Good news on the Park Slope bar front: The owners of Great Lakes, whose lease ran out recently, have reached an agreement with their landlord to stay in the Fifth Avenue space. According to several sources, the landlord was just testing out the market to see how much interest there was in renting the space (an ad for the location pegged the asking rent at $8,500/month). In any event, the bar’s not going anywhere for awhile. Cheers! GMAP

  1. “so you complain when everything turns into starbucks or a shiny new bank.

    and you complain that there’s a somewhat divey bar in park slope.

    which is it?”

    It’s both, actually. I like to complain. It pisses you off something fierce.

  2. Speaking of restaurants on 5th Avenue, the other day I tried Miriam’s for the first time. I ordered the ravioli (kreplach) and got LITERALLY 4 tiny ravioli on my plate–for $15. WTF?? Never going back.

  3. not sure…but the new place (yogo monster…ok weird name) looks like it’s going to bust open any day now up on 7th between union and berkeley.

    heard it’s frozen yogurt, but the decor looks SUPER fun.

    can’t wait to see what it’s like.
