Came here on a summer Sunday with my wife for brunch. We sat in the backyard patio which is comfortable enough, but there's no table umbrellas, which is fine. But you may need to chase the shade depending on what time of day it is, and your sun tolerance. Service was warm and welcoming. She (manager or owner) took our orders for avocado biscuit and breakfast sandwich with roasted potatoes. She even accommodated our indecision between guava and mango Bellinis by combining the two, unasked. It was as lovely, and we definitely felt the champagne. She helpfully suggested the $25 carafe rather than two rounds of drinks for $40 - respect! Everything was delicious. We didn't leave a scrap of food behind. The biscuits were a touch underdone - likely by design to retain a bit of moisture upon reheating we both agreed. We both finished everything so we obviously weren't mad at it. My second visit, her first - looking forward to coming again!
The biscuits did not disappoint. One of the best I've had, definitely up here in the north lol. They were every bit buttery, flaky, and unctuous on their own. They don't travel the best, so try to eat them fresh. The chicken gravy biscuit will not travel well in the paper containers they provide. That said, it was still delicious. It's a trip to get out there for me, but I will make the trip for it.
While looking for a place that had either Matcha lemonade or a lemon poppyseed baked good, I hit the jackpot with Brown Butter. Both items were made well (which is a big deal for me when it comes to Matcha because you can tell when people make it poorly). The service was also great from the people behind the bar. Interestingly they have a bluetooth lock on the bathroom so ring the bell and wait for them to buzz you in (it may take a few minutes). The cafe itself is also very cozy. I would have given this place 5 stars but they have a weird no laptop policy even though they have more than enough room to make a certain section laptop only. To top it off, the manager / owner / leadership person? wasn't too kind in informing the people around me about this rule. If you're tired of laptop customers, try putting a laminated sign on the tables. Outside of that moment, I enjoyed my visit here and would come back again (without my laptop lol).
The food was fresh and amazing and the staff are very nice. I just wish they had a bigger space with table service.
We absolutely loved Brown Butter. The food was fantastic but their coffee really stole the show. Probably among the best we've ever had. We will absolutely be back when in town.
I came here yesterday and I loved it. First the service was amazing and secondly the food was really great. So we ordered two biscuits sandwiches, roasted potatoes, Arnold Palmer and hot chocolate. So we ordered two biscuit sandwich first one was the breakfast sandwich with sausage egg and cheese, this was great and I'm still thinking about it. The other biscuit we ordered was the one for the month with the chicken and that was really tasty, the chicken was well cooked, flavorful and moist. The sauce they used was very good. The roasted potatoes were well seasoned and flavorful. The Arnold Palmer was good and the hot chocolate as well. I would definitely be back to try other dishes. The service was great the staff was friendly and attentive. The space is nice large enough for multiple people and they also have an outdoor space. There are long wooden tables for a family or friend date.
I came here while in the neighborhood with my sibling. Food: 4/5 I had the Belgian waffles with a side of smoked salmon. The waffles were fresh, moist, and honestly so good. I also tried the buttermilk biscuit with strawberry jam. The strawberry jam tasted fresh, tart and so good! Service: 2/5 Unfortunately the service for me wasn't the best the cashier. She was not knowledgeable about the menu options, debated with me and went back & forth in a very hostile & hurtful way. It made me feel ostracized like did something wrong by wanting to place my order and add a substitute. She then began speaking to other co-workers and they began laughing and snickering. This made me feel like I was being mocked and made to feel uncomfortable which Im HIGHLY DISAPPOINTED with. As THIS WAS MY 2nd time patronizing the establishment. The customer service needs work and I'm unsure if I want to return. As much as I enjoyed my meal. I deserve to feel good when patronizing any business. The owner needs to know this because they could potentially cause them to loose business rapidly. Ambiance: 3/5 Basic cafe vibe with ample seating. Cozy, homey vibe where you can sit and enjoy breakfast or coffee with loved ones or alone.
Very cozy cafe type place. I hade the breakfast combo with chicken sausage. The food was tasty. Place was quiet and comfortable. Coffee was good. The service was okay. Quick and easy no chit chat. This is good place to sit and read a book or people watch.
This spot is located in the Bedstuy neighborhood of Brooklyn. They have both indoor and outdoor seating, with tables out front and a really cute patio in the back. I placed my order at the register and grabbed a seat to wait for my items to come out. While I appreciate that my food was made to order, it did seem to take quite a bit of time for my food and drinks to come out. I ordered the avocado toast and added a fried egg and smoked salmon. I got the mango lemonade to drink. The avocado toast is so good! It's not on your typical bread, but more of a flatbread, which was flaky and delicious. The jam on the toast was flavorful, and both the avocado and salmon were fresh. The lemonade was tasty as well. It may very well be the best avocado toast I've ever had, no exaggeration. Highly recommend checking this place out if you're ever in the area.
I was sadly underwhelmed by my chicken & gravy biscuit! The chicken was well seasoned but the gravy that it was smothered in had no flavor. I was expecting a lot more from it when I saw it. I also thought the biscuit would taste a lot more buttery and flavorful but it tasted very plain. I also ordered a fried egg to go in the biscuit sandwich and instead, I got a scrambled egg that was also underwhelming. I probably won't be coming back here. I did like that they had plenty of indoor and outdoor seating and the staff was nice.

