Pudge Knuckles

Pro climber Ivan Greene named his Williamsburg café after the swollen knuckles that mark serious rock climbers. Bean snobs can order single-origin pour-overs, made with a proprietary roast, or opt for the medium blend instead. Snack on Balthazar pastries and breads in the 40-seat space, which is furnished with reclaimed wood, like stools made from an Indonesian shipwreck.
