers on the tour and then they take you to the tasting room for more drinks. Great info on the beers, the guys and gals there were really friendly and chatty. To note we were a little blurry eyed by the time we finished here!! Great videos keep them up, these were a great help when visiting!👍
I agree with most of those recs. Williamsburg has changed so much over the years, but it’s still a fun place. I’d also recommend Best Pizza as a great place for slices.
Williamsburg is one of my favorite neighborhoods in Brooklyn, I agree Williamsburg is underrated, you can get great views and less crowd than the Brooklyn Bridge. Domini Park is amazing too especially in the summer.
Shoutsout to Los Sures. That's the Southside of Williamsburg. It has since been forgotten with the hipsterish rise in Williamsburg. Shoutouts to all those there before!
Great vlog as always Buddy. Love New York and have been twice. You are my go to vlogger to get my New York feed until I return. Keep up the great work ❤️
Coming to New york and usa for the first time this april. I was very sceptical to go to New york, but after i have looked at all your videos i am super exiting. Thanks for your amacing videos
Domino Park looks awesome, I'll need to check it out. Seems like you get views similar to the ones from East River State Park. Smorgasburg is great, but it can get very crowded.
Robertas pizza in Brooklyn, order the bee sting, it’s hands down best pizza in nyc. Don’t judge the place by its sketchy looks from the outside lol. It’s 100% diff inside.
John Walsh Emmy Square is great and it’s in Williamsburg. Just for the record the original Roberta’s is in Bushwick. Us NYers are sticklers for identifying the correct neighborhood. Not only is it a respect issue it’s because Realtors keep changing the name of neighborhoods to bring up the market value.
Great recommendations.I’ve stayed in Williamsburg couple of weeks ago.Loved that neighborhood!!!So much to do.First place I’ve visited was L’industrie pizza you’ve recommended.I’ve had burrata and tartufo.Delicious!!!!Very nice crew working there.If I’ll come back to New York I’ll come back to this place for pizza.
Weird NY Pizza Story: My grandmother was a lifelong resident of the City - born on E 68th, across the street from Hunter College, in 1892 then lived on West 106th for years before moving to Forest Hills in the 50s until the 80s. She NEVER had pizza until visiting my dad and stepmother in SC in about 1980. Unfortunately, it was frozen pizza. I was shocked.
We love the City Reliquary Museum and wanted to point out to everyone to look for part of the original 2nd Ave Delicatessen sign that they have on display. They found it in the garbage and saved it! As lovers of old shops, signage and vernacular typography it’s a unique thing to see...It’s in the back room hanging above the doorway leading back to the front of the museum! We didn’t see it in the video but wanted everyone to know 🤗
I went to The Knitting Factory not to long ago. The actual event that was taking place was kind of boring. But if you’re going to go drink and hang out it’s definitely a spot that should be checked out.
Never been a big city lover but NYC is still a must see on my list. So much to do there, and plus the coolest vlogger and youtube lives there... oh and you do too. 😜😂
You forget to mention to explore the hasidic neighborhood in Williamsburg, it's really interesting how they live and how they dress. And you can also find some delicious bakeries in that area!
I’ve been living in Williamsburg all my life and there is definitely a huge change! Especially changing the names in between neighborhoods And Mccarren Park is definitely not Williamsburg it’s Greenpoint.
I use to have a friend who lived in Williamsburg. Since I live in Brooklyn I can take the B44 Select Bus Service from Sheepshead Bay to Williamsburg. People do say that Bedford Ave starts in Williamsburg. Well Bedford Ave starts in Sheepshead Bay and ends in Greenpoint but it goes thru Williamsburg. Bedford Ave 10.2 miles long. McCarran Park is nice I use to see my friend and another friend play kickball on Sundays.
Thanks for the great video. I’m from Argentina planning a future trip to NYC, and the city is totally overwhelming. I’m still trying to prepare an itinerary and all this info helps a lot
Another great video. I can't even begin to tell you how many Luger's burgers I've had for lunch... Excellent! So, how about an Eastern Queens video? Plenty of old school spots/restaurants/bars/parks! I'd love to show you around the Bayside area!
The Peter Luger burger is most likely a special house blend of various cuts that the restaurant came up with after talking to Fulton market which isn’t to say it’s not bad it’s just what every restaurant does now. Seriously go to Fulton early and check out their inventories especially their meat aging room as literally every cut of meat at a restaurant comes from there in some form. They also have a unique seafood array that you won’t find anywhere else. I believe you need special permission to get in the meat rooms but just wandering the market is worth the trip.
Hello, John,That´s a very nice video and I put it on my list next time I go there.I used to listen to cds at Virgin Megastore, HMV and Tower Records.It was very cool.Congratulations for your work.
I'm on the west coast and keep hearing on the news N.Y has Rats and is unsafe. I lived in Rockland county years ago and would like to visit N.Y again. You make it look like a fun trip! Is it safe is my biggest concern.
Hi!!! Im a huge fan of your channel from Argentina. I would like a video about what to do if you visit NY for the third time and you already did all the touristy things. Thank you!!!!

Hi, you could mention the large Orthodox Jewish community it's pretty interesting for tourists
Difara's pizza at North 3rd st market.

