The area behind The Bodega Bar, which previously housed food truck The Diggs, is being transformed into an oasis filled with Brooklyn food and drink vendors, The Patio del Gato.

Launching this Friday, The Patio del Gato will be open on Fridays through Sundays from 5PM to 10PM, throughout the year, rain or shine and will include seasonally rotating food vendors. Moreover, the patrons will be able to order the food from The Patio through their own app, which is to be launched in the upcoming weeks.

In order to create The Patio del Gato, local foodies’ darling Galen Duncan of Duncan’s Burgers and Handpies has joined the forces with Bushwick bar mavens Ben Warren and Gina Leone of The Bodega Bar and Heavy Woods.
