Was in Brooklyn for an appointment and my cousin suggested this place. It was really good. The service was great. Our waiter Zach was very attentive. Especially seeing it was his first day. I got the chicken and toast which was fried chicken thigh and french toast with berries. My cousin them got the fish and grits and they both enjoyed it. Will definitely go back. It was a nice atmosphere but I can see the summer it being the spot. read more

I wish I could only rate the food because it's really good soul, comfort food at a reasonable price but I have to rate the whole experience. I went on the first nice spring Sunday. They even had outdoor seatings. I clocked the time we sat to actually getting a menu which was 10 mins then then wait from menu to put in an order was 24 minutes. I debated every minute after the 15 to leave but my legs and stomach would not let me lol. When the food came out I was favorite pleased. Honestly the Fried Chicken Platter could feed two. It if hefty portion and it's delicious. Please don't skip the mac and cheese. read more

So good! Great staff (shout out to Magicc,) and great atmosphere. Best. Grits. Ever.

Peaches Lewis is the first spot my friends and I dined at on our first day in New York and this place really set the tone for our trip here! We did a walk-in for a group of 8 people and got seated right away. The wait time for our food was reasonable because the restaurant was super crowded and we had a big group. Their playlist was amazing! It was all early 2000s R&B and no restaurant in San Jose California plays good music like this anymore. I believe 30 minutes later our food comes in at the same time. I ordered the Jim Cade Breakfast and easily killed that plate within seconds. As basic as it is, they perfected everything on the plate (eggs, toast, bacon, grits). The grits was AMAZING. I've never had grits that good before and It made me upset that I wouldn't find grits that taste like this back home. The service and food was great! It was definitely worth the 7 minute walk from our Airbnb. read more

This spot is the ultimate brunch vibe! From the moment you walk in, the music is bumping, the energy is high, and the air is filled with amazing smells. It's lively, fun, and the perfect backdrop for a weekend feast -- and it doubles as a great spot for a fun dinner vibe too. Their all-day menu is loaded with southern comfort eats, portions are huge, and seafood reigns supreme. Highlights from our table: creamy, cheesy mac and cheese that hits every craving; shrimp and grits loaded with flavor, tender shrimp in a dreamy white wine sauce; a giant shrimp po'boy piled high with jumbo shrimp and a sauce you'll want more of; perfectly cooked calamari with flavorful dips; steak frites with perfectly cooked steak and truffle parmesan fries; and catfish that's crispy outside and melt-in-your-mouth inside. Even the fried shrimp were huge and juicy. The spinach artichoke dip was okay, not the best. Service is friendly and welcoming, but can slow down when it's packed -- and it does get packed. They don't take reservations, so plan to come early or be ready for a wait. Drinks were solid, though our beers could have been much colder. Prices are fair for the quality and portions, and there's plenty of indoor and outdoor seating. Whether you're with family, on a date, or doing a girls' brunch, this place delivers a fun, flavorful experience worth coming back for. read more

I don't know what the poor reviews are about. Visited last Saturday evening for the first time, was seated quickly. Very cute and cozy environment with a vibe. Was greeted warmly by our server, he answered all of our questions. We started with OVEN BAKED GRITS Simmered Black Angus Beef, Parmesan, Arugula Salad, OMG so delicious, ate every bite including the salad. Also had, FRIED CALAMARI served with tartar sauce, crunchy and flavorful. For my entree (pretty full, took it to go) I had the shrimp po boy, cones with coleslaw, Caesar salad as my side. Po boy was good, soft bread and crunchy shrimp, no complaints here. Really enjoyed my meal here. read more

If you haven't been to the Southern restaurant Peaches, you need to get there quick! ! It's small, cozy with good vibes and great music ! The staff are friendly and service is great but can be slow . Location is Lewis Ave off of Decatur St . I tend to be there when they open for dinner on a Saturday at 5pm . The wait can be long! It can be a bit pricey $50-$100 but you get good size portions . My favorite dish is the fried Catfish and grits with a side of collard greens . But everything on this menu is delicious ! I also love the shrimp and grits but sometimes there's not enough sauce in them . The eggs and French toast are amazing . The corn bread is slap yo momma good and while I prefer my own Mac and Cheese , this one I will eat ! You can't go wrong with anything you order here . Try the Sweet Georgia Brown or Brownstone Punch ! The is limited street parking but like anywhere in Brooklyn you'll be parking and walking. read more

