Dinner is the move here. Get the mussels, chicken and the burger – we left happy and full. Service was very attentive and is dog friendly for outdoor seating. If you come in the morning, stop next door at Petite Paulette for a coffee and baguette.

Went here with my mom and boyfriend for a midweek breakfast / brunch and it was nice. It was no frills, pretty straightforward. The coffee was intensely strong in a fun way and they also give you big mugs of it. Cafe Paulette does not shy away from sharing their fries with you. Cheese quantity is also not a worry. All in all everything was very yum.

Café Paulette is SO good, I just recently visited for the first time and their brunch is delicious! Their avocado toast + fries on the side is 10/10. The location is really lovely, they’re situated right by Fort Greene Park. The outdoor seating has great views of the park and they keep the outdoor seating warm during the transitional seasons. The atmosphere inside Café Paulette is so cute, too! The staff are also really kind and accommodating, this made our experience all the better! I will absolutely be back, I highly recommend this spot.

So freaking delicious. Service is *top notch* and everyone is jovial and friendly, not to mention prompt. The outdoor patio seating is heated and warmer than inside!

Loved my experience there. Enjoyed a glass of wine while getting to know more about a new friend. Then came back to escape the heat and drag out the time away from my desk. Had some great conversations inside with the bartender and other patrons. The outside table area was bustling, but inside it was calm and quiet enough to have a conversation without raising your voice. The low ceiling added intimacy to the quaint and simple pub like interior. I think the slightly discomforting quiet and great music selection creates an atmosphere where you want to chat with someone new. Speaking with and listening to a person we would never speak to otherwise, makes our world bigger. Café Paulette creates and supports the social connections that are critically vital to our wellbeing but absent in our communities these last few years.

Had a long wait for ordering and food came pretty late. It’s definitely a busy place with a lot of people so expect the slow service. Food was okay and price is Manhattan price. Not sure if I’d come back again. Had better brunch food with cheaper price in the neighborhood before. The plus is it’s easy to book reservation.
