A Day In Bushwick | NYC 🗽

There is always something to do inBushwick ! Here’s a few of my favorite things ⬇️

1️⃣ Thrifting !

Bushwick has the best thrift / vintage stores ! Urban Jungle is definitely the best. It is huge and has tons of amazing stuff. The check out line can get a little crazy but it’s well worth the wait .

2️⃣Cafes !

Zatar Cafe & Bistro

Zatar is my favorite cafe ever and it’s located right here in Bushwick. If you love Mediterranean food you definitely have to check this place out. I suggest trying the Zatar mix so you can have a little taste of everything. The mocktails here are also super yummy !

3️⃣ Graffiti!

The Bushwick Collective

NYC is well known for its graffiti, especially in Bushwick. It’s definitely considered an artsy fartsy neighborhood (atleast now it is 😬) Just walking around you are bound to stumble across some amazing art. The Bushwick Collective is an outdoor art gallery that starts on Troutman. There are guided tours but why not save some $$ and do it yourself !