Peaches - Brunch menu - Southern Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Came on a Sunday for brunch for two around noon and waited about 20 minutes. It was quite busy. - Chicken and toast: chicken was juicy and crispy. The syrup from the French toast and the hot sauce on the table gave it a hot honey flavor, highly recommend - Shrimp & grits: a little on the watery side but flavor was there - Smoked Chicken and Sausage Gumbo: flavorful and filling - Corn bread: a little dry for my liking, but with a slab of butter it made it better Overall, a pretty solid place if you're craving southern food. read more

AMAZING! went to a poetry night in Brooklyn and my friends and I were recommended this location. Everything was truly delicious and tasteful. Service was great we were seated right away with no reservations. Ambiance was spacious and decent! My friends ordered the shrimp, Mac and cheese and catfish and I ordered the shrimp po boy and the buttered pound cake! Everything was beyond delicious! Can't wait to visit again read more

Grits: I wish they had a more forward flavor. Calamari: had a good texture, but not a super crispy breading on the outside if that's what you're looking for. Their cocktails were good. read more

I loved the ambiance and decor in Peaches. The staff is very hospitable especially Dominick. The food comes out very fast which is great. It's also tasty, very southern comfort breakfast which they great on. Their starters are a must! Only improvement I have is my steak was more well done than medium but it was still good nonetheless. read more

2 Peaches locations done, both with great results. The breakdown: This location is slightly larger than Peaches Hothouse a couple blocks from this area and twice as busy so there was a wait to order my food to get the attention of any of the waiters, but I have to say, the waitress that served me was very courteous when it was my time to order. The place does have a bit of Southern aesthetic to it being dimly lit but you wouldn't entirely notice on the day I went because it was very sunny outside. Fortunately the food preparation didn't take as long as it did for any of the servers to notice me and I my order was brought to me in the most immaculate presentation possible, it was picturesque I didn't want to ruin it but I was hungry. I ordered the Jumbo Shrimp Po'Boy with Fries. I thought it was a choice between fries or the side salad which happened to be coleslaw but I got both anyway. I don't care for coleslaw period so I didn't touch it. I started off on the fries, nice and tender to the touch with the right type of crisp, just like the other Peaches in Bed-Stuy. The Po'Boy was MASSIVE. They gave me a healthy serving of shrimp that I thought I'd have to dislocated my jaw to even bite into it but I managed, evenly so to the point that I was shocked I didn't make a mess of myself. That Po'Boy legit tasted like having it in New Orleans, just absolutely divine. Also had some Strawberry Lemonade with it which might have been a mocktail because it did have the aftertaste of one. The taste of itself as a whole was pretty good. The Tiger Woods I had from the other Peaches spot is slightly better but this Peaches didn't have my favorite half and half on the menu so it would have to do. Of course the whole meal came up to $29 whilst giving a $4 tip as a job well done on service. All that's left is Peaches Prime and Grand. I'm already stoked to get there, after I can feel like I can afford it. read more

This Peaches location is just okay. We went on a Sunday without a reservation so the wait was very long. We ended up sitting outside. The food was mediocre to me. I ordered the shrimp po'boy and I'd give it a 3.5/5. read more

Consistency at its finest! When I lived in Brooklyn, Sunday brunches here were the norm ! I was a regular. Since moving, I haven't been back. I was craving the French toast so I made my way here and I was extremely happy that no only was the menu everything I expected but the food still tasted INCREDIBLE. I can't tell you the worry I had that maybe the menu switched up or they had a new chef who decided to change the recipes. Welpp if it ain't broke don't fix it! And they don't need to fix anything here! Service, food, music , drinks ..everything is just right! read more

