Cafe Madeline - Complimentary little sweet made my day))) - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Okay, the food is pretty good, but why, why, WHY does it take so long to get it?! I live in the neighborhood and rarely stop in because the place is ALWAYS jammed (even when you think everyone should be at work or something?), there's ALWAYS a line, AND THEN it takes an eternity to get your food. Today I was optimistic when I saw a sign for online ordering. So I took advantage of that and ordered my sandwich while standing outside the place (because once again, the line was ridiculous, and it's MONDAY AFTERNOON for heaven's sake!). The website said my food would be ready for pickup at 1:00 pm (it was 12:45 when I completed the order). Nope. Try 15 minutes AFTER that, the same as if I had waited in line. It's weird to me, considering my order didn't require any cooking; it was a cold sandwich. Sigh. When it comes to Cafe Madeline I have to think about how hungry I am and how much time I have to kill, because they make you wait and wait. read more

My favorite local spot. Whenever I eat here, I don't feel like a fat ass, cause half my plate has veggies. Huge menu, tons of options, healthy and hearty... just a great spot for a coffee, latte, tea, studying, mental break, etc...... I'm not a fan of hipster spots, but this place is just that good. If you Can't beat 'em, join 'em... read more

Cafe Madeline - Salmon plate - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Get the veggie one hander! You won't regret it! I go to Madeline's at least once a week. Def a great neighborhood spot!

Love this place! The cookies are delicious. The people are super friendly! There's free wifi! The food is excellent with an extensive menu.

lavender coffee my favorite literally take my morning walks for their coffee.. Brekkie bowls yumm!!

The food was great, but I had to take one star away for the vibe. I'm not in love with the self service vibe. You have to sit close to the counter or you will not hear your order, it's all a little stressful. The food however was amazing so was the Ginger snap latte. read more

I've been hearing about Cafe Madeline for a while from friends who live in the neighborhood. They told us that they serve great food and Stumptown coffee so I was very excited! Upon walking in I noticed that it was very busy.... With laptop users. Ugh those darn laptop users ruin everything! But we looked at the huge menu and orders a Ginger Twist tea and a Soy Matcha Latte. They were both big sizes and tasted great. Just wish the matcha had more.... Matcha flavor? I worked with Matcha before it should taste like matcha! This was more diluted but I finished it because it wasn't awful. The staff was fast and friendly. Now the food was fantastic! Cheddar Clive biscuit egg sandwich which was the bomb. And I got the Crispy Eggs with brioche. It came with cubed avocado. It was perfect! On the way out I got a fresh OJ and a Belgium waffle! So so good. Paid about $30 for everything. Not bad for how good everything was. I just knocked one star down because switching coffee suppliers all the time isn't good! They now have Toby's Estate and Parlor. No more Stumptown! You have to keep a consistent! Get one thing and stick to it! I'll be back to Cafe Madeline! read more

I find this place pretty nice and would definitely like to pop up back again. It's a fairly small place The food was okay but it probably may have been my pick, I got the kimchi breeki bowl and added sautéed kale to it. I feel like they added way too much kale and that the egg wasn't seasoned. They have a HUUUGGGGEEE menu so maybe the kimchi was just not it that day. The waiters also call out your name when the food is ready and they only have 1 bathroom. It was good but I wouldn't get it again. I would definitely recommend this to a friend and would bring them along the next time I'm in the area read more

The food is really really good here and the portions very nice. There's halfway table service, nice staff for the most part, ordering moves quickly. The inside is hot and stuffy as hell though. So I choose to sit outside. Though they should really stabilize the big table outside. It's annoying to have a table wobble throughout your meal. And I'm still wondering what I paid $27 for when I got a salad, a rosemary latte (I might be off with the name) and a salad. The girl even forgot my cheesecake request. What was I paying$27 for? After a 5% check in discount?!? Without the cheesecake??? read more

Fresh and tasty food as well as signature drinks. Love the fact that you can sweeten your drink to your desire, order at the front counter and have the food delivered to your seat. A few cons though. For one the place is not very ventilated and the place consistently smells of the food that is cooking on the grill. You will come out of there smelling like cooked food which im not a fan of. Second, only one exit which is in the front. Safety risk if you ask me. Third the decor, the place needs a mother's touch. The air duct leaks water occasionally so if you are under it be prepared for an unwelcome splash of cold water. Even though I listed a few cons I should still recommend someone here. You can also just order to go. read more

Cafe Madeline - Nice little spot for a sunday afternoon - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

The one and only. The greatest avocado toast in Brooklyn... New York... America.... it goes on. The poached eggs are perfectly done, melting in your mouth. The lattes are perfectly proportioned, with rich smooth espresso. The salads are unlike anything you've ever seen. Everything is organic, no need to ask. Food is an ART here. Yes, it's really that good. We are so lucky to have this place. Our little piece of heaven. read more