Cute set up. 3 ppl behind the counter, very friendly but easily distracted. Chicken sandwich didn't have much taste and fell apart very easily. Seems like a neighborhood gem. read more

Brown butter has the softest most decadent breakfast biscuits in Brooklyn. So far, I've tried the bacon egg and cheese and the sausage egg and cheese varieties. Today, I ordered a little tomato jam on the side to spread on my breakfast biscuit. My hazlenut iced coffee was also very good. I've experienced Brown Butter for both dining in and take-out. I've enjoyed both experiences. I like to dine in during the cooler months because the atmosphere is so warm and cozy. Try the Soup Ju Mou on a cold day if it's avaliable. Scrumptious. read more

The food here was awesome! Only not giving it five stars because there is a very inconspicuous sign that says laptops are not allowed here. My friend and I walked in around noon thinking that we'd be able to work on our laptops while we had breakfast but both employees promptly came up to us and told us that there was a no laptop policy so for the next 30 minutes we struggled to find a place that was suitable to work from now that we had food from another restaurant with us we obviously wouldn't of been welcomed into another establishment. I think there should be a more visible sign to let new customers know that this is not a laptop friendly business. read more

5 stars for the jerk chicken sausage biscuit and home fries. Add a little jam on the biscuit sandwich and you have a winning meal on your hands! One star lost because I ordered the sandwich without eggs, it was even written on the receipt and when I got home the cheese was melted on to the egg. So I had to save what I could of the cheese. Add that on top of ordering the Arnold Palmer and the restaurant not having it. Luckily I noticed it was missing from my order before I left. Staff said it would take a while to make a new batch so they let me take a pre-made juice and seltzer from the refrigerator to make up for it. And if you plan to order from here, just use the grub hub app. It actually functions better than the restaurants actual website and you can order from the full menu on grub hub. Overall I would eat here again and check my sandwich wrote leaving. read more

We read the reviews and even though "long lines" came up a lot, I still wanted to try them out. I was pleasantly surprised that there wasn't a line at all! Great! That said: make sure you check out the menu BEFORE you step foot inside so that when you do get there, you don't have to go through the menu while a line forms! Lol & smh! It was all good though, my husband and I were pleasantly surprised. The biscuits were definitely worth the wait and I gobbled up the veggies that came with my omelette. We sat at the community table at the front door. The vibe is chill and there are some bistro tables and high top seating at the front. I saw some at the back but I didn't get back there. We'll definitely be back. It's breakfast comfort food at its finest! read more

I will start with my highs. Their biscuits are absolutely delicious. Their coffee was really good. I had the mocha latte. Everything is reasonably priced. I love that they are Haitian owned. Unfortunately, they lacked in customer service. The food is really good but I like spaces that feel warm and inviting from those that work there. There was one young lady, the barista, she was a little friendlier than the other staffers. I arrived at 10:45am; heavy rap at 10am is a bit too much for me. Yes, the food was good but the overall ambiance just wasn't there. read more

Baby when I tell you that the chicken thigh breakfast sandwich on a homemade biscuit is hitting!! Do yourself a favor. It was so good I doubled back. The owner and staff were so friendly and supportive of other Black businesses. read more
These biscuits. I don't know what they put in them, but they're amazing. Usually the chicken is the clear highlight whenever there's a chicken + biscuit situation happening, but here I think there's an even match! I'm often subject to random chicken biscuit cravings and I was so fortunate to find this place close to me. The chicken is consistently good and seasoned well without being salty. Also, points for being crispy even after the walk home. I've only been going post-covid, so I can't comment on the typical experience. But for our current circumstances, the staff is always masked and gloved. I've never seen anyone inside without a mask, which is sufficient for me to say that they're enforcing the indoor mask mandate. Outdoor seating is available. Also, get there well before closing time, as I did go once and left because they ran out of chicken. It was an annoyance, yes, but also quite the endorsement for a place I hadn't tried yet! And as you can tell, that didn't deter me from return trips. read more
Sunday breakfast in Brooklyn! Lovely black owned small business. Dropped by here on a beautiful fall day and snagged a table outside in the front. I believe it's first come, first served with their seating arrangement. There's nothing like a delicious Bellini while you patiently wait for your food. Brown Butter's biscuit with bacon, egg, & cheese was so appetizing and filling. Mmm! I also had their roasted potatoes that had a drizzle of sauce (not sure what the sauce was) -- very good too! I would love to try more of what they offer! read more

I really enjoyed my BLT biscuit from Brown Butter. The café is cozy. I added avocado and eggs to my biscuit and it was super filling. The biscuit was buttery with a soft inside. They make some good biscuits here. I also got a side of potatoes and that sauce that was on top was so delicious. It was similar to a chipotle aioli. I got the Haitian hot chocolate and blueberry almond muffin as well. The hot chocolate was good but could've been a bit sweeter. The blueberry muffin was nice and moist. I came here for Black Restaurant week, but I always wanted to try here. I'll come back to try their other biscuits sandwiches and to try their chicken and waffles. Glad to support my fellow Haitian sister.. read more
There's a small outdoor patio to dine. The biscuits were phenomenal--buttery, soft, and savory!! I got the chicken sandwich and the crust was crunchy and fresh. The chipotle sauce was spot on. Their latte was amazing too. No loitering allowed in the front without ordering! read more
