I haven't been here in a few years, mostly because I don't eat breakfast out a lot. Today I found myself running errands early in the morning and was waiting for a place to open. I came here to pass some time and get food. The prices are very reasonable given how expensive restaurants in general have gotten. Good, standard omelette with home fries and toast. Exactly what I expected. It's a relaxed atmosphere (at least around 8am). Recommended if you need a solid breakfast spot! read more

Lite Bites - Veggie omelette with home fries and whole wheat toast - Delis Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

i ordered a hashwich and i loved it - huge, filling, delicious, and steaming hot. there's also a little bit of a kick to it. the staff were very efficient and my sandwich came out ~3 min after i ordered it so i was in and out of there. it's clean and there's a decent amount of seating if you want to stay and eat but it was a grab and go day for me. read more

I had a very nice little breakfast here. Prices are pretty adequate, service was very fast, and the restaurant itself is a decent size and well maintained. The guys working were super nice and the vibes were great at 10am. I will certainly stop by again! read more

Lite Bites - Delis Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Casual cafe, breakfast and sandwich joint with a Caribbean touch located steps from the Norman Avenue G line subway stop at Manhattan Ave. As I was in the area late morning and had not eaten yet I still wanted breakfast which they serve all day. Two eggs scrambled, home fries, and a mesclun salad with a grilled pita. For about $10 it was pretty standard and hit the spot. Easy service and comfortable vibe with an old school cafe/diner feel. read more

Lite Bites - This place has gotten expensive but is good. 18$ for this plate. - Delis Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Didn't even know this place existed. So happy that my friend invited me inside after Pilates. Had the waffle with eggs. So good and fresh. Coffee was meh but it was fine. The place was so cozy and inviting. Nicely lit up. You place your order at the counter and have a seat and when it's ready they bring it out to you. Not too shabby. I was full and satisfied after eating here. Would stop in again and try some other breakfast items off their menu. read more

Lite Notes deserves an updated review. They still have great food and super fast service. I stopped by during breakfast and their hash brown breakfast sandwich was yummy! It was also clear that many of the customers were regulars and came in quite frequently. It's still 5 stars and worth stopping. read more

Lite Bites - Bacon Hashwich on whole wheat everything bagel - Delis Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

This place is special. First of all the owner makes his own pepper sauce from peppers he grows and shares it with delight. The owners are very kind and have somehow managed to bring hospitality at a high level into a fast causal corner cafe. You can get whatever you heart desires (scrambled eggs, black beans, plantain and pepper sauce is my usual) and if youre lucky you can get roti on some days. Highly recommend 10/10. read more

This has become one of our go-to breakfast spots as the food is always outstanding, the people who work here are lovely, and the prices are very reasonable. My husband and I would argue that their bacon hashwich on a brioche bun is the best breakfast sandwich in Greenpoint/Williamsburg but you really can't go wrong with any of their breakfast options. I'm also 99% sure they get their bagels from Bagel Point across the street which makes amazing bagels but terrible breakfast sandwiches so this is a win/win. read more

I truly have nothing n bad to say about this place been coming here for years.. but the simple fact That this place closes at 3pm now is utter BullS***. The neighborhood is always busy so that 3pm close makes no sense to me at all read more

Thank you Elvia for breakfast ! The food was amazing. Sausage egg and cheese with hash brown on English muffin, super delicious. Fresh orange juice was good too. I highly recommend. Their service is amazing. - Team at optical warehouse outlet read more

I had to cover a very far office in the Greenpoint area in the early morning all the way from South Brooklyn. I got there quite a bit early and was hungry and stopped by this unassuming joint. I looked at the menu and ordered their signature bacon hashwich on a brioche bun, on the cute little board. I got two, since it sounded like a breakfast sandwich that won't fill me up. Cost me $20. I waited maybe 10 minutes? Sweetest people in there!! I got myself freshly squeezed orange juice too. They also take Apple Pay so it was easy. The sandwiches were huge and I eat quite a lot for breakfast regularly. It was so good, that I dreamt of it for a good month before deciding to make it at home on my own. I don't think I can compare yet, but the eggs were so velvety, bun was PERFECT, the hash brown addition was actually genius lol & the avocados were just the cherry on top. I wish I lived closer to this place, just so I can order it every morning. 9999999/10 would eat again!!! read more

