    Check the specials. If the shrimp with pimenton is on the menu, call me immediately—and save me a seat. The Roasted Daurade dish will change a bad day to good. Great cocktails. Great espresso bar.

    The fried chicken salad is the only salad I order with joy. The fish tacos are also killer. Brunch there is also a pleasure, since it's less crazy than most places with that quality in Williamsburg

    Strong americano, great service, tasty dishes. Love the whole trout w mushrooms, the burger (add an egg), and the fresh lemon poppy seed scones in the morning

    The polenta with a poached egg was amazing! But the avocado toast was under-seadoned and the pancake was a bit small. Overall fun vibe and nice decor. Will be back to try more dishes on their menu.

    Nice little cozy spot for brunch. The staff were very friendly and they even complimented us with a desert on the house based on an order that was slightly off. Will definitely go back again!

    South Fork cocktail is insane. Dangerously drinkable :) Makes for a top brunch. Really tasty coffee too. The garden is covered and really toasty warm, so nice sitting inside looking out at the cold.

    The salads are great especially the chickory and the Caesar. The Caesar is a traditional egg and anchovy dressing and it’s very good. Sometimes they try too hard with combos and it’s a miss.

    The grilled octopus is divine, and if they have the pasta carbonara special, it would be wise to get it. Wash it down with a King's County cocktail.

    Not sure why I had walked past this place for years and hadn't gone. One of the best burgers I've had in a long time. I'm not a fan of pickles on burgers or lettuce, I recommend keeping both on this.

    From brunch to dinner -- the food is great. Make sure you leave room for dessert. The bread pudding is incredible.

    Super cozy and instagramable. The mushroom toast is simple yet delicious and the French toast has a great cinnamon crunch. 👍🏼

    Tasty and local food-- burger was super flavorful and delicious! Wish I knew about the side greenhouse room beforehand, the front tables outside are a bit cramped.

    Great food & atmosphere. The hostess should basically wear a shirt that says, "FYI: 'Let it Go' is the sound track playing on loop in the back of my mind; I am the Snow Queen; my face froze this way."

    Really cute garden room and great porch space. Food is definitely a bit pricey. Got the french toast + blackberries (really tiny portion; blackberries super stained my teeth) + coffee for ~$20

    Top 3 brunch spots in Williamsburg. The seasonal item (recently poached eggs, root veggies and sourdough) is reliably good.

    Solid brunch, but be ready to wait for a table. Egg sandwich, burger, and fries are all amazing.

    Surprisingly stew is a delicious brunch option here! Try the kale and white bean option for a healthy brunch situation.

    Try the chickory and fried chicken salad. The texture and flavors are a step away from the usual but not too experimental.

    Sit at the bar to avoid the wait at brunch. The rosè+gin signature cocktail is amazing, but the garlic roasted potatoes are better.

    Meh. The place is open late; perfect for a 22:30 dinner. The food is all pretty heavy (or heavily sauced). Bartender was giving other employee(s) a taste of my bottle—odd, right? Cocktails are strong.

    Try the Fried Chicken Sandwich. The best chicken sandwich I ever had. In Brooklyn. In NYC. In the USA. In the world. Really.

    Poached eggs with winter squash are on point! Warning: Spiced Cider on late fall brunch menu is iced not hot! $3 scones are good value. Delish!

    chicken was perfectly tender, juicy. brussels sprouts were a vehicle for olive oil and i wasn't mad about that.

    The roasted pork with fried tortilla, cheese, and eggs is the adult version of nachos for breakfast.

    If you want to cure a hangover you've gotta order the slow-cooked pork with jalapeno cornbread & over-easy eggs. Mix it all up and add some Tabasco. Hangover = gone.
