late night eats

Albaz, on Flatbush by the 7th Ave subway station. Great late-night cheeseburger!

I think the one on the corner of 4th is 24 hours. Smiling is usually open pretty late too. The donut shop is a great late night stop.

If you want a cold, stale bagel, the bagel shop on 5th + garfield is open 24 hours.

Albaz is 24 hours. if you want a full, sit-down meal, go to Tavern on Dean in PH - their kitchen is open mega late (3 a.m. on weekends, I think).

yup, that's where it is. it's been there for a hundred years. (ok, i'm lying. but a very long time)

Yep, Daisey's is 24hr, as is Katina's on 7th & 12th....

7th Avenue Donuts by 9th Street and 7th Ave. Open 24/7/365. Perfect for when you're bombed and don't give a shit about what's on your plate.

When drunk and struck with pizza cravings late at night in Park Slope, I've pounded the pavement and retreated back to my den empty-handed. I do like Mango, but found myself sprinting there one Saturday 5 minutes before midnight, busting through the door Indiana-Jones style to beg for food before they closed.

Yep. The Greasian (Grecian) Corner at 4th St & 7th Ave.
The owner's an asshole and his son is worse.
Greasy, indeed.

You're not his landlord.
I know his landlord(s) aka co-op board.

Dee Dee closed awhile ago. A falafel joint took it's place. Now, I believe that place is shut down as well.

hey, we have a DD on 9th street and 5th ave, (and 2nd ave and 14th street). sadly, chain businesses can take over independent mom and pops' (rite aid, barnes and noble, starbucks, et alia.) but i have to believe there's another side to that coin: more jobs for people here, and more potential customers brought to 7th ave.)

and i won't hit rite aid because of the "emergency contraception" thing (and because their pharmacy staff has much to be desired. like a lack of decency, personality, and following the HiPPA laws and speaking with you about your drugs in a loud public manner)

Did you mean 3rd & 14th? 'Cause that's my DD, and I can tell you another advantage of chains -- they can afford to operate in places like this where a nice mom-and-pop might not thrive. Based on observation over the last couple of years, I'm pretty sure the drive-thru business keeps the DD on third open, so that it can keep me supplied with sweet, sweet caffeine.

yes, you can get through the drive thru at 15th, which is why i think it's there. i don't happen to love DD coffee, but the convenience of the drive-through when i'm heading to jersey to my mom's (that's pretty much why i'm heading that way, if i'm heading that way) makes me stop every time.