I came here for the first time around 11am during the Sunday brunch rush. The line was long, the eatery was packed, but I was determined to try this place out. An FYI for newcomers (i.e. people like me who didn't know what was going on upon walking into the crowded restaurant), you order at the counter, give the cashier your name, find a seat, and someone will call your name and bring your food to you. After figuring all this out, I ordered their banana, strawberry, and almond butter smoothie (about $8) along with the cheddar chive egg biscuit sandwich ($5.50) I have read so much about. Both were extremely delicious but the cheddar chive biscuit (which I added bacon to) stole the show. You must try it! Aside from the food, the service was great (didn't take too long given the lengthy line and brunch rush), the staff was friendly, and the vibe was chill. Needless to say, I'll be back to try more of their delectable sounding menu items. And if all those options fail me, they'll still have a customer for life if they keep on making those cheddar chive biscuit sandwiches! I'm obsessed. read more

Cafe Madeline - Cheddar chiv egg biscuit sandwich with bacon - Breakfast & Brunch Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Just a little update... this place still has my heart. Whenever I'm breaking a non-caffeinated stretch of time, the cortado here is what I go for. I had the cheddar chive biscuit sandwich today with eggs, spicy mayo, cheddar and I was unsure between two sandwiches, so I was guided to add bacon. Because bacon completes the soul of course. Nailed it. I very much needed this. It's as hectic as always, but they always accommodate me, so I'm content. read more

Food was amazing. I was walking by and saw this little gem the other day and decided to give it a try. I lost my vice and was feeling sick and was recommended this mint tea with ginger and turmeric. I can surly tell you that it definitely did soothe my throat and taste delicious as well. I came back the next day to try the pulled lamb over brown rice and am not disappointed. Very good atmosphere with food to match. I will be back again. read more

Good Service and Smoothie I stopped in here for a smoothie around noon on a weekday. The place was packed! It's pretty big in back (lots of seating cafe-style) but narrow up front by the entrance and counter area. There were people in line to order, people in line to pick up drinks, and people in the seats, and people who worked there running around bringing plates of avocado toast and salads to people at tables. It was like a more brightly colored, more claustrophobic Starbucks. I must admit I was a little overwhelmed and I was convinced it was going to take forever to get my green peanut butter smoothie. It took about 10 minutes, which really isn't long in smoothie time, especially not in such a crowded place. I was really impressed by the service and the smoothie was pretty good. (One point because the smoothie was a little thin and the place was a little scary.) read more

I really like this restaurant. The food and drink are great -- I usually get the chickpea and sweet potato bowl -- and the staff is usually very friendly. It can get tight, but you can almost always find a seat. The only reason I can't give them five stars and the reason I don't stop in more often are their prices. Yes, it's Brooklyn and they claim to use high quality ingredients, but I just can't get behind $22+ for a grain bowl, coffee and tip. Maybe I need to adjust my expectations or start ordering pastries, but until then, this cafe is reserved for special occasions. read more

Great little coffee and tea shop that offers a great alternative to (always full at brunch time) farm on aderley and picket fence The coffee and tea selection is amazing. The steamed tea latte with soy milk is an awesome tea concoction. The wife ordered the cappucino, and they made a neat little cat in the foam. The WiFI is a nice treat (the password is written in the bottom left corner o the menu board), the mini cupcakes from financier are nicer. Although, I do believe at a dollar a piece, they are kind of over-priced. Speaking of which, don't forget to bring your cash... no cards allowed The wife got the full breakfast, which was pretty filling. At the recommendation is a fellow yelp reviewer I got the gargonzola n pear sandwich with bacon..best advice I ever took. The background music is very chill and relaxing. They let you linger all day and study (they have a giant study table in the front) or read if you'd like. read more

Love this place; food and coffee are delicious. The only reason I'm not giving five stars is because they don't confirm their order with deliverymen before giving them our meals and their phone number is currently out of service, making it impossible to contact them. I waited nearly two hours for a delivery today because they gave out my order without confirming first. read more

I love this place! Their coffee is excellent--they have not only nitro cold brew, but several types of nitro tea and other things on draft, which are all a real treat. The staff is friendly and they move the line quickly so it doesn't add to my commute in the morning. I've never ordered food or hot drinks so I can't speak to that, however any of the coffees/teas on draft come out so quickly--sometimes even before I finish walking from the register to the spot where you get your coffee. The station with straws and lids and milk and all that is always neat and easy to use, and it's on a corner so it does not get too crowded. If I had one complaint, it would be that they only have domed kids for their iced coffee, which result in my spilling coffee all over myself nearly every day on my bicycle commute. Obviously it has not stopped me structuring my mornings around getting coffee there most days, but I have been considering trying to find my own kids that will work with their cups so that I don't walk around smelling like coffee all day. read more

