Streetlevel: Athom Cafe in Bushwick
Athom Cafe opened a few weeks ago but its presence at 1096 Broadway in Bushwick makes it newsworthy enough to mention even at this point; as BushwickBK put it, “Bodegas and 99-cent stores come a dime a dozen here in the Washing Machine and Refrigerator District of Broadway, and cafés owned by real-life Parisians are…

Athom Cafe opened a few weeks ago but its presence at 1096 Broadway in Bushwick makes it newsworthy enough to mention even at this point; as BushwickBK put it, “Bodegas and 99-cent stores come a dime a dozen here in the Washing Machine and Refrigerator District of Broadway, and cafés owned by real-life Parisians are more unexpected.” In fact, the cafe–which currently features salads, pastries, sandwiches and omelets may expand to full restaurant fare–is located in a former appliance store. Anyone been?

Yeah- come on. I’m starting to get offended by bloggers referring to Bedford-Stuyvesant as everything but. The south side of Broadway is Bed-Stuy, not Bushwick.
Yummy!
I went to Athom yesterday when I got off the J train…
The cafe is really cute, I bought a apple turnover it was really tasty, I told the owner that Athom was featured on Brownstoner and to expect alot of folks to come by. I am really happy that this has come to the area!!
Tandem is the best! Two sisters. Recycled, repurposed, and handmade. Lovely, lovely, lovely. It opened about two months ago.
Tandem is thank god not faux speakeasy. That shit be tired. A very nice place in the middle of a historically badnews block. gooood drinks. Tasty lil snacks.
Oh, and yeah. On topic. Go anthom! Sounds cool. I’ll have to drag my self to that side of Broadway. I never seem to be over there.
Just looked up Tandem – it’s on Troutman!? When did it open? I feel like I’ve walked past it a million times. Is it faux speakeasyish?
Mopar!! No, I haven’t, I’ll have to check it out. I’m really only familiar with stuff up in Ridgewick/Morgantown. I guess I have some more exploring to do!!
Oh no, Dirty Hipster! Have you not been to Tandem? So beautiful. There are other bars closer also but I don’t know their names.
Haha Mopar – the few times I’ve been to any Beauty Bars I haven’t really smelled any nail polish (as i would have been out of there ASAP, as the smell makes me ill) But to each their own!
Not sure of the next closest watering hole – must be The Wreck Room on Flushing?
