Stopped by for brunch and the food was well prepared and tasted good. The service was equally as good. The ambiance was pretty bland but that is part of their charm. The bathrooms need a little tlc,
I try to make it a tradition for me to go to peaches every year for my birthday (9/10). I don't believe i made it last year, but i was making sure i made it this year. Specifically for brunch. It is my favorite neighborhood gem and has been for years! Each time i come i get the same breakfast. The Jim Cade breakfast. It comes with your choice of bacon or sausage, eggs, cheese grits or potatoes and granola French toast with a few berries on the side. It's still a great breakfast. But the French toast fell off badly. It used to be this thick brioche toast that was crunchy and sweet and was so dang goood! It was my favorite French toast in the city and the main reason i continuously and consistently order the Jim Cade. The French toast this time seemed to be regular white bread which was a bit disappointing. It didn't hold the same crunch that it did prior. I hope they bring back the original bread. The grits are always a 10/10. The bacon is always good as well. The eggs were a little wet for my liking. My boyfriend also hated the sausage. It really did look and taste like it was old. It wasn't juicy at all. Just very dry. Like it was being under a heat lamp all day. He took a small bite and said nope. Smh. The service is give a 3.5 outta 5. Again, it used to be great. It just lost a little bit of its magic to me this time around. The server was very nice whenever she did check on us. Which was probably once. We had to track her down for the check. Someone else brought us our food and drinks. So we barely saw her unless she was running around behind her other tables. I still tipped pretty good. But the service can be a bit better and more attentive to ALL customers. The decor looked a little light this time. Me and my boyfriend came here for our first date and there was this painting on the wall that looked like Kobe Bryant holding a pitch fork. We laughed about that picture for 2 years promising to go back and visit. Once we did, he wasn't there. So that was a bit disappointing lol. Otherwise the vibes were cool. Good r&b music. The drink was strong as ever! Which i loved and so did my boyfriend. All in all 3.5. I'll be back again next year for my annual tradition for brunch. Hopefully it'll be a bit better this time around. See pics below
Whenever I visit Brooklyn brunch at Peaches is a must. I know they have several locations but this is the only one I have visited. Food is always on point. Brunch menu has almost no misses. The salmon, grits and cheesy eggs is one of my favorite. The greens are delicious, especially with some hot sauce. Can't go wrong with anything on the menu. Drinks can be hit or miss but we told our waiter and she made them again.
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.
Every time I come in here, they treat me like they met before which is very kind because Ive only been three times. When I go each time, I make sure I always get a side of mac & cheese as a must. The food is great, not too oily or over seasoned, which is perfect for me. They're also always playing very soft R&B, which that's a very calm in the space.
Came here on a Sunday around 1:00 PM and had about a 40-minute wait. The restaurant is very small, but the service was great. We started with the wings, which were a solid 8/10. My partner ordered the steak omelet with cheese grits, and the grits were probably the best thing we had, I'd give them an 8.5/10. I ordered the fried chicken sandwich, and unfortunately it was very disappointing. Other than the wings and grits, everything else was under a 5/10. For all the hype, I was not impressed at all. This was my first visit, and I honestly wouldn't return. The service was good, but the food did not live up to expectations. They need a new chef.
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.
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.
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.
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
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.
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.
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.

2018 September so the outdoor seating was off limit. The dinning area seemed so tiny to me so I opted for the bar. What am I saying, I always prefer the bar. I tried the grits and shrimp. Been wanting to try grits for a minute. I loved it. The shrimp sauce with the mushroom, scallions and white wine tasted so great over the grainy grits. I'll be back if only for that. The flounder/w/FF and coleslaw couldn't stand next to the grits. Nice staff. Management seemed cool too. Patrons extremely nice. Ladies the toilet is only for backing in, stooping, acrobatic flush, sideway hand wash and out. Tiny room. Make sure the door is locked though. I like Peaches. The End. read more

