OMG we loved our meal. Brunch had amazing sweet options including waffles, pancakes, and French toast along with burger and egg entrees. A must repeat.
MatthewNovember 28, 2012Try B.Cafe Omelette (carbonnade flamande, gryuere and eggs) as a hearty Belgian alternative to typical brunch omelettes. Served with a small green salad and fries for $15.
Tony XerriApril 2, 2013Excellent selection of Belgium beer. The burger, although cooked properly, was a bit too dense but fortunately the mussels in red curry sauce made up for it completely. Service was very courteous!
Andrew CJanuary 7, 2019Waffles galore - as main dish and as desserts, YUM!!!! plenty of Belgian beers too and the fries are THE BEST.... also, wait staff is all so attentive and helpful
Phyllis TsengNovember 18, 2018Definitely try the waffles. The speculoos spread is pure deliciousness and the waffles so light and fluffy. Also love their Belgian frites.
Russell HirschornNovember 22, 2014This place is all around awesome. Laksa mussels and beef stew were incredible. Great Belgian brews on draught.
ZenFoodsterSeptember 14, 2017HH drink & food specials Mon-Fri's 5-7 + Sat-Sun's 4-7pm: $1 BP oysters, $9 for 2 lobsters or burger sliders on a plate.
- The Corcoran GroupMay 18, 2010Great date spot with a wide range of Belgian beers. Sit outside in the back garden for a wonderful evening of ambiance and great food. Also, if the wait at Melons is too long, get the B Café burger
Absolute favorite in the UES. Great beer selection, friendly bartender, and really good traditional Belgian dishes. It's a must try if you're in the neighborhood.
Frances AyonJanuary 23, 2022The Restaurant Week Dinner menu for only $39 is amazing and also includes a glass of wine
The egg sandwich with avocado and side of fries is very good. I love the outdoor seating in the back garden
Christina ChinApril 10, 2016Busy for brunch, got the beef stew omelet. Delicious. Fries are on point!
- The Corcoran GroupSeptember 4, 2010Belgian restaurant with an extensive menu of Belgian Beer. End your meal with, or make your meal of, the Belgian Waffle with Vanilla Ice Cream and Chocolate Sauce.
- Joe MedvedNovember 24, 2013Order the free range chicken with mashed potatoes, with a few Kwaks, and finish it off with the Belgian waffle desert.
Gordon DirkerJuly 8, 2013Excellent food along with a great choice of some of the worlds' best beer ( Belgium!) Always a home run
The waffle is crispy and amazing; comes with chocolate, whipped cream, ice cream, and berries!
Theresa GeigerJune 8, 2015Great Belgian beers. Mussels are delicious. Brunch food is tasty, especially the bacon.
Patrick BaskinNovember 26, 2014Egg sandwich at brunch is one of the best I've ever had, fries are legit too
MaddieJanuary 3, 2016Gruyere, avocado, and egg white sandwich if you're looking for something rich and non diet friendly ;)
- Everything is phenomenal. Steak Frite and the beef stew are definite favorites!
Amanda KopmanSeptember 30, 2012One of only two restaurants in the city that serve Scaldis. 12% alcohol and absolutely delicious.- Great place to get a quick cocktail or dinner. Bartenders are extremely friendly and conversational.
Melissa TApril 22, 2018Food was great, but they need to do something about the service - it’s terrible! Brought our drink as we were finishing our meal (and I heard nearby tables with similar complaints).
Lauren GilchristJuly 11, 2012Traditional belgian cafe. Heavy, delicious brunch and wonderful beer selection.
ShoptiquesDecember 3, 2011They have an amazing girlie beer: raspberry smth. Awesome! Think raspberry prosecco!
Peter ElbaorJanuary 20, 2013Attentive service. Good neighborhood joint; not worth going out of your way for but definitely worth checking out if you're close
Peter BarkoApril 21, 2013The Carbonnade Flamande (beef stew) is phenomenal and the Fries aren't a bad time either
Roya NOctober 6, 2012Just a warning there is no whole wheat toast. Or skim milk. But the statue is cute
BSeptember 17, 2011The west side location has better ambiance. No french fries with the Croque Madame unlike the west side.
Bosun JangJune 8, 2014Came for dinner and my favorite was the water... Seriously... Everything was lukewarm - even the beer! Never coming back.

"I'm a cocktail gal & we had a group consensus: my beer-loving friends love & approve of beer selection + $5 HH beers but agree Happy Hour should be longer than 1 measly hr & should include cocktails!"

"Really like the atmosphere and vibe in this hidden speakeasy. The bartenders are awesome. Great places to sit and you feel secluded from the rest of the bar. I will definitely be back!"
Paige C - 7.1
"Great vibe! Very good for happy hours, usually busy with good crowd. And most importantly, they know how to get you a proper point of Guinness"
