Brooklyn Brew Cafe in Bay Ridge Won Best Coffee in Brooklyn
When I first found this little coffee shop on 79th Street, I shared about it because their coffee is delicious!
Brooklyn Brew Cafe is off 3rd Avenue, so you might not have noticed it. Now that it’s been voted the best coffee in Brooklyn, you must go and try it (it’s up the block from the Pour House.)
Marina, the owner of Brooklyn Brew Cafe, had been selling her delicious soups in Bay Ridge stores long before she opened Brooklyn Brew Cafe.
Soup lovers, stop by and grab a cup!
Brooklyn Brew Cafe also won best coffee shop in Brooklyn! The place is set up well and is very clean.
Congratulations to Marina, her family and staff! You created a place people love to come and get coffee!

May 8, 2025Vote Against Justin Brannan For Not Fighting For Coney Island
Yesterday, the NYC Planning Commission voted to approve demapping Coney Island streets for the Casino Project.
Coney Island residents submitted over 8,000 signatures against the casino on petitions. There were 175 comments made to the City Planning Commission – only 25 were in favor of the casino.
The next vote is the NYC Council vote and the council defers to the Council representative. Justin Brannan has not spoken out against the casino.
In March 2023, I told you why Justin Brannan would be the worst thing for Coney Island:
https://is.gd/MFOoW8
Democrat District Leaders like Chris McCreight still pushed for Brannan for Councilman even though saw Justin Brannan was lobbied. Brannan’s staffer, Kayla Santosuosso is trying to get his seat, but she never stood up for Coney Island this Winter when the people fought alone.
The Bay Ridge Democrats and Kayla Santosuosso know that Brannan didn’t help Coney Island, but still keep pushing for the man, who couldn’t stand up against lobbyists for a poor Brooklyn community.

Yesterday, there was a fire in one of the dryers art Classic Laundromat on 5th Avenue and 90th Street. Christopher C. shared these photos and a warning.
While the fire was put out fast, there was a lot of smoke that lingered in the laundromat. This caused the clothing to smell and there was soot on it.
Strangely, the sprinklers in the laundromat did not go on.