First time here and I feel in love with the atmosphere. It was somewhat quaint yet popping ambience with good music playing, loud enough to enjoy but not so loud whereas it drowned out the conversation. The crowd was a motley bunch with no real predominant group when we came. The short wait on a Sunday early afternoon was worth it, as the tantalizing food aroma made you want to wait and eat. We (a party of 4) were told it would be 45 minutes, but we were seated in 20 minutes. That was great, considering the crowd and smell of food allowed even me, a innately impatient person, the ability to wait. The food did not disappoint! I had a side of granola crusted French toast with fresh fruit(yummy) and the shrimp and grits. The proportion sizes were adequate, not to much, and enough to satisfy. I noticed, as I looked around, people were cleaning their plates, as did we! I had to take a little to go and wouldn't think of leaving it. The service was excellent, even though it was quite busy, and the waitress was very attentive and helpful. I will definitely return. read more

Really nice spot for a small brunch, seating is tight but it's NY so that's expected. Ordered oven baked grits the start which was the only thing I was able to photograph lol. Paired with the arugula salad super delicious! We also ordered the fried shrimp, fresh and crispy with yummy sauce. I finished with the chicken and toast and dusse limonada. My bf order the Turkey meat loaf with greens and cornbread, all very good! read more

BREAKFAST at PEACHES JIM CADE BREAKFAST* - Scrambled Eggs, French Toast, Bacon, Grits This classic American restaurant that gives you a strong sense of the South with this super delicious breakfast; is standing room only on a glorious Sunday morning. . Oh my goodness, scrambled eggs with cheddar cheese were Perfect, the French toast is the absolute best I've had in years. And then there is the super thick crispy bacon which I used to stand up straight in my thick cheese grits I literally ate everything on my plate and took have an order of French toast home with me My only regret is that this restaurant is very popular and it took an amazing 45 minutes to be seated and I wish they would reupholster the seating along the squeaky clean windows . #MyHungryWorld #SkinnyGirlsLuvFood2 read more

After hearing how much of a staple in the community Peaches was/is it was finally time to give a go. I couldn't give it 5 stars only because the breakdown of how patrons are seated was a bit odd to me. Here's why. When you arrive, you approach the hostess stand. Simple right. I thought I was approaching the stand to put my name down for a reservation, see how long the wait was, etc. But instead, upon arrival you place your order immediately, are given a number and told to find a seat. When I arrived, all of the tables were occupied, so I was confused as to why I would place the order now, and risk my food being prepared, when I wouldn't be able to be seated. It all ended up working out, by the time I finished ordering one table was made available, but I wondered how that would work for patrons who were unable to find a table instantly. But on to the food, and boy was that tasty! I ordered the fried chicken sandwich with fries (I was told to have them add their bbq seasoning to the fries) and a side of sauteed spinach and cornbread. My date had their french toast (which he raved about) with a side of bacon and bbq fries. The bbq seasoning on the fries isn't overbearing at all, just gives it a nice twang of flavor. The fried chicken was huge and perfectly cooked, crispy & flavorful. The sauteed spinach was some of my fav, that garlic flavor was POTENT and I am a fan. The cornbread was also quite good; not the best I've ever had but I throughly enjoyed it. And the french toast, encrusted with granola ohhhhh man. That mess was SLAMMING. We also ordered two of their alcoholic punches. I had the bourbon, lemonade, mint and blueberry drink which tasted really good but not strong at all, just a heads up. Overall I'd come back, there's other items on the menu that looked fantastic so I'll see what it looks and feels like on another day! read more

I've been to peaches multiple times, many of those times I'm the first one waiting for them to open the door on a Saturday morning. I love this place for brunch. The decor has beautiful, southern charm. The staff is friendly and welcoming. And the food is always fantastic. There usually is a line at the door so be aware you'll probably have to wait. (I've only been here for brunch) 4 stars because it's expensive! Look at the menu before you go. The food: Jim Cade Breakfast is a must (especially for your first time here) Granola crunch French toast Jumbo shrimp po boy (not my fav, the shrimp falls out of the pun but the coleslaw is good) Oven baked grits will change your life in the best way Atlantic salmon croquettes are delicious but not as filling as I thought (I might just have a huge appetite) Bellini with all of the above are fantastic! Go here, you won't regret it but your wallet might. read more

