The Ultimate Dining Guide to Lash West Indian & American Cuisine: Menu, Hours, and Transit Tips
By Robert Thorne
A food run to Gun Hill Road does not need to occur in isolation. The northern Bronx maintains several cultural anchors that transform a quick meal pickup into an afternoon itinerary.
A short walk west down 206th Street brings you past historic residential streets bordering Woodlawn Cemetery, an expansive 400-acre National Historic Landmark where jazz legends Duke Ellington and Miles Davis lie buried. Heading south on the 2 train drops you at Pelham Parkway, connecting directly to the New York Botanical Garden and the Bronx Zoo.
Local breweries and neighborhood institutions also line the wider transit corridor. Independent industrial taprooms like Gun Hill Brewing Company historically helped draw attention to the area's craft culture, illustrating that this section of the Bronx functions as a destination for serious regional food and drink enthusiasts.
