    I’ve been wanting to try this place for awhile, and I finally got the chance to today! There was a line out the door, but it went so fast!!! I was so impressed by the swift service. I tried their breakfast sandwich (added bacon). It was absolutely scrumptious!!!!!! I also had to try their pastries. I got the almond cake and chocolate cake. The chocolate was good, however, the almond cake is a MUST. I can’t wait to come back! I would love to try their lunch menu and/or their rotisserie chicken.

    I’ve only gotten the sandwiches, but they’re all delicious and filling. The rotisserie chicken sandwich is probably their most popular and it’s most like a chicken salad sandwich, but really packed with slices of chicken. The avocado with cheddar and ricotta broccoli are both great vegetarian options. They have some great baked good options if you go in person; unfortunately they’re never there when you order to go.

    I went in there for the first time to grab breakfast and was excited to try them out since their Google reviews are great... but I was only disappointed in my breakfast. I ordered a bacon egg and cheese with avocado (two: one for myself and one for my husband) and two hot chocolates: needless to say the bacon egg and cheese was a disappointment. The bacon was undercooked and all you get is literally one strip of bacon. I paid around $40 and it was NOT worth it at all. The hot chocolate was alright but definitely not worth the price... it was not hot but warm... I called the order over the phone so I don't know what the service is like but when I walked in I did not feel welcomed. As far as the ambiance... it seemed chill when I walked in but again not too sure because I picked up and left.

    Sandwich was delicious and service was good! I got the Veggie Avocado and Cheese and it was the perfect veg sandwich, the caper mayo made it - more flavorful than a regular veggie sandwich. Would recommend!!

    Had the fried broccoli sandwich which is super filling and a solid comfort food. It's got cheese so is not vegan. The sandwich is nicely seasoned with spice and definitely has tons of broccoli. Probably would be an ideal sharing item for two if not too hungry. The only downside is it's super greasy.

    I had stopped by after a long, long day. It had been several years since I last visited. I was greeted in a warm manner by a beautiful young man. I placed my order for take-out, but when the option was presented to stay or take-out, I smiled and opted to dine in. The meal was delicious. It was served hot and FRESHLY made. I treated myself to a slice of Carrot Cake, and it was delicious. The vibe of the restaurant was calm. Not too much noise or rumpus traffic. And, that was a relief and a welcome. To the entire staff, thank you kindly. I regret not knowing the associate at the counter that took my order. Nonetheless, he was gracious and a great representative of the restaurant. Thank you again...

    I like that this place opens early and closes at 9pm. The sandwiches are excellent (I particularly love the Broccoli & Ricotta and the Pulled Pork) although they are super greasy indeed. There are many seats at the small or communal tables and the outdoor terrace. Coffees are not too expensive. I tried the oatmeal once, it was not to my taste unfortunately (watery). Overall a great place!

    Simple, clean food that has a lot of flavor and is filling. Kale salad with chicken is $16, and is big enough for two people. The meatball and pulled pork are also a couple of go to items my wife and I get.

    Love the rotisserie chicken sandwich at Lincoln Station. The chicken is always very tender, the mayo is subtle (in a good way) and touches of of parsley, cellery, and capers is perfect. Great for lunch at the park!

    So glad we found this local gem after a visit to the Brooklyn Botanic Garden! The food is mouthwatering and the prices are right! My wife loved the avocado sandwich, I loved the chicken sandwich and my son said he had the best pulled pork sandwich ever! Also the raspberry shortbread was delicious! We already came back once and I’m sure we’ll be back many more times with friends!

    Spacious cafe with kombucha on tap! However I needed a slight dose of caffeine so got the iced matcha latte. Great vibes and a nice stop before heading to the botanic garden

    Cute place with ample outdoor seating and decent espresso. Their yogurt granola parfait is also quite fresh and good. They currently do not have indoor seating. They don't have wi-fi on weekends, which was unfortunate as I went there to try to get a coffee + get some work done on my laptop.

