Poppy's takeout cafe is such a wonderful neighborhood gem. Their baked goods, sandwiches, coffees and teas, roast chicken, salads, and frozen goods (biscuits!) are always delish. And their staff are super helpful. I also love to meet a friend a sit outside on a nice day there. read more

Breakfast pastries on POINT! Saw some patrons munching on plated hot breakfast items outside which looked pretty good too. Super cute establishment nestled in the neighborhood, even the dog sitting outside was smiling. Everything's on display as soon as you walk in and everything I tried was pretty tasty. I especially liked the galette. The two kiddos in our pack are obsessed with the fritters- kinda like donut holes but fancy. Probably worth trying a little bit of everything if you swing by! read more

Poppy's - coffee cake, scone, peach galette, fritters, biscuit - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I went here several times over a few weeks and got the same drink (iced card. maple latte) multiple times. Each time, it was made differently. It was not consistent. The hot version was not good at all - at least the one I had. I had the coffee cake which was pretty good but with so many bakeries around, would go elsewhere since they are more expensive than other places. If you go, it will be a toss up on if the drink comes out well or not. Super cute place and wanted to love it but didn't. read more

Absolutely delicious! I love their Lemon Poppy Loaf + Cold Brew. My favorite weekend stop!

My favorite coffee / breakfast spot in Brooklyn. Sitting outside on a sunny morning with an egg and biscuit sandwich or a seasonal frittata is pure magic. A black lab at our feet, friendly neighbors, young families and pleasant staff make the entire experience so pleasant. One disappointment is they are no longer offering their amazing "Overnight Oatmeal" -- please bring it back! Nonetheless, it's still the best little breakfast around. read more

Poppy's - Seasonal frittata, egg sandwich - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

Love poppy's. Had them cater for my baby shower which I held outdoors on a rooftop and everything was excellent and seamless. I ordered about 2 weeks in advance and set a window for a pick up time (they also deliver but for a fee). Everything was ready when my husband arrived. Was packaged beautifully, and everything was so good + more importantly held up super well despite sitting out for a few hours. I will definitely be using them for catering again. Also, on Friday and weekends, they have the best breakfast sandwich available in the store. read more

Yummy! Great service, cute ambiance with only outdoor seating. Lemon poppy seed loaf was to dir for. Coffee + loaf $14 read more

Poppy's is the perfect local spot to grab a delicious quick breakfast and a coffee! The most difficult part of the experience was deciding what to order. I ended up getting a pear/ chai scone and the frittata which were both extremely delicious. I think the frittata could have been a larger portion size but still good. My friend went for the ultimate egg breakfast sandwich on a colossal biscuit. Overall I was extremely pleased with the quality of the ingredients and I will certainly be back! read more

Poppy's - Egg breakfast sandwich on a biscuit - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

The breakfast sandwich is good. The friend chicken is cold. They won't heat it up. The staff is entitled and rude. I'd go back for the food, but not the rude 'tude. read more

Delicious tea lattes, beautiful front patio space to linger and incredibly friendly team!

I almost feel like I visited a different place than all the other reviewers since that was the worst iced coffee I've ever had. I got an iced coffee recently and it was so watered down, it tasted like when you drink all of the coffee in a cup and you are just drinking the melted ice at the bottom. The pastries were also kind of a disappointment. Lastly, really overpriced for what you're getting. read more

The cute atmosphere and pretty good pastries are not worth the snide, holier than thou attitude that this staff has. In February I had 4 friends staying with me from out of town and I was excited to show them this cute coffee shop near me. It was freezing cold rain on a Tuesday afternoon and we were excited for some hot coffee. When we entered the shop and were looking at the menu the woman working said "um I don't know what's going on here but only 4 people in the shop at once." Everyone was masked, no one else was there, and I had to go stand in the freezing rain by myself for 5 minutes while she made their drinks. My friends were shocked by this and it was such a shitty way to start off their trip. The other day I bought a cinnamon roll from them after not knowing the price. When she turned the iPad around it was $8.50 for a small cinnamon roll that wasn't even great! I guess I should expect that from the area but still... It's a beautiful day today and I was excited to get up and get some coffee on my morning walk. I waited in line (because of their 4 person rule ) and was holding my 4 pound chihuahua who doesn't walk on the ground and is virtually non existent. The woman without hesitation screamed, "I'm sorry no dogs!!!" I was shocked because there was no sign and also there's a difference when It comes to dogs. I understand a big wet dog but me holding my little dog wearing a $40 sweatshirt isn't that. Also I'm not going to tie him up outside so I can get a $6 coffee. This place is cute and it's in a good location because there's not much else around but like I said, they take their jobs extremely too seriously here. At the end of the day it's a coffee shop and I feel like every time I'm there I brace myself for an unpleasant experience. Henry Local is so much friendlier and pleasant! read more

