Phone: 718-852-1162
Cuisine: Diner/American
Hours: 7am – 11pm
This new diner replaced the old Donut Shop (which funny enough didn’t sell donuts!) on Court Street in Cobble Hill. It has quickly become our go-to place for a family brunch on weekend mornings. Unlike many of the brunch restaurants in the area, this place is open at the crack of dawn which suits our early rising kids. The food is good and includes all the diner standards (like the pancakes which my preschooler son can inhale an entire order on his own!). The wait staff always makes a fuss over the kids. The only catch is the size. Only two of the tables in the restaurant work well for families. However, we have never had a problem getting one of them. I would recommend bringing a folding stroller if you bring one at all due to limited stroller parking.

Founders Ben Hoen and Matt Pisciotta have updated the kids’ menu at their lively, family-packed diner: Little ones will clamor for new Mini Mees (tiny versions of sirloin, turkey or veggie burgers), Peter au Pain (French toast stuffed with Nutella) and Rice Krispies–topped mac and cheese. The popular weekend brunch commands a wait, but deservedly so: The Eggs Ben-a-Dizz (eggs Benedict with a kicky lime Hollandaise) and a stellar huevos rancheros ensure that parents are as sated as their tots.- Time Out Kids

Our family has gone only on Saturday and Sunday mornings and all three times it has been very quiet. You enter through the front door which is Wonka-like with three sized openings: one of adults, one for children and one for tiny tiny chickens or teacup dogs.  (SEE PHOTO) The kids get a complete kick out of it. Upon entering, you encounter a series of handles, knobs, cranks and slots- your first clue that this was a former hardware store. The kids love all the hardware and pipes that they can twist and feel.  The rest of the decor is equally unusual: maps, globes, trunks, exotic prints, animal images and flat screens with BBC’s “Blue Planet” and old Bugs Bunny cartoons playing. Everything about this place harkens back to times where exploration was full of wonder and travel was an adventure, not an annoyance. It is equally fun for adults and children to examine the pictures and foreign objects.You order your food downstairs at a cafeteria-type area that I’m not crazy about. It is in discordance with the considered downstairs decor.  However, the breakfast fare is fine: I have ordered both oatmeal, pancakes and eggs and have been satisfied with it all.  They give you a number and you walk upstairs to even more seating. Upstairs is the best.It is warm with yellow painted walls, wooden floors and colorful lamps suspended from the ceiling. There is a separate activity room in the back that has a nice-sized table with paper, crayons and markers. There are dollhouses, trunks full of paper bricks and tubs of sea animals, trucks and legos. It is all neatly kept and organized. Upstairs the adults can eat and keep an eye on their children playing. It makes for one of the most restful eating experiences I have had with children and other families. Part of it is due to the fact that the environment is calm and the children don’t seem to grab each other’s toys since there are so many available. Most of it is due to the helpers who are stationed in the activity room. They play with your child, help them turn on the computers and find appropriate material for them, locate books of interest for your child and just be a sitter for a bit. Yesterday the owner, Nate, spent a lot of time playing with me and Birch. It was nice to have a foil to play with and he was genuinely interested in helping the kids find the right toys to furnish their imagination.