    Atmosphere is great, food is decent. I ordered an egg sandwich with bacon well done. The bacon wasn’t well done and the sandwich was greasy. That was a turn down for me. I also ordered the avocado and egg sandwich which came on a multigrain bun. Not impressed, but good enough. The place got packed at around 10am (Sunday) there are plenty seats inside and outside. The place has a restaurant/casual bar vibe. Family friendly, as I saw couples with strollers.

    At first I was nervous by the limited selection but boy do they know what they’re doing. I ordered the broccoli ricotta sandwich out of curiosity and it was game changing. Lemony, sweet and spicy with just the right amount of crunch. They also have fried broccoli as a side and if it’s prepared the same way that may become a new weekly staple. You can order meatballs as well- one for 3.50. They have a soup of the day that looked delicious. Will have to return for more.

    Stopped in on a hot afternoon after visiting the botanic garden. The watermelon agua fresca was the most refreshing drink I’ve had in a long time. Great low-key atmosphere with seating inside and out. Will be back to try their food!

  • 4/5 Peter M. 11 months ago on Google
    Nice place for coffee and lunch. Food is tasty and prepared quickly. Close to Brooklyn Museum and Botanical Garden. This must have horrified Brooklyn residents: on a recent Sunday they had run out of kombucha and oat milk.

  • 5/5 Raquel W. 1 year ago on Google
    Amazing 1/2 chicken with potatoes and fried broccoli. Good value since it was two meals for me. Quick for takeout and pleasant environment in which to wait for takeout or eat. The menu is not extensive, but I'd try some other dishes if I get the chance to go back.

    A neighborhood favorite, the egg sandwich is so simple with its egg and cheese, but the bread and the eggs are always cooked perfectly. Roll is consistently so soft. $7 with tax and tip but it’s a nice treat. I’ve tried all the others in the area like Lulu Bagel, Colina Cuervo but they don’t compare. Some indoor high chairs and a few tables outside. Seems like a popular date spot or casual hangout with friends.

    I first rated this place 3 years ago, but never wrote a review. The time has finally come though considering that I'm a regular patron. First off, this is one of the few late night cafes -- they stay open until 9 pm! Secondly, it's a super spacious no frills environment with prompt service and outlets a plenty, indoor and outdoor seating. Frequently come here to post up when I need to crank out some work late nights. Also wonderful egg and avocado sandwich, would prob consume this everyday if I had enough discretionary funds haha. 😂

  • 5/5 Jaren F. 4 months ago on Google
    By far my favorite coffee shop in Brooklyn. Space, direct sunlight, affordable and delicious meals, and generous looseleaf tea servings with hot water refills. I come here a few times a week with friends, it’s heaven.

  • 5/5 Kate S. 1 year ago on Google
    Their egg sandwich is one of the best one I've had. Their coffee is delicious too. There's typically a little line, but everything moves fast, and I've never had an issue finding a seat.

  • 5/5 Ernesto A. 1 year ago on Google
    Great selection of coffee, alcohol, and food. Very affordable too, nice and accommodating staff, lots of seating, found the place thanks to Google reviews and it didn't disappoint! Would come back anytime I'm in the area to work and relax and eat in their lovely indoor or outdoor space

  • 5/5 Lauren N. 2 years ago on Google
    I love Lincoln Station! The best coffee and lattes (strong and tasty). Amazing breakfast sandwich and kale salad. A bit of a limited selection on foods, but it is made with quality ingredients and the service team are all lovely people!

  • 5/5 Amy T. 2 years ago on Google
    I have been going to Lincoln Station for the past four years and when I move I’ll miss this place! The avocado egg sandwich is one of my favorites and the coffee, staff, and rest of the menu are just as great.

  • 5/5 Greer H. 2 years ago on Google
    Awesome cafe right near the park/Bk botanical gardens. Their broccoli ricotta sandwich, with pine nuts and raisins, was one of the all time best sandwiches & the rotisserie chicken sandwich was delicious as well. Will be back!