Came back to peaches on a very hot summer day! The wait wasn't long at all for 2 people. On this visit, I tried a cocktail: wasn't a fan of the Brownstone rum punch, it was more bitter than sweet (be sure to skip that). The food was just as good as last time. I got the granola French toast with a side of eggs. Hubby got the Jim Cade with extra grits, because they no longer do substitutions. This was my only issue with Peaches. You should be able to sub out for allergies or dietary preferences. As a vegetarian, I can't eat the meat options, so with most brunch options I just switch out the meat for something else (pretty simple). Without this option, the only thing I can do is "build a meal" which costs more money and a lot more food that I don't need. Overall still good service and food and great music! read more
Went here to celebrate the occasion and I found that the food was much tastier than expected based on the last time I was there. I ordered the chicken and French toast because they didn't have waffles and although I wanted waffles, the French toast was soooo delicious. I don't even like French toast. I mean it was perfectly battered and buttered. The amount of syrup they gave me was perfect and the chicken was seasoned just right. The rum punch had me feeling like I was in the Caribbean but probably because it was so hot outside...that drink was felt. Though I was treated for the occasion, things seemed kinda pricey. But I'm ordering this meal again for sure. read more

Sitting with a few colleagues, I read through the menu quickly as the continual conversation had questions directed towards me, so I decided quickly. I'm not sure what makes a chicken wing a Brooklyn wing not having enough menu nor waiter time to ask, but I know a bit about Alabama White sauce. Unfortunately it was served as a tiny dipping sauce on the side, I had thought it would have been prepared into the wings flavor. As it stood by itself, the flavor did not impress me, I did not get a hint of vinegar, horseradish, cayenne, mustard powder. I did however get the mayonnaise taste, but without the other ingredients whisked together, it was not anything special unfortunately. When I see grits, I'm a buyer and there is rare occasion that I'll stray. Oven Baked Grits oddly does not appear on the websites lunch nor dinner menu, but was on the passed menus. The quality of the slow cooked braised ribs was quite good, as were the additional cheeses inside and on top. However, the portion was small for the money and after the meal I was gnawing the chicken bones for the marrow, I was still hungry. Eight dollars for a twelve ounce imported pear cider hit my eves hard, but I tried it anyway and the served temperature hurt the taste. A employee conversation was going on jyst to my left about how one hit another then told him "yo yo something something", completely low in vocabulary, quite inappropriate and was detracting from my groups time together. read more
I moved to New York about 11 years ago and I can't believe it took me this long to try this place. When I was in Brooklyn I kept missing the opportunities but so happy a friend invited us here for brunch. None of our meals were bad everything was absolutely delicious staff was friendly we had a reservation and was seated on time and I ordered the Miss Jackson picture which is just perfect even though they don't offer bottomless read more

You MUST try Peaches! I had such a great experience. All the staff members were so so friendly and inviting. My server Joe was not only kind, and polite, he had a vast knowledge of the menu. I had the Fried Chicken Sandwich, Wings, and a side of Grits (Joe's recommendations). Literally the best fried chicken sandwich I ever tasted! Sorry, Popeyes!!! Each bite was better than the last! The chicken wings are dipped into Peaches's homemade sauce. YUMMY!! It was my first time I had grits (sad but true). The grits were delightfully delicious! Thank you Peaches for such a great experience!! read more
One of my greatest joys is to be able to remove a bookmark, especially one that has just been sitting there for years. Peaches was my oldest bookmark, and I finally was able to visit--and I was very happy with my experience. Came here for a late Birthday Brunch with my mother. She got there about 25 minutes before me-- the wait time isn't so bad but be prepared, because it's a small waiting area but they do a good job of moving quickly. We were seated within five minutes of my arrival and given a seat by the window. Our server took awhile to come over but she was very pleasant and personable. I went with the Jim Cafe breakfast (eggs, home fries, french toast and turkey bacon) it was the perfect choice, along with a side of grits. My mother has the blackened catfish and grits. We both were extremely happy with the food, service and the prices were fair. I would definitely come here again and would recommend. I don't have anything negative to say about my experience, other than potentially the wait time, but they do have a bar to keep you occupied while you wait. read more

I've gone to Peaches a few times, and always find a reason to return because their food always hits the spot! Recently I went for brunch, and enjoyed the shaded outdoor seating with two of my girlfriends. My friends had a simple salad, a jumbo shrimp po boy, the blackened catfish, and Mac & cheese. I had the steak frites and Mac & cheese as well. I'm never disappointed with the service and quality of food at peaches! The rum punch was also a huge plus. Lastly, the chocolate cake and vanilla ice cream was the perfect way to end our meal. I paid for an extra school of ice cream being that we shared the dessert. read more

