Where To Eat Near the Barclays Center, Atlantic Center Mall, BAM

Brooklyn's concentrated hub near the Atlantic Terminal and Atlantic Avenue subway station includes attractions that draw thousands: the Atlantic Center Mall, the Brooklyn Academy of Music, the hip Brooklyn Flea vintage market on weekends, and of course the vast Barclays Center, the new Brooklyn Nets stadium.
All of these attractions are located on Flatbush Avenue, which sports a few restaurants.

And although one can find food at the stadium and fast food at Atlantic Center mall too, sometimes its nice to have a meal in a typical Brooklyn neighborhood restaurant.

Here are some suggestions of a range of nearby restaurants in Park Slope.

The furthest are Belleville, a French bistro and lounge on 5th Street, about a 15 block walk from Barclay Stadium, and Brooklyn's location for the popular pizzeria, Two Boots (which is famous for giving kids a ball of pizza dough to play with while waiting at the table).

The closest is Melt, a tiny, if highly-regarded farm-to-table restaurant that's within a five minute walk of the Barclays Center.