A series of very good pastries and food. I highly recommend the popka (their take on a babka) - sweet and gritty and chocolatey! Chocolate chip cookie also good. The salmon tartine was tasty although there was a bit too much cream for my liking. I will be back! read more

They do an amazing an breakfast. Their coffee and baked goods are excellent (especially the buttermilk biscuit and the poppyseed loaf). Get there early on the weekends for a biscuit egg sandwich, it's worth the line. read more

We popped in here for some sweets and caffeine after a big lunch down the road a piece. We loved the sea salt chocolate chip cookies and the chocolate cinnamon sugar popkas, but the hot matcha and hot colombe coffee was awful. Perhaps we came near closing time and the drinks weren't fresh or were made hastily, who knows? But, we would still come back for dessert. read more

I love Poppy's! I love the catering, the cafe, the food and the staff. Happy to have a crew like you in New York! :) read more

Great coffee/sandwich/sweet treat shop. Lovely service. Delightful outside seating. All our coffee and tea selections were excellent.

I am sitting here eating a biscuit and the raspberry jam and I just need to take this moment to write a short love note to you. Poppy's: you are perfect. I miss being inside you, but it's okay, I understand...times have changed. You're still there for me when I need it most- under-caffeinated after an all-nighter, as I ravenously purchase three (...reader, I must admit, four) items for myself alone. I hide them in the kitchen so my partner doesn't suspect anything- so I don't have to share. I hope you can make it through this trying time! Just know I always think of you fondly... missing your cozy interior and its austere, understated beauty. And most of all your tenacious grit(s). read more

Everyone there is so friendly, their treats are divine and my coffee was delicious. Try the pistachio milk in your latte! Beautiful farm flowers too. read more

Everything I have ordered here, has exceeded my expectations and become the new favorite. Most memorable are the ricotta with honey, biscuits and breakfast galette. Service is consistently kind, patient and helpful. Folks never crowd the store, so there's never more than 2 people trying to decide what to order. read more

Catering review: learned about Poppy's from another catering company that couldn't accommodate us. So that word of mouth already set me at ease. I used Poppy's catering to celebrate my 1 year old's birthday. We got a bunch of platters, kabobs, and we even went with Poppy's for the birthday cake. We got rave reviews on everything. The platters were beautiful and delicious. My guests were full and happy. I don't leave reviews but the experience compelled me to do so here. 100% recommend for your next party or event. read more

We just used Poppys' for my daughter's bat mitzvah picnic and EVERYONE raved about the food. They set up covid friendly picnic boxes (including ones for the kids), individually wrapped flatbread pizza and utensils. The pizzas were to die for and the food was fantastic. Plus they were super flexible about some guests' dietary restrictions and were able to deliver to BBP where the party was. Jamie and Casey were amazing. I can't say enough good things about them and will definitely use them for my next event! read more

My go to's are the egg galette and the buttermilk biscuit. Whoever is working in the kitchen is a magician.

I got in to ask for a cup of water for my dog. I also wanted a coffee. Door was open . The woman told me to leave and that they had no water, the place was "closed". And she was talking to her aunt on the phone. read more

We love love love working with the Poppy's team. They always create a gorgeous, delicious experience from start to finishing. Jamie, Rachel, Chef Sharone, and their team are all easy to work with and clearly passionate about what they do. Their menus are always thoughtful and well composed, designed with each client in mind. Their presentation is always colorful, architectural, and stylish but without being stuffy or fussy. 5+ stars for sure. - Erica | Tinsel & Twine read more

I like their coffees,daily menus and CAKES! Poppy seed cake and tahini chocolate cake are my faves!!

We hired Poppy's to cater our wedding and it was incredible from start to finish. The food was delicious, the staff was professional and so accommodating. We were blown away by the experience and would recommend them to all couples in the area. read more

Poppy's catered our wedding about a year ago. Knowing what everyone had told me about weddings-- that you don't have time to eat-- we asked for a separate plates of meals to be prepared for us and provided in the room for our yihud-- the place a Jewish couple retires to for a short time after the ceremony before returning to their guests. This is very common for Jewish couples to do. We were in there for over 15 minutes before food was brought to us, and were anxious to rejoin the party but were waiting for food--but to my dismay it was only a plate of our passed appetizers, and not a plate of the dinner food. Also, the food was supposed to be waiting for us when we got there. We hadn't made plans for any other food to snack on because we counted on them to do this. Of course, during dinner, I didn't have time to eat because I had to go around greeting guests. I later became very sick from not eating enough. Everyone else tells me we had great food at our wedding but we didn't really get to eat it. We had counted on them to do this one thing. I can think of reasons why they did it this way--our meals were family style and it could have been difficult to make individual plates, maybe they hadn't made the food yet--but that's not really the issue here. The issue is that they agreed to do this, we expressed this plan to them in person and through our wedding planner, and no one ever raised any issues or told us this would be a problem or that it would be a tiny amount of food. If they had, we could have had other food waiting for us in that room, and I wouldn't have gotten sick later. I know this is a year later, but as I'm sitting as thinking about my wedding I am still frustrated and disappointed about how this went, so I think it's worth reviewing now. read more

