This is another neighborhood favorite, especially for Sunday brunch which is consistently great.

CAP Beauty has reached a cult-like status amongst New Yorkers who try to live their lives a little more like Gwyneth Paltrow, and a little less like Lindsay Lohan circa 2007. But you don’t have to be a health nut to appreciate the natural beauty store’s mission to bring a carefully selected range of products and brands that are actually kind to our bodies to consumers.

For art books, monographs and catalogs new and used at a discount. I can never manage to leave here without a bag full of books in tow.

Another Gramercy all-star, I really like this place, you need a reservation or early arrival, sitting in the bar is always fun and the food is amazing!

The smell when you step in says it all.
