Delicious bbq inside of a convenience store. It does get crowded here on the weekends, but the line won't be as long as Franklin.

Shopping
If you're into vintage clothing then you must shop here. This is the best vintage shop there is. It's really well curated and not thrifty, the prices are more than what you will see at a thrift store or a more packed vintage shop but it's worth it IMO. They only sell womens though, no menswear unfortunately.

This is my favorite bar that is actually on 6th. It's a little lesser known and the riff raff tend to not hang out here as much. It's technically a speakeasy and you enter through a bookshelf below the hostel. Sometimes there is live music and sometimes there's a DJ.
