Go during February for pancake month. Raspberry + chocolate with chocolate and caramel sauce are sinful.
Giani PfisterSeptember 2, 2015
Benedict eggs it is so delicious
Ian LitovichApril 4, 2013
Probably the best pancakes I've ever had! If you go, it's a must order no doubt.
MhmtaliMay 30, 2013
I don't care if you get the beloved blueberry pancakes or not, but the must have here is the SUGAR-CURED BACON!
VivianApril 3, 2013
Converted me to a Malt Shake fan! Must try: vanilla classic thick shake! I will always order this there.
James CubbonJuly 25, 2014
I'm from Melbourne, so I know about breakfast. However upon my arrival at Clinton St Baking I realized shit just got real. Woah.
ZehavitDecember 13, 2013
The Banana Walnut Pancakes and the Clinton St Omelette were amazing; A must try!!!!
Jari MäkeläOctober 6, 2015
Their sugar cured bacon is the best bacon around but it becomes crazy insane if you dip it to the maple cyrup and butter mix that comes with the blueberry pancakes.
RachelNovember 21, 2011
Amazing breakfast food. If you go later in the day, it's less crowded. And definitely order the sugar-cured bacon!
MeshaDecember 2, 2016
Everything is good..
Denis SosnovtsevFebruary 18, 2015
The best brunch I've ever had. #1 for a reason. Get a blueberry pancakes for the table so everyone can try it, then explore as much of the menu as you can. Pictured: cheesy grits, Spanish scramble.
Josef SzottenFebruary 6, 2016
Gotta have the blueberry pancakes. Also try a biscuit - they're good.
💫De'rick💫June 11, 2013
I absolutely LOVE this restaurant!!! There is NO breakfast like the breakfast HERE!!!! #FATBOYTHOUGHTS!!!
Eric ChungDecember 7, 2010
Just from the name, who would have thought they have the best brunch. One of the longest lines that I had to wait not in NYC but in the world that I've been to.
ChrystopherApril 21, 2013
Been here 5+ times
I never use syrup on the pancakes cuz its just that damn good!!!! The maple butter is like CRACK.
JnrlStrMay 28, 2012
Chicken Waffles in 2 hours. The wait is insane for brunch, trying coming later in the afternoon to walk right in.
KsAccessorizeNovember 1, 2015
Cosy place! Amazing pancakes
Helen HoldunOctober 3, 2016

Vivienne GucwaAugust 10, 2014
Their omelets are really good! Also, their biscuits are amazing.
Al MoMay 25, 2016
Double smoked bacon is the way to go, if you like pork.
Mikala McCauleyAugust 31, 2018
PLAIN PANCAKES and the maple butter. Don’t even bother with toppings... it’s delicious.
Doris HuMay 14, 2015
Delicious? Yes. Worth the 3 hour wait? I don't think any restaurant is.
Club MonacoMay 16, 2011
So worthy of Best Brunch title, and home to beloved blueberry pancakes. There's also to-die-for brioche french toast.
Rachel MonctonJanuary 24, 2016
Maple butter that comes with the pancakes is amazing!
Pat C.September 14, 2016
Chicken n waffle is a bit dry. But the Spanish scramble is ace 👌🏼
Marq RomeroFebruary 22, 2011
Get the tomato fennel soup and the bacon duck goat cheese pizza. Then dip that pizza in the soup! Main course is pancakes!
Nikki SyliantengOctober 31, 2014
The hot apple cider is like an apple pie in a cup.
Kelli MearsMay 10, 2013
The sugar cured bacon. The raspberry jam. Eat them. You'll be so freaking happy you did.
Helen ChaoFebruary 5, 2017
The wait is an hour. Food is amazing.
Heath TerryApril 17, 2011

Pass the 2 hour wait by bringing the Times, getting coffee and a scone, and watching the staff at the empty coffee place across the street wonder what they're doing wrong.
Khalifa Al FalasiAugust 22, 2014
Went to compare the service between both US & Dubai branches , sorry NY we set high standards 😉
Jim CarusoNovember 19, 2022
Blueberry pancakes, latke salmon, Spanish scramble
Aline ChirinianJuly 4, 2015
The best breakfast I've ever had in my life! 😍
Aly OradyDecember 28, 2014
As a person that doesn't like pancakes, I can tell you the blueberry pancakes here are exceptional.
Nazli OguzJanuary 31, 2016
You have to be ready to wait for 2 hours, but pancakes are really good.
Hailey NguyenNovember 26, 2016
Best pancake I've ever had!
Tatiana MargaridoApril 14, 2014
you must go when in NY!!! just perfect!!! <3
Alec DadismanFebruary 14, 2016
Grab coffee across the street while waiting. Once we got a text to be seated we still had to wait 10-15 additional mins for a table. Get the blueberry pancakes & sugar cured bacon. Worth the wait!
ℳ𝒶𝓎♍July 24, 2016
Clinton Street Baking Company had long remained at the top of my New York food adventures list. When you think brunch in NYC you think Clinton Street. The wait is totally worth it
Moussa KhedimellahAugust 26, 2013
One of the best cheap place in NYC for ur breakfast or coffee time. Famous pankaces
Steven KornblitJune 18, 2016
Blueberry Pancakes...worth the trip
Mommy ShortsJanuary 2, 2011
The wait for the weekend brunch is too long for a kid, but if you can swing it, go for lunch on a weekday. Their famous pancakes are served at all hours. Banana is best.
Ashley SladekFebruary 23, 2013
The hidden gem here is the delicious sugar cured bacon! It's a must-have, trust me :]
Valentin GuerinJuly 2, 2015

Try everything, and don't forget the sugar coated bacon!!
Masayuki YoshikawaDecember 27, 2013
Try the Eggs Benedict - YUMMMMYYY!!!! :D Especially Biscuit part was so good!
AlexFebruary 26, 2015
I liked the blueberry pancakes a lot and the atmosphere was nice. But overall the experience felt a little overpriced and too much of a crowd.
BettieApril 8, 2013
The french toast here was amazing, and this is coming from someone who normally HATES it.
Lauren OosterlinckMay 7, 2010
grits and pancakes are perfection. buut don't ask for extra syrup - they don't give you enough in the first place - lest you're prepared to pay an additional 2 bucks! shakes aren't the best-still love
ARTURO PARRAAugust 20, 2021
Strawberry pankakes
Ivy TangSeptember 9, 2014