Food is fine, if overpriced. Good selection of baked goods, sandwiches, salads. (Although a lot of their items don't appear on the menu, but are posted on sheets of paper stuck randomly on the walls, which can be a bit confusing.) The main issue is the ventilation system, or lack thereof. It seems like there is CONSTANTLY smoke coming from the kitchen area and nowhere for it to go. The back room would be a perfectly place to sit and chat with friends or do work, if it weren't for the fact that the air literally stings your eyes and sets off coughing fits. If you spend any amount of time sitting in that area, you'll also come away with your clothes and hair saturated with a gross burnt smell. tl;dr if you sit outside you should be fine read more

Wow the selections, you'll be reading the menu for a little while so start before you approach the ordering area! I had the bowl with chickpeas, sweet potatoes, spicy hummus, fresh and gooey goat cheese, greens, and adorned with a watermelon radish. It was so tasty and healthy, thank you for infusing my day with this wonderous pleasure! Also had an almond milk cappuccino, which was enjoyable, a bit cold for my preference but a lovely taste. The atmosphere is okay - a little smokey inside as the kitchen is in the same room as most of the dining area, but there's an outside area and a back room to choose from as well. It's not cheap but it's not crazy expensive. Unless you get something small (like a biscuit sandwich), expect to play like $15-20. I can't wait to come back and order more of the delicious foods on this menu - updates to come! read more

Great food, great desserts, great coffee! It's a small place so don't be in a hurry! Come and relax and enjoy! Excellent.....

Great local spot with tons of options for food and drinks. Highly recommend the smoothies and breakfast sandwiches!

Holy crap, that was the freshest egg sandwich I've ever had! My BF and I stopped by for a late brunch. Luckily there's no such thing as late here, the menu is the same all day. He had the BLT, which he wasn't moved by. However, don't let this be a reflection of anything because he's a chef! Biased, discerning taste. lol I, non-chef, yet full time eater, had the ABC egg sandwich. Avocado Bacon and Cheddar - 3 of my faves, together in harmonyyyyyyyyyy on sourdough. They should rename it ALL TIME BEST CRACK COCAINE. I'm hooked. Thinking about making the walk over to the trap now. Coffee was excellent as well. Can taste all of its 'fair trade' glory. Standard decor. Tables a bit too small to hold all of the delishussness but if you eat as fast as I did, that won't matter anyways. ;-) read more

Dope, righteously sourced cafe fare. I love coming here, vibe, coffee & the biscuits...Sun!

First time. Saturday morning. Crowded but enough seats to sit. Order at the counter. Pick up coffee at the bar and staff brings food to your table. Despite crowd, not a long wait for food. Had the maple, bacon oatmeal and a cup a coffee. The oatmeal came with bacon on top. Bacon was perfect. Oatmeal also perfect. Hard to find oatmeal with the right consistency. The oatmeal was textured in the way that I believe oatmeal should be textured. My new Saturday AM spot and an awesome find! read more

Good food but super expensive! 4 bowls and a smoothie came out to $90!! I had to ask the cashier lady to repeat the price because I could not believe it lmao. read more

This is a fantastic cafe. The rose petal latte is to die for. I had the prosciutto, avocado, poached egg croissant which was delightful. They have an extensive menu and a great collection of hot sauce too. My only criticism is that both times I've been in here the music on the stereo has been atrocious 2000s-era "alternative." It clashes with the rest of the atmosphere and undercuts their otherwise great vibe. read more

Food was excellent and service was excellent. The professional staffs, aromatic coffee, and delicious food were a perfect combo! Highly recommend this place. read more

I find the cafe very pretentious. The prices are outrageous and I believe Adell keeps it that way in order to get the 'more rich' clients for his cafe. The names of most of his liquids are comical ie rose petal. Where does he think he is? Certainly not beloved Brooklyn. And well this really isn't too nice but he stands out like a sore thumb. He is so unusual looking. But that's neither here or to the issue. No stars for Cafe Madeline for me!! read more

After church service on Sundays, I take a brisk walk to Ditmas Park to stop by my favorite spot, Cafe Madeline and grab a light breakfast and hibiscus tea. Cafe Madeline is a casual coffee shop that serves both breakfast and brunch, along with a plethora of beverage choices such as lattes, teas and fresh juice. The menu is diverse, so it's safe to say you are bound to find something you will like. Last Sunday, I wanted to step out of the box and try the "Not Your Grandma's Breakfast", which included Naan, eggs, salmon and avocado and it was delicious. The service is always pleasant but as the popularity heightens, it's impossible to find seating and most likely you will have to grab your order to go. The prices are decent and they're quite generous with serving size. read more
