The Bronx Brewery
856 E 136th StHands down my favorite Mexican food in the neighborhood. El Pipirin is an outdoor, street-style Poblano restaurant, owned and operated by the incredibly generous and charismatic, Puebla-natives, Cesar and his wife.
Call ahead for opening. It’s typically open from Noon to late in the summer, Noon to 8pm during colder months and closed for inclement weather.
On a cold day, ask for a cafe de olla, or an atole.
