Brooklyn Bridge Cafe

Every time I cross the bridge, I stop by this restaurant! The avocado toast is my favorite, and you definitely have to try the caramel latte. The service is top-notch, and it's one of the most delicious places in New York.

First time here and I’m genuinely impressed! I had the Grilled Caribbean Salmon Bowl — the salmon was perfectly cooked, flavorful, and so juicy. Every ingredient tasted fresh and well-balanced. The drinks were a highlight too — super refreshing and clearly crafted with care. It’s one of those places where you don’t just eat, you truly enjoy the experience. Can’t wait to come back!

Everything was Amazing. Food very tasty. Personal very kind.

The food is Absolutely delicious!! It's a laid back atmosphere, with great service. Prices are very fair. The kale salad is to die for, the mac n cheese is the best ever, and the chicken tenders are juicey and super fresh! I'll be coming back :)

Daydreaming Brunch! Cozy vibes: Must to try Banana Walnut French toasts and the delicious shashuka eggs!! Perfect combo❤️‍🔥 also amazing hot coco and fried chicken with waffles and breakfasts sandwich! Lovely place, food and service! I will be back for sureee

The French toast with potatoes, eggs, and turkey bacon was very good during my first visit. However, when I returned, the restaurant did not open as scheduled. Their business hours are listed as 10 a.m. to 8 p.m. on Google, but myself and a few other customers waited for 45 minutes and no staff ever arrived.

Good food but overpriced. Clean but average atmosphere. Entrance has no staging area, therefore most guests feel the cold breeze every time someone opens the door. And they automatically add 18% tip (ANY number of guests) and credit card fees.

Today is Tuesday and they only serve breakfast from 1110am. The server lets us in around 1050am and we are able to order coffee first while waiting for the chef 😝 We ordered cappuccino that came with distasteful latte art. Thankfully the hot beverage tasted okay. Wheat toasts served with our breakfast were burnt. The place can do with some repair or deep cleaning.

+1

Unfortunately staff wasn’t particularly friendly, I felt very uncomfortable while getting a drink for take away. Also, my drink was overpriced.

The whole experience was negative. First we had to wait 35 minutes to get our food, which wasn't a large or complicated order. We ordered a burger, a chicken sandwich, and a bowl of soup. They could have brought the soup out first, but waited until they brought the sandwiches as well. Meanwhile, a family that had just been seated 5 minutes prior got their whole order just after us. The soup was clearly from a can and heated in the microwave. The salt that was missing from the soup was coating the fries. My dining partner couldn't even eat the fries they were so salty. After bad food and a long wait, the 18% automatic gratuity was not earned. They put it on the menu that the gratuity is included, but diners should have the option if the food and service is bad. The included picture shows some of the concentrated salt on the fries. Overall, not worth the hassle.
