Lovebirds Wine Bar + Bistro

Photographs of famous couples line the brick walls at Lovebirds, a wine bar across Nassau Avenue from McGolrick Park that shifts from coffee and pastries by day to natural wine and a short dinner menu by night. A poppyseed cheesecake has become the dessert regulars order by name, alongside small plates built around whatever's poured that week on a by-the-glass list that turns over often. The same owners run a separate wine shop in Bushwick for bottles to take home. Reservations go through Resy.