I love Peaches, and it's one of the best spots for brunch if you're in the mood for Southern food. It's never completely booked to the point where there's a long wait. Every time I go, I've been able to get in without making a reservation, which is rare for a lot of popular eateries. Peaches does a great job of keeping things moving, and I think it's because they serve food relatively quickly without cutting corners. If you're a fan of chicken and waffles, this place is perfect. They've got all sorts of waffle options--red velvet, Oreo-inspired, and more. Back in 2021, I had my first experience with white barbecue sauce here, which I didn't even know was an Alabama thing until then. The authenticity of their Southern cooking, paired with their Harlem-inspired flair (chicken and waffles originated in Harlem, after all), makes this place stand out. You can tell they put a lot of time and resources into perfecting their sauces and menu. Peaches isn't just for those with a sweet tooth; it's also great if you want something savory. The Cornmeal Crusted Catfish with salt and pepper fries is a solid choice, and their fried chicken is always on point. If you want something hearty, try the Turkey Meatloaf with mashed potatoes and mushroom gravy. The atmosphere is cozy and inviting, with a barnyard-inspired wooden interior and a nice outdoor patio for warm days. It's near a school, so if you're not a fan of hearing kids during your meal, weekends or summer afternoons are your best bet. That said, it's a perfect spot for a chill Sunday or Saturday brunch. They also do delivery if you live nearby, and the food comes in sturdy, well-packed containers. This place feels like home to me, and every detail--whether it's the warm hospitality, quick service, or the thoughtfully crafted menu--makes it one of my top recommendations. If you're looking for a spot to enjoy Southern comfort food in Brooklyn, you can't go wrong with Peaches. Just prepare for some indulgence--think fat, carbs, and sweets--but trust me, you won't be disappointed. read more

I have been here several times. Definitely different cooks and different menus. Today I had the best salad, which was amazing. I requested the Greek yogurt on the side. The arugula was fresh and the pickled onions were great for the crunch. The beets and the dressing were light and inviting. My friend had the catfish and grits. I tasted it and it was delicious! We also had the sautéed spinach with garlic and it was perfect and not overly salty. The fried chicken was ok. Next time I will try the shrimp with my salad. The coffee was also very good. Our waiter, was Dominick. He was great He explained the food preparation and offered options. My friend was from out of town and enjoyed the dining experience as well as the background music being played. read more

Had such an amazing time during my first visit to Peaches! Everything was great - the service, the ambiance, and of course the food. I ordered the chicken and French toast combo and it hit the spot. What I enjoyed most about the ambiance was the music being played! The person that was sitting next to me and I were singing along to the songs - it was a vibe! Would definitely recommend Peaches but be prepared to wait - it's a popular place! As it should be :-) read more

Salmon burger was so good. Never had a bad peaches experience. Always friendly folks and delicious food.

Excellent experience from the food to the service! The catfish strips were out of this world SO FIRE! the grits were also unique in the way it was prepared but very good.

OK, this is the first time I've been to peaches Lewis for the brunch menu. I went during dinner before had the salmon over spinach & it was delicious.. now let's get to the brunch it was packed. My friend got there ahead of me so she put us on the list so there's no waiting. We were seated right away. We started with the spinach dip with chips. It wasn't seasoned at all. We added salt and hot sauce. I opted for the black Angus burger the way he didn't ask how I wanted it, but I made sure to tell him medium well. my friend got a scrambled eggs and a kale salad. She said the kale salad and the peanuts they put on it just didn't pair well or was too many nuts. The burger was decent, but it was not seasoned at all. It was just like they threw it on the grill and put it on my bun with no condiments from the reviews. They said this is like a southern spot southern places normally have seasoning in my opinion are the ones that I've been to. I will go here again for dinner but not for brunch. read more

Been coming here ever since they opened about 10 years ago. The food is amazing and so is the cultural vibe of soul and Caribbean music. Trust and believe when you dine here you will certainly taken back to the days of your grandmas comfort food. The catfish fingers, the shrimp po boy, the shrimp and grits, the cheeseburger, the baked lemon chicken, collard greens, fried green tomatoes and gumbo are all must haves. The homemade lemonade is great too. The service is fast so if you are in a hurry and don't have much time to wait for food this is the perfect place for you. We were in and out in an hour and that's with having an appetizer and meal. read more

Seated right away on a Tuesday afternoon. D'ussè Limonada very strong, later my entire meal. Started with the spinach artichoke dip, a tad bland- the pico de gallo added the boost it needed (also with some table salt). Ordered the fried catfish and grits, fried catfish was to perfection, wish I could say the same about the grits. Very mid and oddly textured, did not taste of any cheese. Service was ok. read more

I absolutely love this place. Went for Sunday brunch on an early afternoon. It was busy and packed, while this place was packed it runs smoothly and the wait is not that long at all. The service is excellent, our server was Kevin and he was so patient and helpful. Thanks Kevin, I'll be back. The ambiance is comfortable the vibe was amazing and great music. Definitely felt like I was at Sunday dinner with friends and family at home. We had Bellini's and the Ladies and Gentleman punch. We had the catfish appetizer that came with coleslaw and salad. Spinach and artichoke dip. Shrimp and grits with a cream sauce. Catfish with grits, blackened catfish with home fries and creamed spinach. Topped it off with bread pudding. When I say delicious it was scrumptious!!!! I can't wait to go back. read more

