My husband and I hosted our baby shower in Madeline's upstairs private room this weekend. It was such a great venue and we highly recommend it! Planning the event with Brenton was seamless and easy -- he answered my 100s of questions and was flexible with how it was structured. He gave good advice as to timing and decor tips. The day of, Jordan and Chris helped us in every way possible. They were so professional and quick, so meticulous and thoughtful. The upstairs private room is gorgeous, has wonderful lighting, and many guests asked how I found such a gem. 10/10! read more

Yes, I managed to drag Manhattan people here, and they thought it was an experience of a lifetime. First off - the drinks are absolutely delightful (even the warm drinks for the wintertime). Food in terms of shared bites, including the fries, wings, and tuna tartare had just an extra level of flavor. Oh and for now, it is pretty easy to get seating without feeling like you are crushing people left and right. The staff is also pleasant and funny. The ambiance is spacious, classy, with a very Brooklyn feel. Oh yes, and the value for the buck is simply amazing too. This is a great 2nd date spot or a gathering place for random friends! read more

This review is long overdue. I discovered Madeline's last year while looking for a venue for my birthday party. I went a few times to get a feel of the place and loved the ambiance - from the front bar to the private back room. So I decided to book the back room for my birthday and I would say, out of all the places I looked into, it was the most reasonably priced and beautiful. They allow you to have a decent minimum for F&B, bring in your own decor and cake, and play your own music. All of the food was delicious and you can also make your own cocktails. Important to note that they have many gluten free options including a chicken sandwich with a fresh bun. The service was great, they were very responsive and patient with my many questions. Since then, I recently went back for a friend's birthday and it was just as nice. The wings were delicious and the bartenders are very attentive. I noticed they have TVs for games, trivia nights, brunch and happy hour. It is a hidden gem in Greenpoint! read more

Talk about stylish. Came here for brunch on a rainy Saturday. I ordered the short rib chilaquiles add avocado and loved it. Lots of mole and it filled me up after a workout class. My friend got the breakfast tacos that she said were good. We sat in the corner booth which was very comfortable. It's a clean place and I can tell they upkeep it well. It was pretty empty during our dining which we appreciated. There is a long bar with seats with backs and an upstairs for private parties. The high ceilings and windows give the space a beautiful setting. I would definitely come back for dinner or drinks. read more

Super cute spot in Greenpoint serving craft cocktails and mocktails. Came here to celebrate a friend's birthday on a Saturday night in December and loved how festive the place was decorated. The bar was busy but not so packed that you had to fight for the bartender's attention. Madeline's cocktail menu is mostly gin and tequila/mezcal based drinks, which is really my only complaint about this place as vodka is my go-to. The bartenders were attentive and our waiter even helped us out with a cake to commemorate the birthday with. Food here is also tasty, mostly a small plates type of place, not necessarily a restaurant but a bar with food. Prices are also steep given the trendy location and craft cocktails -- but even the mocktails and mixed drinks will end up setting you back around $15 a pop. read more

I went to celebrate my best friends son engagement and truly liked the atmosphere at this place. They provided a nice room with a great bar and some good apps and a relaxed atmosphere to relax and share with good friends. The service was excellent and the apps were decent. They served some platters of fresh fruits, smoked salmon, pita chips and skewers that were very tasty, it just wasn't enough and so we left hungry! We went next door to Gotham Burger and enjoyed some burgers and fries. lol but we had a great time either way. The ipa's were fantastic and oh so cold. The place is cool with a hip young crowd and plenty of outdoor seating too. Parking can be a challenge though, you have to be patient and just drive around until you find one. read more

The drinks here were nice, but the real selling point for me was how cool the inside was. Servers were really nice and prompt. A great place for drinks of any kind. I wish I tried the food because it looks incredible. read more

All the tables were reserved but we snagged a seat by the bar. Drinks were great and it was easy to get our order in. Took off a star because we ordered French fries and it took over 45 minutes to arrive and when we asked it was too late to cancel. Thought they'd comp it or take it off because we finished our drinks and were just waiting. Ended up getting it to go. read more

Super cool spot. Awesome service, bartenders were helpful choosing drinks. Obsessed with the popcorn! Will definitely be back!

I came here with a big group for my friends birthday. It was so cute-- the perfect cocktail bar! I didn't order anything to eat, but the food looked great. I feel like this would be a great date night spot. read more

My wife and I hosted our baby shower at Madeline's and we couldn't be happier. Brenton and Sam were very professional and super easy to work with. They were very accommodating when it came to the space as well as pricing on the food and drinks (both of which were amazing). We were even allowed to set up earlier than the event start time which was very helpful. The main room is a beautiful open space with tons of natural light. Everyone had a great time and everything went smoothly. Brenton and Sam are genuine nice people, the type of people that we like doing business with! We will definitely be coming back and supporting them as a local business in the future. read more

Hands down LOVE this location. Funnily enough found it on my commute over to another location nearby and decided to give it a shot with a friend. Was not disappointed. The ambiance and interior design of the place amazing and loved the addition of the art and plants (would make for a cute date night spot). The food and drinks tastes wonderful and were portioned in a way that was great for sharing. The staff was warm and welcoming and overall thought the service was great. 12/10 experience - can't wait until my next occasion to come back in visit :) read more

A must visit. Beyond the welcoming and electric ambience, you find cocktails to die for (Cozy Season - in a league of its own) Everyone who has found their way to Madeline's is there for the very best reason -- to have a comfortable yet memorable night. If you see Brenton, ALWAYS say hi. He's a gift to the bar scene. Amazing place, amazing space read more

Delicious drinks, friendly staff, amazing vibes. The space is so pretty and loved their unique cocktail/mocktail offerings.

The cocktail was AMAZING, I love it when a cocktail is complicated and unique as this one was. The taco was taco of the day and also extremely good, simple and quality ingredients. My partner had a chicken sandwich, that one had too much aioli and fell to pieces after two bites. Service was okay, kind. Ambiance was great, we sat on the street, greenpoint summer is the best. read more

Brenton and Sam went above and beyond to make our company holiday party at Madeline's memorable! The venue, exceptional food (be sure to get the nachos!), and delicious cocktails created a fantastic experience that everyone enjoyed. Will definitely host other events here in the future. read more

Been loving going to Madeline's for brunch. They have a great breakfast sandwich and home fries and pancakes. It's nice and light, the soundtrack is hip and homey. It just feels like a groovy and easy spot to get some great food with nice people. read more

Their food and drinks have the consistent quality of better looks than substance. They should really get rid of the brussel sprouts since the dish tasted bland, was glazed with excessive oil all over, and the brussels weren't crispy at all read more

Stopped in for a cocktail with some small bites and I'm a fan! Loved the "Madeline" drink. Try the house popcorn. Looking forward to hopefully seeing the menu expand as this new neighborhood spot gains traction. read more

What a beautifully structured space and vibe. Came in with three friends looking to grab a quick drink before going dancing and we could not leave. A great DJ to dance to & a team beyond your wildest dreams. Brenton is such an MVP! Will be back... and back... and back read more

Best bar in greenpoint hands down. Amazing cocktails, kind bartenders, incredible cocktails. Great wine and beer selection

Elegant venue with amazing staff. I reserved the upstairs private room (refundable deposit, no fee) to host a party of 70 with a lineup of DJs, and cake served. The room has its own bar with service, seating, bathroom, and skylight (which we didn't use but I'd imagine would be nice). Brenton, the owner, is super responsive and on top of things. Cheers man! read more

Hosted an engagement party here back in January ... Brenton was super helpful and accommodating. Food was great, atmosphere was even better. Highly recommend ! read more
