Hungry Ghost

Prospect Heights brewhounds can relax over a cup of joe at this expansive café, from the owner of Prospect Perk up the street. Baristas pull shots of Stumptown espresso from a La Marzocco GB5 in the airy spot, which is outfitted with a dark-wood floor, pressed tin ceiling and plenty of elbow room. A full-fledged daytime menu offers quiches, sandwiches and homemade pastries made by baker Pete Solomita, formerly of Little Buddy Biscuit Company.