I went to a recent event that Poppy's catered at Clare V. in Cobble Hill and it was outstanding. The food was beautifully presented and used fresh, seasonal ingredients. The crudité platter was the best I've seen - crisp slices of red and yellow peppers, juicy cherry tomatoes, grilled asparagus, and more. The various flatbreads, chips, salsas, and dips were all super tasty as well. I will definitely keep Poppy's in mind for future events! read more

My team has had very positive experiences with Poppy's Catering on more than one occasion. They offer interesting seasonal menus with a variety of extremely popular items and they are very flexible. On both occasions, they were able to accommodate special needs and improvise on the spot seamlessly when things didn't go exactly as planned. That is the mark of true professionalism. Poppy's always pleases and we look forward to the next opportunity to collaborate with them. read more

Poppy's goes from strength to strength. They produce great food with products in season. The best cakes in Cobble Hill! Wish they stayed open a bit later though read more

I used Poppy's for a department all day offsite meeting for 15 people where we had both breakfast and lunch catered. I couldn't have asked for better service from the Poppy's team; from the excellent budget maintenance and menu coordination by Margaret to the delivery team which set up the meals beautifully and labelled each dish. We had a variety of dietary restrictions and everyone was pleasantly surprised by the delicious food! As a person that has coordinated a few events, catering has always been the part i loathed but with Poppy's i said the exact number we were having and the restrictions we had in terms of budget and diet and Poppy's took care of the rest. It was the most pain free catering experience i have ever had and their food was delicious to boot! Highly recommend. read more

I worked with Jamie + the Poppy's team for an event last month and they are just perfection! Jamie is extremely organized and fast to return emails. Their presentation is natural and simply chic; always keeping their client's aesthetic in mind. I would highly recommend Poppy's! read more

Poppy's is one of my favorite places since I moved to the neighborhood and a must to visit every weekend. Love the food (try the scones or the biscuit egg sandwich), staff is always lovely. read more

The most wonderful and friendly staff, so pleasant to work with. Beautiful, colorful presentations. Delicious, inspiring, elegant yet approachable, wholesome food with seasonal ingredients. Love Poppy's! read more

If you are thinking about ordering from Poppy's, you absolutely should!! Not only are the sales associates wonderful in helping you chose the right menu, the food is absolutely incredible. My office has now ordered Poppy's twice and everyone can't stop raving about the food! Every detail, from the finely chosen ingredients in each dish to the display is thought out. I truly can't recommend this catering company more. I'm so glad that we found them and look forward to continuing our partnership with them in the future! read more

Poppy's catered our wedding reception, and they were wonderful--super responsive and flexible, delicious food, and very professional staff. They made a beautiful farmstand table that our guests raved about, worked within our budget, and went above and beyond to make it an unforgettable day. read more

#Strong. We hired Poppy's for an innovation lunch with startups at Brooklyn Fashion + Design Accelerator. Food was delicious and healthy, service was on time, budget was fairly priced. Thanks y'all! read more

They did a fantastic job catering our business meeting at NYU. Delicious and right on time!

Nothing in this storefront has ever lasted. Oh my god, Poppy's - please stick around!!! For a long time they only did catering out of the shop, so didn't get to experience their food - but then one glorious Saturday they set up a sandwich board and announced they were doing a "pop up" shop that weekend. It has grown and grown since then. They continue to only do service from 9 to 3 on weekends, but the neighborhood has really caught on and people flock there - and they almost always sell out of almost everything by mid-day. All of the baked goods are insanely good. I can't even manage to declare a favorite. The biscuits are gigantic and a flaky, buttery orgasmic biscuit experience. The chocolate chip cookies are crisp on the edges, chewy at the center and salty, sweet and packed with dark chocolate. The cardamom pecan coffeecake is moist and rich and packed full of crunchy, sweet streusel topping. Okay, my favorite might be the lemon poppy semolina poundcake - I love citrus baked goods the most, and this delivers on all fronts - moist, dense, super lemony. Scones change from weekend to weekend but they are always interesting combinations and delicious. The egg sandwich is decadent and amazing - a cheddar baked egg on one of those orgasm inducing biscuits - topped with bacon JAM and pea sprouts. I mean, come on... My only complaint is that I am hooked. There is no hope of planning for a cheaper or more healthy breakfast at home on the weekend - I will be on line down the block getting my baked good fix. read more
