DUMBO has the most expensive cobblestones in Brooklyn, and the view of the bridge is nice if you can find it between the photo shoots. The restaurants lean on the setting to do a lot of the work, which means the menus sometimes don't have to try very hard, including on gluten-free. The places that do get it right are here. We only have one spot to start you with right now: Pura Vida, which does gluten-free pastries worth the detour. For more in the area, see our picks for bars in DUMBO, and nearby Downtown Brooklyn and Financial District both have their own lists.
