Places We Miss...........

Booklaw's "RIP Uprising (Bakery)" got me thinking about places that have gone but are sorely missed.

Mine include:

- Max & Moritz


um....I'm stumped right now, but I am sure there are more

the record store on 7th/9th St. Name escapes me, but they had a sign with a cow on it.

talking to myself....


All For Paws on PPW, (RIP Jackie)

Mooneys!

This.


Also, Brownstone Billiards before it became Ocean's.

And Cucina.

And I forgot another one - the Scouting Party

Bellemelios sounds familiar but I can't remember what it was....

herzog's! I still think about it every time I walk past that corner!

Agreed about scouting party, Cocotte and Al's Toyland!

Also, the Paper Place, and, of course, The Windmille Shoppe

Julius Orange... and Reis 100.

the original Mooney's that used to be on 7th Avenue

I think you're gonna have to change your avatar to read "Wherever Julius Orange is....". I'm just sayin'

the bread bakery that used to be on 5th Ave near where Cucina opened up years ago, anyone remember what that place was called?

Thank you. That's what I thought, but it sounded wrong in my head (as do so many other things...LOL)

then I guess you also miss the old head shop that used to be on 9th Street?

how 'bout Faiths Bakery?

The old cousin John's on 9th & 7th Ave., The Italian sandwich shop that was accross the street, I can't recall the name but it made the best heroes!
Booklink, Little Things

Bellemelios was an "appetizing" store. Had every kind of cream cheese known to man, brought in from Amish country, every kind of lox and other smoked fish you could possibly want, and various other delicacies. Plus the proprietor was a lady with a big, delightful personality.

Even earlier (late 70's), there was a very nice tiny appetizing shop on Berkeley Place just below 7th Avenue, with great cheeses, pates and other stuff.

There also used to be about three butcher shops on 7th Avenue, all of which have closed.

Finally (for me), I miss the Kosher-style deli on 7th Avenue near Berkeley Place.

bringin' back memories!
Scouting Party, All for Paws, Cocotte, New Prospect Cafe (esp. the takeout on 7th),
Max & Moritz

how about McFeeley's on Union St. We positively LIVED there every Friday night for years!

Never really understood:
Charlies on Flatbush Ave
Raintrees on 9th

Before Charlies opened on Flatbush, there was another, much older restaurant in the same space, called Michelle's. At that time there were very few ambitious restaurants in the Slope.

Was Raintrees the name of the restaurant at 9th and Prospect Park West? I liked that restaurant. They had a very nice steak au poivre.

What was the name of the ice cream place on PPW and 9th Street? When they closed, they locked the store kitty in there for over a week and the fire department had to come rescue it.

Didn't the ice cream place at PPW and 9th Street become Raintrees? They had the best brunches. Miss them and Bellemillio. Rita was the owner. After closing it down, she opened a new age bookstore, but sadly, passed.

Flatbush Pavilion.
