Ambitious creativity is what allows Forrest Point to stand out among the budding movement of casual restaurants and bars in Bushwick.

From its idyllic, arboreal front yard to its chic-rustic decor, to its playful exterior complete with psychedelic muraling and light-up signage, every inch of this converted gas station calls out to the imagination. From the street it appears like an oasis in the middle of the post-industrial landscape, and the dining experience echoes that notion. The space is as much a hip nighttime lounge as it is a neighborhood cafe, complete with a service window for convenient carry-out.
