Fodor's Expert Review Salter House

While this shabby--chic shop is now mostly a boutique featuring natural and sustainable housewares and their own branded line of women's house clothes, it's still a café serving coffee, tea, and gluten free baked goods, plus bagels on the weekend. When you're done shopping, there are a few tables to sip, relax, and take in the sun-flooded interior before venturing out to nearby Brooklyn Bridge Park. Next door is its sister shop Picture Room, featuring prints and photography.