  • 3/5 Shaima A. 3 years ago on Google
    I've tried their matcha almond latte. It wasn't that much good because who made the drink didn't mix the match powder well . Beside that the egg sandwich was great!!!

  • 4/5 Aiya K. 2 years ago on Google
    Great coffee shop, with outdoor seating and a nice choice of food. My only issue with it is they don’t let you use their restroom. Drinking all that coffee and tea and not being able to go to the restroom? The only reason I stopped coming. Other than that it would be the best in the area.

  • 5/5 sakinah s. 2 years ago on Google
    I had the egg sandwich with avocado added to it, and it was AMAZING! The roll was flaky and buttery, the eggs cooked just right, the avocado gave an additional twist on a classic sandwich. The coffee I had along with breakfast, was PERFECT. Milk/sugar/etc are on the side so u can customize. Also, try the Fentimans Rose Lemonade, you will thank me later!

  • 2/5 Kitchen I. 1 year ago on Google
    Once fresh bread seems to be an epidemic disease in this city. Here, like many places I visit, fresh seems to be the acceptable past tense of fresh. Your $11 plus plus salad sandwich is perfectly OK, but for the bread that seems to have been frozen about 18 hours after baking, then defrosted. It gets way better with the chicken soup which is the best use of past tense roasters I've ever had. The $8 chocolate cake is a disaster akin to the fall of Rome (aka 2022 nyc). The cocoa colour is just that, with a chemical fake chocolate flavour that is pure pre mix...I wish I had some soup left to remove that fission style decay of my palate. But the soup is great...

    Good coffee spot. Decent prices. We had brownies and poppy seeds cake. My kids loved it.

  • 4/5 Tracey J. 1 year ago on Google
    The space was nice - not the friendliest staff - kind of felt like I was bothering them- the fries and broccoli sandwich were delicious as was the pork sandwich and burgers were good- avocado sandwich was delicious. I think the options were great to meet all the tastes of the group. 4 minute walk from the botanical gardens washington entrance which was awesome.

  • 5/5 Molly B. 1 year ago on Google
    I LOVE IT!! Great sandwiches and super friendly staff! I spent the day here working on my laptop - nice indoor and outdoor seating areas (with outlets inside). Restroom is small but tidy. Se habla español :)

  • 4/5 V L. 1 year ago on Google
    This is a great spot for working or meeting up with folks. I’ve come here multiple times to have quick chats with collaborators on the large central table. I’ve not had their food but the coffee and pastries are great.

  • 5/5 Egor A. 1 year ago on Google
    Love this place! The best tasting coffee in town. Friendly personal and delicious food. Cozy, clean, only good vibes from this place. Definitely recommend to visit and try their coffee and any sandwich you choose, promise you will enjoy.

  • 4/5 Tiffany R. 1 year ago on Google
    Hopped in for a quick lunch while visiting a friend. While I won't say it's the best sandwich I've ever had (we all have that one experience no sandwich will ever top...mine was in Barcelona), it was unique and substantial which I really really appreciated! Service was quick and the staff was nice!

    I was there for a business trip. I stopped by Brooklyn to check out this cute cafe! The sandwiches and drinks are amazing. I will come back only this time for pleasure, not business.

  • 5/5 Wyatt M. 1 year ago on Google
    One of my favorite iced coffees in nyc and amazing pastries which is super hard to find. The food is STUNNING. The rotisserie chicken sandwich or the eggs sandwich will change you

  • 4/5 Elizabeth Lazarre K. 2 months ago on Google • 1 review New
    awesome, go-to spot to do computer work in the area -- good food and great vibes. only thing has been some cold issues in the winter. I know they're replacing heating system now tho! (would also def recommend some way minimizing air flow , since door is opening all the time ... maybe a curtain, or even just fixing the door so it closes quickly. as it is, it's a slow shut every few minutes, letting a lot of cold air in.)
