Peter’s Since 1969

This Southern-inspired, cafeteria-style restaurant is a bit out of place on Bedford Avenue—there are no flights of whiskey or tattooed waitstaff in sight. But the specialty—rotisserie chicken—fits right into the down-home conceit. The birds are crisp-skinned and slightly charred with juicy meat tinged with rosemary. Sides include standard fare, with the tangy mac and cheese coming out on top. The backyard patio is filled with picnic tables—claim yours before the hipster hordes get wise to this place.