I used to go here all the time but trimmed it to maybe only 2-3 times a year the last 4-5 years because it was getting very expensive for what little they gave you (even before the pandemic and inflation, that is). Now -- no more. They totally skimp on everything and charge you two arms and a leg. I wish I had taken a picture before submitting this review, but I just got finished with the skimpiest turkey club of all time. It took about 28 seconds to eat. I don't even think there was any bacon on it, but tbf I guess they made up for it with all the mayo. This miniature turkey club and a small bag of chips cost me SIXTEEN BUCKS. The last time I went here about 6 months ago I ordered the curry chicken platter off of the Caribbean menu. Apparently I ordered the veggie platter as it was pretty much just a load of rice and daal and it was EIGHTEEN BUCKS. No thanks -- no more. read more

I've eaten in as well as gotten delivery from Lite Bites. I really they they are a very underrated spot in Greenpoint. Eggs are cooked perfectly EVERY time. If you like scrambled, they do them PERFECTLY. Light, fluffy, just this side of fully cooked and not "custardy", not the slightest bit of overcooked/burnt. The bread they use is a step above the normal fair used elsewhere in the neighborhood. As for the Trini food? FANTASTIC. Don't sleep on this place. read more

CROOKS! I ordered a $4.50 iced tea that barely fits a half glass . Most of it was ice , the nerve to charge people for ice and a drop of (disgusting ) dirty water they call iced tea. Also orders their tuna sandwich that was more red onion than anything. No wonder their business is going down the drain . read more

This place used to be so so good. Past compliments and complaints aside: Today the Swiss omelet was perfect. Cooked, not brown, cheese melted. But... Requested: received Well done bacon: deep-fried bacon White toast, extra butter: cold toast, solid butter Steak fries: undercooked steak fries The service staff-members here are very nice. Maybe the place is closing soon? But, they finally painted the walls. Who knows? Why not complain to the server and send everything back? I accept responsibility. I returned again. Maybe the new place across the street is a better bet? Its new. But, I want THIS place to be as good as it used to be. I'm sad. Why post a negative review, if I accept responsibility? Civic duty? A call for a return to quality? Blah blah blah. This place used to be so good. read more

Stopped by on a chilly day to try some of the grab and go Caribbean (I later learned) food from Lite Bites. Everyone there was friendly. I had some questions about their food, which they answered with patience and suggestions. Nice place. read more

I understand why people who come here might not order the Trinidadian food on offer. I get it! Really I do! Actually, no, I don't get it at all. This place is all about FLAVOR. Say it with me, people: F-L-A-V-O-R. If you order a vegetarian plate of, let's say, spinach, pumpkin, lentils, and rice with a bit of homemade hot sauce on the side... well, you're getting four or five totally distinctive flavors that are all intensely wonderful. The meat dishes are great, too. The portions are generous, and watch out, because you're going to want to finish them. Maybe don't eat breakfast, then come here and gorge yourself - because you're going to want to. I don't really know what happens when they put that big oval plate in front of me, but a few minutes later I'm happy and can barely move. Good thing it's a long walk back to the office. By the way, the service is always friendly - maybe caring is a better word - and the owner has real pride in what she does. I'm guessing the Trinidadian food is what she's proud of most. A lunch for the ages, people. Don't miss it. read more

I absolutely love this place. Its clean , up to date and the service was incredible. From the moment I sat down Diana made me feel like family. She was ontop of me , making sure I had everything I needed and kept checking up on me. O'd give this place 10 stars if I could read more

Food very good. Roti to die for Very very nice costumers survive very friendly Will be going back ASAP read more

You have to order Trini food, if you're gonna eat here. That's what they do best. Forget the BLT. You won't find a tastier vegetarian option, than some veggie roti or some Dhal over rice with veggies on top. Try something new. read more

Ordered the bacon hashwich on a bagel and got this. The level of disrespect you have to have for your customers to send them something like this is incredible. You can't eat it, It's inedible. Black from the stove top they cook everything else on. You can smell the combination of grime and fats off of the sandwich. Disgusting. read more

