We've been warning you long enough...now it's time to get your pie and drink it too. Pels Pie Company, open tonight, with live music to boot.

In other words, say goodbye to that carb-free weekday routine. Binge and Purge never felt so right.
thx to mr. plg for the tip!
So I stopped in for pie last night. Sarah and Maddie were warmly welcoming, and the apple pie was just $4, big, and super scrumptious. Lots of curated wines and beer. The espresso machine is a-comin'
Come on by and welcome them to Rogers, the new Champs Elysees of Lefferts.
Sarah & Maddie at your service |

Wow this place is fancy. Great interior. They'll do well.
We went to Pels Pies this afternoon. The place is so great for the nabe. Pie is outstanding and the vibe is even better. Could Rogers be the new Franklin Ave.???
I think Rogers has the potential.
Rogers has huge potential for dining and retail. In the process of realizing that potential, however, I'm sure that several storefront churches will be displaced. I'm not a fan of churches for a bunch of reasons, but they're the only social outlet for a lot of people.
There are a lot of "charities" and "churches" in Brooklyn where the main mission is to get income for founders. I wish we'd see people join the churches in the big, historic church buildings in dire need of reviving and increasing their tiny, aging congregations and coffers. Right now they don't have money to keep up the buildings and who knows what will happen. They'll all be turned into condos eventually because it's so costly to maintain them.
Went their yesterday, apple pie was great. Crust done just right. They didn't open til 3 in the afternoon tho!
I've been told by a couple people in my wife's family that Rogers used to be hopping before they ripped out the trolley. There are a lot of dormant commercial spaces and a nice wide sidewalk on the East side of the street.
Unfortunately, there is lot of speeding and a lot of sidewalk parking which doesn't make it feel very inviting for pedestrians.
The only sidewalk parking I've seen after 10+ years of living here is by the fire house, but people do drive like maniacs on the road...
There's a shipping company that uses the sidewalk as a loading dock. Might be on the same block as the fire station.
Speaking of Rogers, does Landmark Antiques have business hours? There's never anyone there and I'd like to check out what they have in the store.
They're predominantly refurbishers, not really an antique shop. But I think I have Norbert's email if you want it.
That would be great! Feel free to email rather than post.
Re speeding on Rogers: my sense is that the introduction of the bus-only lane has slowed traffic for the most part, due to congestion. Unfortunately that same lane is now a clear path for the few who feel entitled to ignore the rules and put everyone else in peril. And since we have near zero enforcement of speeding or the no-standing hours (causing cars to zigzag back into traffic), Rogers is as dangerous as ever—or maybe worse.
On a cheerier note, best of luck to the pie bakers. Welcome to PLG — Pie Lovin' Gardens.
Beautiful space, delicious pies, great addition to the neighborhood. A must to check out
Diak, that was an apt description six months ago. Since then the NYPD has begun ticketing and towing cars in the no-standing lane and the city has started camera ticketing cars in the bus lane. Now there is general speeding in the morning and there is some insane speeding (i.e. twice the speed limit) in the afternoon when there is still an extra lane but very little traffic.
Note: There is very little speeding from 8:45 am to 9:15 am, due to congestion, but I live right off of Rogers Ave and see all it's moods. I couldn't begin to count all the car crashes I've witnessed.
