Heads Up: New Vegan Burger Spot Across From Tompkins
Pop’s Eat-Rite is the latest offering from the same crew that runs Goodnight Sonny and The Wayland, and is a direct product of the new normal. You can read about how Endless Hospitality pivoted from an upscale Italian joint to a to-go burger stand as a result of the pandemic in Gothamist’s article on their new venture.
The photos suggest that Pop’s burger is proper, and the location is obviously skate-friendly. This just opened on Tuesday, so check it early if you’re around the neighborhood. We’ll definitely be taking it for a test drive this weekend. The hours are noon to 9pm Tuesday through Sunday, and it’s located at 123 St. Marks at Avenue A.

Seeing all the other shops back then were focused on snowboards, Tony Croghan saw the opportunity to establish a shop dedicated to skateboards. He used earnings from a hotel job to start 35th North Skate Shop in Seattle.
After twenty years, 35th North has become a prominent part of the Seattle community, hosting events, art shows, premieres, and karaoke nights.
Pro skaters Matt Gottwig and Kristin Ebeling shared more stories about how the shop became an integral part of the local skate scene in this episode of “Established“.