The 3-star rating on this place is really DEAD ON. This is not a place you're going to eat at or order from and think about in the future like "wow... that sure was a good meal." They have tons of great menu options but are TERRRRIBLE at preparing seemingly everything they make. I've ordered from this place on nearly a half-dozen occasions and the result is always the same: The food will come to you and you'll realize just how poorly it was prepared in the kitchen. If I get a salad with dressing already inside of it, it comes OVERLOADED with dressing... like nearly half a bottle of whichever dressing you choose ... if you order dressing on the side... they don't give you enough, which is just a bad. If I get a sandwich, it will be prepared with as little care and attention to proper seasoning as possible. I decided to give this place one more try so I ordered one of their $10 Tuna Melts... the mayo tastes like they've been keeping the tuna pre-made in the fridge for a little too long... like it's beginning to turn... and I don't know what spices they used but whatever it is... it's just... aweful.... granted I'm an expert when it comes to making tuna, but I know this and so I'm usually quite forgiving when eating it made by someone else.... and this... this abomination of a melt was NOT worthy of the name "tuna." Someone needs to come into this place and teach the people in the kitchen what ingredients to use, how to properly store food and for how long. I don't see how I could order from this place again. I gave them too many tries to get it right already and if they can't even handle making a salad or a tuna melt properly, I just don't see the point anymore. I'll give them a star for prompt and friendly delivery men. read more

Had the roti & it was delicious! I ordered over the phone for pick up but when I arrived they graciously made them fresh & hot. Wait time was less then 3 minutes. My only problem is they don't make them on the weekend! Easy to get to by G train or buses. Will be coming back for more! read more

This company is not ran professionally at all! The people that work here are very rude and don't care about there customers! The food I received was not fresh, and it was burnt. I asked for a refund and they have been giving me the run around, and every time I call they are so rude. I am very disappointed. read more

The Trinidadian food is delicious and flavorful! And the staff is so friendly :) this is definitely a hidden gem of Greenpoint.

Greenpoint's hidden gem! Super friendly staff! For the price the food is pretty good! It's good if you wanna eat in or just get something to go! Bagel point is across the street but if you're smart, this is the place to go. read more

The best carribean food I've had. The vegetarian plate with pumpkin/spinach/potato curry is the way to go.

If you haven't had the Trini food for lunch (I think just on weekdays) what are you even doing with your one wild and precious life. Roti, shake and fried bread, curries and dumplings I just ahhhhh!!! Don't be fooled by the dusty awning outside - this isn't just an order-in place. Dine-in service is great! read more

Best chicken roti I've ever had with just the right amount of kick. And quick, friendly service!!

ITS GUNNA B A NO FROM ME "Got" a "breakfast sandwich" which was upside down. The buns were flip flopped. Cheese wasn't melted. I'm telling you it took them 45 mins to through this together like a final on the morning of an exam. My dog can make a better sandwich. Might as well eat some over done chicken from the deli across the street. TURRASHH read more

This is one of our favorite places to have breakfast whenever we are in Greenpoint.... aside from Socrates of course !!! They have a lot of Reduced Fat and Fat Free dishes and we always drop by at least once a month. We lived here in the early 80's and have a deep attachment to the place. I don't really know what it is but there is something about this place that draws you like magnet..Is it the fresh Kielbasy made right in the premises!!!!Or the soft Ham Hocks they have at Christinas.... Lite Bites offers an array of different kinds of mouth watering breakfast, lunch and dinner. Today I had 2 eggs over easy, grilled potatoes w/ ionions, a piece each of sausage and crispy bacon and toasted wheat bread. ...Nashad had the same without the meats and chalah bread instead of wheat. Their coffee was great!!. I am a tea drinker but I order the coffee whenever I am here. Ordered a Tuscan wrap to go for Camille for her lunch in school....Grilled chicken w/ Mozzarella cheese, Roasted Mushrooms,Sundried tomato and Grilled Eggplant... The place was small but the pleasant ever smiling servers and the nice clean surrounding was enough to please all the regulars...mostly the NYPD's from the nearby precinct... read more

