Kelsey SmartDecember 25, 2012This is my go-to spot for post-work drinks, food, and a cozy hangout spot. The mussels are amazing. You'll want extra bread to soak up the yummy buttery juice. The Orchard Ocean is a great cocktail.
Mary Ann Dizon RementillaAugust 14, 2017Went here seeking healthy-ish brunch. Had the Kale salad and for extra $, topped it with smoked salmon, avocado and a side of hash browns👌. The watermelon basil non-boozey drink is refreshing. ❤️❤️
Charlotte FlynnJanuary 20, 2020Shrooms Benedict was amazing (runny egg yolks set off by fresh herbs, served with fresh greens). Good place to go before or after the Tenement Museum.
Same people as Ruby’s. Very Aussie menu. Loved the big brekkie.
Aditi LuthraMay 6, 2018Didn’t see a substantial eggless option so I got an avo toast w a side of mushrooms (w a delicious but mild seasoning, perfectly salted) & fries. Was more than full. Also mixed fresh grapefruit & OJ- Mike SingletonJanuary 22, 2015Fantastic brunch, not too crowded normally. The pancakes are just the right portion, and leaves room for a side of bacon.
- FreshNYC p}-:{>February 2, 2015Get the signature patty—pasted with chili mayo, smothered in melted Swiss in an ciabatta roll—or a homemade pasta like papperdelle with meat ragu or entreé, panfried fluke over creamed cauliflower. Read more
Great drinks and food. Friendly service. Good for any meal. You can't go wrong with the burger. What else do you expect from a place run by Australians?
Alexis BendjouiaDecember 5, 2015Great avo toast. Good vibes. Always a wait. Cozy. Tasty food at reasonable prices, one of my favorite brunch spots of all times.
Inès B.November 23, 2016Salads are amazing; food in general actually. The waiters are really nice. The place is beautiful, really cozy. And as for the prices totally acceptable. Would totally recommend it.
Josenny TorresSeptember 13, 2015Crispy rice salad is amazing. It is very light and tasty. The fries are so delicious. Shoe string fries but so crispy. And the Brossulle sprouts are just made to perfection
Bin YangDecember 2, 2014Grab a seat, a big breakie (for brunch or breakfast) and people watch! At night, enjoy some fresh dishes and if in doubt you can always revert to the bronte burger. Chili mayo always wins!
This is my go to place for a quick pick up food for dinner or lunch. The Gem lettuce, Cauliflower salad, kale salad or butternut squash salad are always great.
Ina LiOctober 31, 2015Hearty breakfast with house made smoothie. Recommend: chai pudding, big breakie, brown rice, cucumber ginger smoothie.
AlexAugust 17, 2016ok but the chicken schnitzel salad rocked my afternoon. the big brekkie is great and so are their shakes — watermelon & basil is so refreshing.
Get a small side salad of whatever mix of vegetable dishes they have out front st the deli—they really squeeze them in, so it’s a great deal and delicious!
Elika Real EstateJanuary 5, 2020Beautiful space, great for anytime of the day. Excellent salads, breakfast and a killer schnitzel.
Max KesslerAugust 21, 2014Boss spot for brunch. Must get the Avocado Toast and the Oatmeal (and add a fried banana on the side). + 2 cups of their bang bang coffee and your good to go!
ᴡ ElliotJune 10, 2015Great group spot, ask for the table downstairs. It seats up to 15 or so. The Brussels sprouts dish is phenomenal
Ruby AnayaJanuary 11, 2019Best BLT I’ve had in a long time. Hot cakes were great too - they serve breakfast till 3pm.
Bridget WoznicaMarch 23, 2017Disappointed that there was no Australian wine or beer on the menu at this Australian restaurant, but the burger was one of the best I've ever had! Cute space as well.
Amy ChenJanuary 14, 2016Australian burgers are my absolute favorite. Pineapples and beets belong in burgers. Follow my Foodstagram @foodaholic_anonymous
- Joe DJanuary 10, 2015The Bronte burger, not named after the author herself, is phenomenal. They must be including some honey glaze which is exceptional. Either way, get das burger!
Angela ChungSeptember 9, 2018One of my top fave places for ricotta pancakes! It comes with honeycomb butter OMG.
WhitneyNovember 26, 2017Definitely get the Bronte Burger with a side of fries. There can be a long wait during brunch but they text you when your table is ready.
Melissa YuApril 26, 2015Entourage of avocado toast, chicken schnitzel salad and fries w/ truffle aioli. All worth the 45 minute wait.
Lili BazJune 18, 2019Burger and fries! The crispy rice is different and delicious! Very cute restaurant inside. Expect a long wait on the weekends
Emilie FuttermanFebruary 27, 2015Amazing food, brunch and dinner. Waiters are super friendly. There's a room downstairs that can privately seat about a dozen people.
Aussie style brunch! Smashed avocado on toast is always good. Nice vibe to the place as well - chill in summer, cozy in winter.
Michael G.February 4, 2022Major noms! The chicken schnitzel was outstanding. Great outdoor dining set up - preferable to indoors where you sit on top of other tables
David DiGregorioNovember 4, 2014I sort of enjoy the cocktails here. They give you a giant ice sphere, know how to add vermouth nicely, but are a little stingy with the main spirit.
Jacob ForsterJuly 3, 2015Extremely nice and friendly staff with a great atmosphere. Plus the Dudley burger is so juicy and delicious. Get it without hesitation.
ThomJanuary 8, 2020Nice atmosphere and great service - get the DUDLEYS CHOP SALAD and some dry white wine for a perfect light dinner.
Stewart CampbellAugust 13, 2018Burgers and beer. Prices are a little high tho. Staff and clientele are fun
Afi Yellow-DukeSeptember 20, 2015inexpensive Aussie brunch here! we sat outside and managed to fit 6 people to those small tables. but it was cute, and the avocado toast was delicious!
Everything in here is great. Bronte burger is very tasty. Nice atmosphere and friendly staff. Good for dinner and lunch.- Michael TyznikDecember 20, 2014The burrata with pistachio and citrus and the chicken schnitzel were both awesome. Drinks were great too.
Monti BrayJanuary 27, 2015Cute cozy restaurant. Breakfast is delish! Banana nut bread and oatmeal is a win win.
Jared HaversonDecember 22, 2013For brunch, some of the best pancakes I've ever had. And I mean ever. That's serious from someone who's eaten a shit ton of pancakes in their day
The Bronte burger is my favorite burger in NYC. The cocktails are sensational.
Susan ZJune 8, 2014amazing food/drinks and service!! came for dinner and got the shrimp fettuccine, hanger steak and the banofee pie. 😍
Kelsey✨June 19, 2024pretty busy for brunch but try and snag a table outside for excellent people watching
Eunice KimDecember 29, 2015Chicken schnitzel salad was amazing. Ordered a flat white too which was pretty standard
agnes chanMarch 9, 2013Come for brunch. Big windows to let in that sun, counterculture coffee, good music. New spot, so no wait and no crazy crowd (yet)
Stellar brunch soundtrack. Also the avocado toast and egg sandwich are both solid. Good coffee. Bloody Mary just ok. Service super friendly but absent.
