Great spot for takeout food. Unassuming and low key but the bake & (cod)fish is excellent and the porridge is good, too. Caribbean newspapers available and also other savory prepared foods like oxtail are solid choices.

Excellent pizza. They deliver. We highly recommend. By the slice or pie. Not too far either, if you feel like walking, and it is by the B46 and B46 SBS and A/C trains on Utica and Fulton. Can't beat it. Call for delivery- they aren't on Seamless anymore.

Great for takeout breads and Caribbean staples like patty in cocoa bread. Definitely worth a try and unassuming spot near the train. I'm hungry thinking about this place.

Pastrami. Sausage. Knishes. Look, just go here and drop money. They take credit card, too. DO NOT LOSE YOUR TICKET. You need it to leave. Around $20 per pastrami sandwich. My go-to is pastrami on rye with mustard.
