A Brooklyn-style craft-brew oasis in the middle of the bustling Arthur Avenue Retail Market, this is the place to sample local quaffs—frosty beverages from the likes of Gun Hill Brewing Co. and Third Rail Beer.

Mike's Deli
2
2344 Arthur Ave.
It’s a first-rate spot for traditional cold cuts and sandwiches, but don’t let the name fool you: Mike’s is also a great spot for hearty entrées, and the lasagna is a must-try.

Mario's

2342 Arthur Ave.
Overseen for nearly a century by five generations of one family, this trattoria is one of the City’s premier spots for traditional Neapolitan fare, and an Arthur Avenue mainstay. The lobster ravioli is not to be missed.

Calabria Pork Store

2338 Arthur Ave.
True meat heads (sorry) rely on this traditional Italian butcher shop for sandwich staples and antipasti. (Dig the salamis hanging from the ceiling!) Essential: the extra-hot soppressata.
5
Artuso Pastry Shop
5
670 E 187th St
All manner of classic Italian sweets fill the cases at this bakery, family-run since the middle of the previous century. If you’re in the mood for sugar rush, we recommend the airy, creamy cannoli layer cake.

No food-shopping trip to Arthur Avenue would be complete without a stop at this destination for fresh fish. When’s the best day to visit? Every single one: the catch comes in daily.

Catania’s Pizzeria and Café
