the vibe
a dumbo saturday built around the flea market. start with coffee at fontainhas, into usagi's gallery and bookstore, then the flea itself, fishs eddy for housewares, a hawaiian bite at aloha alley, and the water at brooklyn bridge park to close.
how to do this walk
weekends only, the whole route is built around the dumbo flea (saturdays and sundays, 10 to 5). start with coffee at fontainhas, close to the york st subway. from there it's usagi, the flea, fishs eddy, and aloha alley (closed mondays, opens at 11, timing works fine this late in the walk), ending at brooklyn bridge park for the water and the view.

cafe
cafe on jay st, shares the space with du.kaan. open long hours, close to the york st subway, a good place to start with coffee in hand.
0 min walkcafe
japanese-inspired gallery and bookstore on plymouth st, with a small coffee bar tucked in back. the exhibition space and the shelves are the reason to stop, not just another coffee.
3 min walkshop
the dumbo flea, saturdays and sundays only, 10 to 5. vintage, antiques, crafts, and food vendors under pearl st. this is the anchor stop, the walk really only works on a weekend because of it.
3 min walkshop
quirky kitchenware and housewares, mismatched dish sets and novelty mugs. easy to lose twenty minutes just looking.
1 min walkrestaurant
hawaiian spot on main st. closed mondays and doesn't open until 11am. good for a late lunch or early dinner before ending at the water.
8 min walkpark
end here at the water. shaded picnic spots, grills if people are using them, and the view everyone comes to dumbo for. good spot to sit and watch the sunset before heading out.