You know. I was always a champion of Lite Bites.. I defended them because I thought they were actually a fine place with friendly, helpful staff. What happened? Seriously. Did it get taken over by a bunch of fifth graders? It has been so terrible lately that I can't even complete a thought. I've done pick-up orders for the past five years. All good... except the past five months. Items missing, being charged wrong, raw chicken, the cooks forgetting to cook the food I called about an hour previously, etc etc. Today, I've reached my limit. I called this morning and ordered a turkey club sandwich on whole wheat bread. I get there, I get my bag, I pay, I come home. I open the bag... it's an egg wrap with cheese and peppers.... I call them and tell them about the mistake and they say, "oh, well you weren't specific about the turkey club. that's the turkey breakfast special"... yeah, so, every turkey club ever has consisted of peppers, eggs and cheese, right? " come back and prove to us that there is no turkey in it" - NO JOKE. They told me to bring back my food that they screwed up the order of and PROVE to them that they screwed up the order. I come back with the food and I'm friendly to them and even apologize for the whole situation. I give back the wrap and then get a lecture from an employee about the differences in ordering lunch and breakfast, like I'm a feral child who just left the house for the first time. Fine, whatever, I just want my food. I wait a bit and the woman finally displays my actual order... "This is what you wanted, right?" and it's the club sandwich. Yes. That's what I've wanted all along. She then charges me the difference in price for their mistake. No compensation whatsoever, no admission of screwing up. I was paying the difference for their mistake. She even got pissed when I used my credit card, stating that there was a limit. I'm not going to take money out of your crazily-fee'd store ATM, because you screwed up my order and are making me pay for it. No. That's not how things work. She finally agrees to let me pay with my card and I go home with my turkey club sandwich. I'm starving at this point. I rip open the container and just begin eating the sandwich.... but... it's a little funny. Doesn't taste right. Oh, look, the turkey is PINK. The sandwich is completely pink. The sandwich looks like bubblegum on bread. Gordon Ramsay wouldn't even be able to dismiss it as raw, he would have a heart attack and die at the sight of it. It was so inedible. But , it's my fault for eating a few bites without looking. I'm going to have food poisoning soon, I'm sure of it. Thank you Lite Bites! read more

Lite Bites - Salmonella Club Sandwich. Mmmmmm.... - Delis Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I truly cannot understand the poor reviews for this neighborhood gem! In my two year search for a delicious budget brunch in Brooklyn, nothing comes even close to Lite Bites. Since discovering this clean and friendly establishment, I have become a weekly regular. My favorites so far are their omelettes, whole wheat french toast, yogurt parfaits ($2.50!), fresh coffee, and french fries with gravy and mozzarella. This diner sized menu is gynormous so there's plenty more cheap meals to sample. As per the name, Lite Bites is not only lite on your wallet but on your stomach as well! All of their ingredients are fresh as can be, and this is one of the only places in the area that offers healthy alternatives. Of course, I can always hop on over to Momo's Vegan Lettuce Factory, but the healthy options are for my girlfriend...I would like some meat with my bacon, thank you!! read more

I used to order delivery from this place a lot when I worked in Greenpoint. That was last year, and I found that then, there weren't a lot of good cheap places that would deliver, particularly for breakfast. We would get a bagel platter with cream cheese, butter, etc, muffins, hard boiled eggs, and other typical office breakfasty things. All simple, but good. I particularly love their muffins in fact. I miss my morning cappuccino muffin. Lunches are also yummy from here. Their burgers and fries travel well because they deliver pretty quickly. Normally, I would avoid soggy fries and burger buns, but here they came out nicely. I like their sandwiches too, but the particulars escape me now, one year later. They are friendly, even in the early morning. And they have SMOOTHIES! read more

Absolutely solid diner offering a big range of brunch and breakfast items at prices far below the typical brunch prices just south of here. Therefore, heavily patronized by Greenpoint locals and smart Yelp folks :) They're particularly great because they substitute egg whites for regular eggs without any fuss, and there are more than a few options on the menu that can be made reasonably healthy (for a diner, of course). Their omelets are enormous, and the home fries are good. Do note that they use canned mushrooms in the omelets, which can be less than great, but their ingredients are otherwise fresh and satisfying. (Or greasy and satisfying, depending on what you're looking for. Hello, mozzarella sticks!) I always enjoy their pancakes, and their lunch items look really good, too. Frequent coffee refills (as opposed to the precious, limited french press-ness of so many nearby joints), great prices, and a friendly staff make this a go-to place. read more