L’industrie is one of the best slices in NYC! Burrata is the way to go here. Their squares are amazing too

Peter Luger’s burger is amazing! Glad you went. One of the best values in NYC for the quality
Yes thank you for the tip
As a fellow Williamsburg native I approve! 👍👍👍👍👍👍
Brooklyn in the house, Brooklyn in the house....🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
Wow when we heard Peter Luger, thought gonna be steak but thanks for the insider tip! Burger looks yummy too🤤
I spent the day yesterday exploring Williamsburg yesterday and was listening to your video while walking around. I loved it!
Williamsburg is a fun spot. I really enjoy the rooftop bar atop Berry Park on the weekends. Great video as always!
The Williamsburg Bridge is a great walk! Always enjoy it and couldn’t agree more about it being an underrated bridge walk
15 dollars for a burger and fries in NYC isn’t a bad deal. Especially a burger as good as peter Luger’s
again, it depends on where you're eating.
go down the street on bedford and get a burger and beer for 5 bucks at dumont burger
@@MrIEatFingers yes I love eating there after I was out drinking with the boys lol
Lol I wonder if this is a joke or not? Hipsters are like unicorns. Ruining one city at a time 😂

Been there . Love it
technically that's Bushwick
I used to think robertas was the best too, but I explored more of nyc, south brooklyn alone has better spots than Robertas.

NealRigga Best pizza 🤤
That burrata slice 🍕from L’ Industie is over the top delicious 😋! Great choice.
James and Karla Yesss one of the best in NYC!
Food and Footprints- Greg and Jumi we definitely will try it on our next Williamsburg video tour! 🍕
Another great video...I need to go back this fall and explore brooklyn and eastern long island.
I loved the Dominos park with the mix of the industrial and the natural 👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks Mick

Food and Footprints- Greg and Jumi we will definitely try it when we don’t have our dog Hudson 🐾with us as there sadly is no outside eating area
Watching these videos just make me want to live in NYC.
Me thinking about my future: Hufht...Probably not...

NICE VIDEO...... KEEP THEM COMING..........
Going to flatbush, Brooklyn at the end of the month, great timing
You can also take ferries from Manhattan to Brooklyn.
Hahaha I remember listening at Sam Goody, Tower Records, etc back in the day
hahaha
I miss Tower Records and also Virgin Megastore at Union Sq
Changing up the camera style, love it
Had my camera pro with me, i can't do this every video haha.
Very well done review! (first time watching your channel)
8:25 reminds me of tower records back in the day

I have to correct you when you claim that McCarren park is a part of Williamsburg. It is actually a part of Greenpoint, Brooklyn
It’s on the border between the two neighborhoods.
Never been a big city lover but NYC is still a must see on my list. So much to do there, and plus the coolest vlogger and youtube lives there... oh and you do too. 😜😂
Hahahah funny guy

Fascinating! Especially the pizza and Rough Trade!
Great timing as we are staying in Williamsburg at the end of the month
Great choice :) So much to do.
Visit South Williamsburg..the Satmar community too.
Would love a new version of this video!
5 and 6 are in greenpoint. solid list tho.
Vinnies pizza in Williamsburg is definitely worth a stop
I’ve been living in Williamsburg all my life and there is definitely a huge change! Especially changing the names in between neighborhoods
And Mccarren Park is definitely not Williamsburg it’s Greenpoint.
Karen C yes there is.
Bad change or improving?
Beacon's Closet was the store Sam Fogarino - drummer for famed Willamsburg band, Interpol - used to work at.
Kokomo is a great restaurant in williansburg. The food is delicious
Awesome video Here Be Barr!!
I think you should do a guide about Downtown Flushing! :)
Should do Marble hill off the beaten path.
I use to have a friend who lived in Williamsburg. Since I live in Brooklyn I can take the B44 Select Bus Service from Sheepshead Bay to Williamsburg.

Have you made a video about Bedstuy Brooklyn? That is my favorite neighborhood when I visit NYC. I want to live there if I ever live in NYC.
👍🏼Great job on the video! That burger sounds amazing and the pizza looks so good!
Thanks for sharing the city with us. ❤️
:)
Williamsburg. Is. Da. Bomb 😎👍🏻
Thanks for joining us
Thanks for the great video. I’m from Argentina planning a future trip to NYC, and the city is totally overwhelming. I’m still trying to prepare an itinerary and all this info helps a lot
Great video.
I would recommend Rocka Rolla for cheap cold drinks. Great little dive bar in Williamsburg.
I got to visit Smorgasburg Flea the last time I was in NYC & I really enjoyed it! There were a lot of great vendors there
I'm looking to move to Williamsburg this Spring, so great timing on this one 👌
Bring lots of $$$
Muito bom o vídeo, moro em CT . Vou visitar Wiliannsburg quando ficar mais quente. Sucesso!
You are THE best!!! Thank you so much for doing this videos! Lots of love my man and kisses to Adriana😘

I have to come back for a return visit. The only time I spent in Williamsburg was during the NYC Marathon ;)
Great idea
Awesome, my favorite borough in NY 👏👏👏👏
Have you ever been to Duffs bar in Williamsburg Brooklyn?
Can you get a seat in Peter Luger without reservations (As a walk in just for 1 person)?
Brother hope you do these for all the cities/Burroughs
No clue 😅
@@HereBeBarr meant hope* lol.. live everything you do.. Gives me zen at work !
Seriously need your help finding Birria tacos! I’m craving consome and queso tacos 😭
Try Martha Country Bakery. 263 Bedford Ave, Brooklyn, NY 11211, États-Unis
Good bakery, for sure.
Great channel . Super helpful
Excellent 👍 video like always buddy
Your videos are awesome me and my brother visit NYC a few times a year. Go Yankees 😀
Would you recommend this Brooklyn day trip or Dumbo area???