We visited on a Tuesday afternoon for lunch. Let me just say this, the food was amazing, the service was awesome and the ambiance was welcoming. We left stuffed. The one thing that surprised on a Tuesday afternoon it was packed!!! I mean jammed packed. You would have thought it was a weekend brunch. It's a sign that they are definitely doing something right. read more

This was the worst food I had in a long time don't waste your money on this place. They have absolutely no flavor the best thing in the restaurant is the lemonade I should've known what I was getting into with a place name peaches. I knew it was not going to be good. The ribs were hard to chew the chicken had more crust than meat. The Mac and cheese had no flavor, and the greens were black with no taste. They had to use canned greens. The prices didn't match the quality of the food. Again do not come here unless you wanna lose 100 dollars or more. They take the soul out of soul food read more

Peaches is one of my neighborhood favorites. The service is always great. The food is always good. I usually get the Jim Cade, Salmon Croquettes, Brooklyn Wings, Peach Melba, and/or Brownstone Punch... It's a real comfortable and accommodating place to eat. read more
Came here on Sunday for brunch. Was looking for a place that was open before 11 because and I wanted to be able to have brunch then attend to other things we had to do that day. I've heard a lot about Peaches and they opened at 10 am so we decided to give it a go. So there's the main restaurant then two doors down there an annex to the restaurant but they share the same kitchen. We went into the annex and sat at the bar as the tables were already filled. We sat there for a while before anyone even acknowledged us. I really thought we were invisible. Finally someone came over and gave us menus. We ordered drinks then food. We were sitting there for a while now, about a half hour. The restaurant is now full but then I look around and notice something. No One is Eating, No One Has Food! Wth! I turn to my bf and say we are in trouble, no one is eating, this is going to be a real problem. Some of the people that were there before we got there started to ask about their food. The waiter very nonchalantly said well it's Sunday. Um, what the hell is that supposed to mean, these people have been waiting an hour for breakfast food. They were quite unapologetic. Another 20 minutes go by and food finally starts to come out. It was another 15 minutes before we received food. The plate of food looked much better than it tasted. The French toast was good, eggs were fine but the potatoes were under seasoned. I really don't see myself coming back here again. The wait for food is unreasonable. read more
On this snowy Friday morning my friend and I went out for breakfast. I remembered seeing Peaches on someone's IG and I knew I'd have to make my way there one day. Well, today was that day. We were literally the first customers of the day lol. The staff was very friendly and inviting. It's a cozy little restaurant with loads of character and charm. I love the display of artwork. The waitress brought over a carafe of water and the menu right away. We basically ordered the same dish but he wanted grits and I wanted the potatoes. BTW....I made the waitress laugh when I asked if it was too early to have a cocktail (11am) and her reply was....No, it's never too early. Lol Needless to say, I ordered a cocktail and let me tell you....it was everything! The food...OMG...the food was amazing! I don't like my eggs over cooked and I ordered it scrambled soft. I don't know if you can tell by the pic but it looked like a cloud of eggs...it was perfect! The French toast was absolutely delicious with the fresh fruit and those potatoes....I need to learn how to cook them exactly the same way. Hopefully the manager will see this and somehow oblige with the instructions from the chef. The bacon was also cooked to perfection. This restaurant is like a hidden gem. Please do yourself a favor and choose them the next time you're looking for for a wonderful dining experience. Enjoy! read more

Ask the Community - Peaches Lewis
Do you need a reservation?
Peaches does not take reservations unless you are trying to reserve space for a party, at which we ask that you call and ask to speak to a manager about a private event. Thank you!
Do they have brunch on Mondays or only on the weekend?
There is an all day brunch menu with brunch options every time you go in, however, there is a slightly altered brunch menu that ONLY exists on Saturday (11am-4pm) and Sunday (10am-4pm) which includes different items than the regular peaches menu…
What's the biggest difference between this Peaches and the Hot House?
Peaches is bigger than Hothouse. They also have a bigger food selection. ??
Is it over priced I want to take my man there for a date Monday cuz we tried the pink tea cup we loved it but the prices and how the payment is set up I didn't like it?
Brunch would be your best bet so you can take advantage of bottomless mimosas but overall the prices are moderate (not cheap but not expensive either).
