The blizzard ended up being a “non-event,” according to Eric Grimm, the barista at Box Kite, which closed early last night but was back to business as usual today. But that doesn’t mean everyone’s running at full steam. A few doors down on St. Marks Place, Nino’s opened later than usual today, as some employees struggled to get in from Long Island. (The pizzeria’s owner, Nino Camaj, estimates he lost at least $2,000 in revenue after closing early last night.) Some Brooklyn businesses got a late start as well, and others are closed entirely. Before you go stomping through the slush, take a look at our rundown of Bushwick restaurants and stores to see whether they made it into the post-Juno world.
OPEN
983
Closed a couple of hours early last night, but otherwise unaffected by the “super” storm.
Tutu’s
Snow schmo.
Skytown
Opens at 4. “We could’ve opened this morning. The TV was scarier than the storm.” Closed early last night when Broadway turned into a ghost street, but it will be business as usual for dinner tonight.
Beacon’s Closet
Opened a couple of hours later than usual this morning.
The Wheelhouse
Opens at 5; they were wary of opening up this morning, but you can still get your grilled cheese fix tonight.
Organic Planet
And *shrug* unaffected.
WE'RE OPEN TONIGHT Y'ALL! $5 Old Fashions & Daiquiris all night. #fuckthesnow #comecozyup #opentonight #bushwick #bar #restaurant #cocktails

Forrest Point
Open at five, as per usual.
Sunrise/Sunset
Late rise this morning, but the kitchen and bar will be up and running by four.
Little Skips
The cafe was packed, as always, this morning, though there was no bread or bagels, only drinks and soup (the driving ban meant delivery trucks couldn’t make the rounds). Still, staff was low, so it planned to close at 3 p.m.
Roberta’s
They had to close early last night, but they’re up and running today. They will not, however, be making deliveries, so you’ll have to make the trek to get that glorious za.
Ange Noir Cafe
Oui.

CLOSED
Little Mo
Little Skip’s little brother shut for the day.
Momo Sushi Shack
They closed early last night and aren’t open for lunch today. Give ‘em a call before you try for dinner.
Dillinger’s
“Due to EXTREME WINTER WEATHER we will be closed Tues, Jan 27. Sry folks.”
Montana’s Trail House
Their farmers couldn’t deliver the goods today because of road conditions – that’s how fresh this place is. They should be back in business tomorrow.
