First, a heartfelt thank you to Jonathan and his team. We were strangers in a strange land and they…read morewent out of their way to be welcoming and cared for us in a way that feels especially noteworthy during the age of COVID. We were waiting for visiting hours at the hospital down the road and are so grateful Yelp led us to this coffee shop. Although indoor seating wasn't currently available, they moved a table and chairs outside for us so we could relax and enjoy our excellent mocha. I also appreciated that when we received our drink, the barista asked us to let him know how it was and if any adjustments were needed. Rest assured, it was perfect. After reading other reviews, I purchased a chocolate babka (my first) for the road and our whole family enjoyed it later that evening. So rich and decadent that I was happy to share. After two week-long visits to NYC and its boroughs, this was one of our favorite experiences because it was filled with kindness. The majority of our customer experiences were so rushed (next!) and transactional, that it was almost an other worldly experience to have someone take their time, care about their product and your experience, and just take a breather from city life. When in Brooklyn, we'll be back.

The food is super fresh, and coffee hit the spot everytime! There's plenty of metered parking, but if you want free parking, you need to park a few blocks off the main area.

I ordered the Journey to Baku salad, the Turkish bread, and the Guru Khingal. The salad needed a pinch of salt, but there was a shaker on the table and with that addition, it was a decent refreshing appetizer. It's sort of a spread so I would recommend ordering some bread to eat with it. The bread came out steaming hot and smelling amazing. It was soft and fluffy on the inside and delicious. I took the extra home and ate it all immediately when I got there. Delicious bread. The Guru Khingal is honestly one of the best things I've ever eaten in New York City. I wasn't sure exactly what to expect, as I have never eaten this type of food before. The tender, handcut pasta seems to be layered with flavorful lamb fat like the most decadent possible buttered noodles and the ground lamb topping is rich and perfectly seasoned. The yogurt sauce gives the dish balance. It's a fairly large portion that could easily be shared between two. I highly recommend this spot, the glowing reviews are not exaggerating at all. I often like to try new and unusual restaurants, and sometimes I enjoy them mostly for the novelty. That was not the case at Village Cafe. My meal here was delicious and I am eager to return, even with the 75 minute commute from north Brooklyn.

I felt like I was inside someone's home and felt welcomed and comfortable. Not loud and well lit. Service (5/5): We came at an off hour during the weekend around 1:30pm there was still around 6 parties dining in. The staff provided good recommendations and good service. When asked for water without any lemon slices, they provided bottled water at no extra cost! Food: (4/5) - rated New York Times top 100 Best Restaurants in New York City in 2025 Every dish came with a small cup of sour cream / Tzatziki based sauce that went with every dish. This was a must and this was mastered very well. Kutaby with chicken and lamb (4/5) - we ordered one each but the lamb was far superior than the chicken. Guru Hingal (4/5) - served in a warmed bowl with a lid in a bed of soft pasta and minced lamb. The pasta reminded me of chow fun (Chinese rice flat noodles) and then some seasoned minced lamb. While overall there were flavors in there, it was still lacked flavors and required to be drowned in the Tzatziki sauces or perhaps a order of table hot sauce. Finally we got the Lamb Lulya Kebab (5/5): this was by far the best dish of the meal! The meat was so wonderfully seasoned throughout, juicy, and complemented well with the rice, onions, and tomato based dip. The wraps themselves were way too small to enjoy using hands so we definitely reconstructed on our plates and attempts with our hands.

The people who work there were pretty friendly. Male employee who made my coffee wore a mask but they 2 others didn't. I think they should make a rule to have it on during the entire shift. I know it's hard to breathe but, being safe is a priority. They serve pasteries and baked goods but were stored in a case. I would rather be more willing to purchase if they were individually wrapped just for sanitary reasons. I hope this changes since we live at a time of the pandemic. Thank you for staying open and keeping Brooklyn awake with your wonderful brew!

I've been here twice and both times I came I got the Dulce de Leche cinnamon latte and the French toast with fruits. Both very yum. I also have had their croissant breakfast sandwich which was also yum. The service is okay, not the greatest when it comes to being seated or acknowledged when you walk in. You kind of have to have been there before to understand how the set up works. You order at the front and grab a table if any left. You grab a menu so you can peruse on line before it's your turn to order. Then you're given a table number stand which you place on your table so the servers know where to bring your food. It's not noisy so you can hear your companion talk so this is definitely a good place for a coffee and chat.
