What People Are Saying
from Google & Yelp"I had an amazing experience at Cousin John’s Café & Bakery in Brooklyn. We ordered the pancetta eggs Benedict, and it was outstanding. the pancetta was perfectly cooked and wonderfully savory. We also tried the fresh squeezed orange juice, which was refreshing, and the ideal compliment to the meal. The service was surprisingly impressive. The staff was attentive and kind, bringing water right away and offering complimentary chocolate raisin bread with cranberry jam (available only on Sat/Sun 9am–3pm), which was such a thoughtful and delicious fall touch. The bakery section is incredible. They offer everything from cakes and tarts to cannolis made to order, crème brûlée, crumb cake, mini key lime pies, lobster-tail pastries and everything looked absolutely amazing and high quality. All in all, Cousin John’s delivers excellent food, exceptional service, and an impressive bakery selection. Highly recommended I’ll definitely be back!"

"Solid slot for pastries and treats, esp like that they are open late and have a nice seating area inside. Service was fast and I really liked the plum and almond flavors inside, would enjoy again!"
"I got a lot of things and they all taste 3 days old, stale, hard as a rock and are too expensive for the quality. Specially the pistachio lobster tail. Would never go back."
"Great café! The food is awesome, the prices are very fair, there is a wide variety of selections and the staff is very helpful. The interior is comfortable but not cramped, warm but not boiling, and they serve very fresh meals and treats. I have been going there for. along time and have not had a bad experience. It is busy in that you will definitely not be the only person there, but since it is a large space you will have a place to sit inside or outside. You can seat yourself which is nice, it is a very efficient experience (but you are not rushed), and everything is very clean. Smells great inside and outside, too!"
