Following last week’s seizure of Tasti D Lite on Court Street, there’s now a large sign in the window that says “Closed, Thank you for your patronage.” Well, there go the two fully-punched cards I have waiting to be traded in for free medium-sized frozen confections. I’d like a self-serve fro-yo place take over the space, like Yogurtland. What would you like to see open there?

Personally, I’d like to see a pizza place that’s open late on weekends (a glaring deficiency in the neighborhood, IMO), but I’m not sure the space is suitable for that.
Good suggestion, Josh. I gave up on a late-night pizza place ages ago.
It just doesn’t make any sense to me that the pizza place near the movie theater on Court Street (the big theater up above Atlantic Avenue, not Cobble Hill Cinemas) doesn’t stay open late on weekends. People get out of movies late, come home from bars in and out of the area, etc. The McDonalds right there stays open 24 hours (IIRC) on weekends and seems to do good business; the Domino’s on Smith Street looks like it has people stopping in to get their pizza fix until they close at 2. It just seems like a bizarre unmet demand.
Layla Jones is open until 11pm for 7 days/week. Order it ahead, freeze it and voila–better than Bongiournos! Otherwise, it gets pretty sleepy with not much foot traffic. and
not much action on Cobble Hill’s Court Street at that hour–maybe busy on the north side of Atlantic Ave., but that is a whole other world on that side.
Yep, that’s true, but there’s plenty of foot traffic on Smith and no late-night pizza there either.
Not that this has been annoying me for a while, or anything.
I’ve lived in Cobble Hill for the past 6 years and am baffled as to why there are so many Thai restaurants opening (and most of them suck) and not any new pizza places that are open late. Domino’s is not even an option. Caruso’s isn’t very good and they’re not open late, anyway. There’s nothing else on Smith! Ridiculous!
A friend of mine wanted to open a late nite slice place where Louie g’s opened up next to Brooklyn Tattoo on Smith. The landlord, who is also the landlord for the iner, said he promised the diner guys not hot food. I agree, a late night pizza place would make a ton of business, even if its just a window like Louie g’s.
Sal’s pizza is open late.. on Court St./DeGraw — only one block up from Smith St… And if you’re further along and can wait for a pie, there’s always the world-class Sam’s Restaurant with it’s throwback decor also, which is on anyone’s list of good local pizza (that knows what they’re talking about).
Sal’s is only open until 11, if Menupages.com is to be believed. (I haven’t been past there recently late at night to be able to say for sure whether or not that’s correct.) That isn’t really what I’d call “late night”, I’m talking more along the lines of until 2am or 3am.
Yeah, late night for the bar set is definitely after midnight.
I do love Sam’s, been going there for decades, but Louie is pretty adamant about not taking people in to much after 9, 930.
I’m thrilled to see the place close. I hope they all close and are replaced with businesses that serve real ice cream instead of junk. So many parent feeding their kids their industrialized products.
Perhaps now Jeff can expand the excellent Nectar into this space and add real ice cream to the menu.
Guess, a good nightspot-snack place- there is a good diner on Smith Street-Greek-they are open all night-closer to Atlantic Avenue. We could use a good fish restaurant-that would bring everyone out to eat a good meal-at all times of the evening.
