Roberta's helped put Bushwick on the food map, and its garden turns into an outdoor screening room for movie night, with a wood-fired pie in your lap. This round pulls out Who Framed Roger Rabbit, the 1988 cartoon-noir mash-up starring Bob Hoskins, paired with drinks themed to the film. If you want a low-key Sunday night that still feels like an event, it's a great way to close out the weekend.
What to expect
Doors open ahead of the screening so you can order pizza and drinks and stake out a spot in the garden. The film plays outdoors, so it feels more like a neighborhood backyard screening than a cinema.
Good to know
