Five Leaves
A triangular corner fixture at Bedford and Lorimer, Five Leaves has anchored Greenpoint's dining scene since 2008 with grass-fed burgers, ricotta pancakes, and a nautical-tinged room that fills up early and stays lively past midnight.
Conceived with actor Heath Ledger before his passing and opened with his family's backing, this corner bistro built its reputation on a pineapple-and-harissa-mayo burger and honeycomb-butter ricotta pancakes that still draw brunch lines around the block. The kitchen leans into New American cooking with an Australian accent — think whole grilled dorade, lamb shepherd's pie, and market oysters — while the wraparound windows and sidewalk tables keep the corner-of-Bedford energy going from morning coffee through last call.
Best for: Weekend brunch, late-night cocktails, people-watching from the corner tables
