89th And Broke I'm a young professional living in Astoria (formerly of Williamsburg, the UES and Murray Hill - I move a lot!). I'm always looking for something fun to do or the best place to grab a drink and dinner at an affordable price around the city.
Have a suggestion? Email me at Laura AT 89thandbroke DOT com.

A while back I went with my boyfriend’s family to dine at E & E Grill House. Now for full disclosure, his family knows the owner, but let’s just put it this way, if I didn’t like it I simply wouldn’t write about it.
I was looking forward to our lunch for two reasons: [...]

Every so often I get the itch to go bowling and I find it’s a particularly good double date activity. My bowling alley of choice is Frames (formerly known as Leisure Time Bowl) in Port Authority. Since I usually opt for bowling on a Friday or Saturday night, I find the deals at Frames [...]

I guess 89th and Broke isn’t the only one celebrating an anniversary. The Australian, located on 38th and 5th, is celebrating its third anniversary on September 10. From 7-8pm, enjoy free Bronzed Aussie Beer and Jacobs Creek Wine. They will also have a “bogan” theme (and yes, I had to Wikipedia this term) so [...]

I wish I worked near a Crisp, simply because I would take advantage of these coupons for lunch. Every day of the week in August, Crisp offers some kind of coupon deal. All you need to do is print these coupons and bring them in – sorry, the discounts are not valid on delivery. Wondering [...]

McKenna (our Webmaster, and likes/dislikes in italics) and I were recently invited out for a tasting at Hudson Eatery, and naturally we were more than happy to oblige. Since we typically stick to the East side, we weren’t exactly looking forward to our trek over there (and it is pretty far, on 57th between [...]