Hummm....the ambiance was cafe casual and clean. The service was acceptable but not Wow! The food was average as well! The spinach dip had no seasoning. The gumbo was good but I question if it's home made and not ordered from a purveyor. If I'm in that part of town...sure I would patronize again. read more

When I tell you this food was so good! I ordered the fried catfish and prawns. The fish and the prawns were so massive! The fry on each was perfectly crispy and seasoned so well. I couldn't eat it all, but couldn't stop either! And, the vibe! The music was bumping, so you got to burn some calories seat dancing while eating. A win-win for all! Next time I'm in town, definitely will be a stop here! read more

I ordered the beet salad with grilled shrimp. It was not the best I've ever had, but it was good. I'm sure there are better things on the menu to have, especially since they're known for their soulfood. Only place with great music and awesome service. Be ready to vibe to the tunes. Don't think you are going to pull up and immediately park; because you might have to search for a space depending on the time of day. But it's not difficult. read more

This is a solid consistent food weekend brunch find. My go-to order is the Jim Cade breakfast ( pork bacon & yummy grits). The shrimp n grits are also tasty. The Brownstone punch is popular. I prefer the pear cider. Though they don't currently accept reservations, on the weekends I have rarely waited more than 20 minutes for food and even less if there is available bar seating. I believe there is live instrumental entertainment on Wednesday evenings. Nearby: Brooklyn Public Library, Therapy Wine Bar read more

a fun and vibrant brunch spot! really enoyed our time at Peaches for Saturday brunch. On top of the food shown, we also ordered a pitcher of the Grand Mimosa! The menu was fairly limited to other brunch places that typically have a huge menu; a good or bad thing depending on who you are. We ordered the Jim Crane breakfast platter, Fried Chicken & Waffles, Salmon Scramle, and a classic breakfast platter. Everything solid! Not amazing, but done well. The mimosa was fantastic. Staff was super sweet and the place was lively. Won't be back, but really enjoyed my time here. 3.5/5 read more

Went to breakfast here to celebrate my roommate's birthday. We started off with drinks and since I wasn't drinking I got an orange juice. It was not good at all so I had my friends taste it and they agreed. It was probably from frozen/concentrate, but any restaurant should serve it fresh. My food was decent- the salmon scrambled eggs. But as soon as they set it down I noticed the portion was surprisingly small. They either used one large egg or maybe two medium eggs. Either way, the size was really disappointing for $19. It tasted good though. read more

Sheeesh Peaches is a true southern establishment in both their food (yummy) but also their service speed (taking their sweet time aka on the slower side of life). Don't get me wrong, the food is very flavorful and it is evident that the chefs put all the seasonings and works into each dish. I got the cheese grits that had meat on the bottom and which came with a side arugula salad. The grits were cheesy and rich and the arugula salad was dressed with cheesy parmesan. We also got a pitcher of mimosas to share for a party of 6 but sadly the pitcher was weee tiny and each of us ended up only drinking about a 1/3 maybe of a cup. The mimosa was strong however because it was the one with a shot in it. Now where I deduct stars is because service is on the slow side. The place is definitely very very very busy on the weekends. We probably waited about 40mins for a table and then it took a long while probably about 25 minutes for the food to get to us after ordering as well. All in all, what was supposed to be a 1.5 hr brunch turned into a 3/3.5 hr brunch with all of the wait time. If you are not in a rush, Peaches is a nice cute spot but if you're running on a schedule just know that Peaches is running on their own schedule too haha. But in some ways it's very southern in their slow movements, not nyc at all. I know the servers are doing their best to accommodate. read more

stopped by Peaches after leaving the Brooklyn Library. Peaches is located on a tree line block surrounded by brownstones with a small signage its easy to miss. Inside is cozy ,there is also outdoor seating in the backyard. It was late afternoon , there was a small crowd but not to busy. We ordered from the everyday brunch menu. Steak ,eggs and grits $27.50 Chicken and toast $19.50 and a side of mac & cheese to share. I enjoyed the steak it was sliced and cooked to my likeness. The grits were nice and creamy. The fried chicken and waffles come with fresh berries. The amount of powdered sugar on the french toast made it more of a dessert. The portion size is not a lot , not a little , but just enough. The food at Peaches is Southern and comfort is the ambience ! read more
