Breadbox Cafe

Good place for brunch, has outdoor seating which in rare in the neighborhood.

The shaksouka was new to me and a very pleasant surprise! Everything else looked good that came out if the kitchen and the staff were very nice. Looking forward to coming back!

I was in LIC last week and I needed to coffee and eat something light in the morning . I stopped Breadbox cafe because it was on my way. I wish I didn't. Service was horrible, waiter was just so rude. I ordered black coffee, taste was horrible and not even hot enough. Also I ordered chocolate Croissant wasn't even fresh probably from yesterday or day before. When I asked waiter about that , he said "Yes pastry just made this morning" And I didn't believe a word. Very low quality food business. Disrespectful customer service and non professional attitude towards customer. Think twice before you go there and don't waste your time and your money ,It's not worth it.

Breadbox Cafe is in the middle of nowhere in Long Island City. But it is a good thing because it has its own parking lot and plenty of outside seating space. It is perfect for brunch and good for children.

We were here with another couple and we parked two strollers there without any issue. The menu contains good brunch dishes as well as sandwiches and burgers. I tried their Shashouka, which is a Israeli (I think?) poached egg dish in some spicy tomato sauce and it comes with some nice grains and pita bread. It is very very good and the portion is generous.

My husband tried their salmon benedict and it is also truly delicious and they don't skim on the lox!

We will for sure return for more weekend meals here.

Friendly staff, good service and a great brunch. We were tired after walking from east harlem, and having a coffee + brunch here was one of the greatest ideas we had during the whole day.

Tack så mycket!
