    Jersey Boy (sausage, egg, and cheese)
    Katy C.

    I honestly don't frequent this area of downtown that much but had some spare time before a class recently so I stopped in to Brooklyn Bodega for a light bite. The menu includes breakfast items and sandwiches/wraps made to order. This is pretty much a takeout only spot, they have a few stools and a bar rail but I'd recommend taking your food to go. I ordered the Jersey Boy (sausage, egg, and cheese) on an asiago bagel as I had heard their bagels were really good. I am honestly not the world's biggest bagel fan, especially when it comes to breakfast sandwiches, but I really liked this bagel sandwich. The bagel was cheesy flavored and soft to bite. The egg was so fluffy and steaming hot, yet not overcooked at all. A classic breakfast staple, so well done. I'd love to come back for a sub for lunch. They are only open til 3 most days so be sure to add it to your list of lunch spots.

    First of all, the owner was so kind and friendly. I was happy to patron this place because of the welcoming environment, the tips and tricks for building a delicious bagel sandwich that hit the spot before work. For $10 I got a Asiago bagel with egg, cheese, onion and tomato with some cream cheese. It hit the spot. Service was quick. They have a cash discount. I appreciate the friendly environment and can do attitude. I hope this place is successful!

    So good I had to double back. I got the bacon egg and cheese on a garlic bagel. The food was fresh, the bagel was one of the best I've had in the city. Upon arrival I was met with a genuine greeting. Will definitely be coming returning !

    I got there right when it opened and honestly it took them a while to get me my bagel but it was definitely worth it. I ordered the Jersey Boy on an Asiago bagel, added the jalapeño cream cheese.. it was amazing. I will have to go back and get that again!

    I am a bread girl and I LOVED the bread on this sub! It was perfectly toasted on the inside and soft and fluffy on the outside. The portion was huge as you can see in this photo, I was so full from just half of this sub but couldn't resist and ate the whole thing. The service was quick and friendly. I'll definitely be back to try some more items!

    Great addition to the corner of Jefferson and Fulton! The owners instantly greeted me and walked me through their menu and made some suggestions. I opted for the Jersey Boy breakfast sandwich which is sausage, egg, and cheese on any bagel I pick, so I went with an everything bagel. The owner mentioned I could make it a combo to include a drink and potatoes, which I did! Everything was made fresh right in front of me and within 5min, I was walking out with a delicious breakfast. The portions were large/fair for the price and they had a ton of drinks to pick from. I wish they had some juice options for breakfast but I still found something I liked. I'm excited to have another option nearby and to try some of their other options. They sell their breakfast menu all day as well! Give these guys a shot.

    The Brooklyn Boy

    Was in town over the weekend djing a wedding. Some friends of mine from New York who were also in town came to eat lunch and mannnnn the food was so great. I ordered the Brooklyn Boy sandwich (ham egg + cheese) and I got it on a honey oat bagel. We also split the chopped cheese, which, I was thinking about all day. Got to meet the owner and his super nice family who made the sandwiches. I had to drive back on Sunday and was sad that I couldn't get a chopped cheese to go on the way back to Chicago. I'm posting this on a Tuesday and I'm still thinking about the Chopped Cheese from Saturday. It's only a three hour drive, I might just drive back up for the day to get a couple. Please go support this black owned small business. I promise it's worth it.

    Bagel with sausage, egg and cheese on the top bagel!

    These are some of the best bagels I've ever had. They were fluffy, crunchy and not too thick to overwhelm the rest of the sandwich. My husband and I got a sausage, egg and cheese sandwiches that hit the spot and were somehow juicy for breakfast sandwich? I don't know how they did it but so yummy, would recommend!!

    We love breakfast sandwiches and there are not a ton of places with unique and super delicious ones in town. The downtown location is tough for us to get to unfortunately but we finally made it for take out on a Sunday morning. Everything was ready on time. I had a breakfast sandwich with bacon, egg, and cheese. It was so good! The bagel was awesome and it was cheesey and gooey. The potatoes were also excellent. I hope to make it down here more often!

I adore crab so ordering that was a no brainer. Their coffee is strong. It took a ton of cream to change the color... though it was delicious with free refills for $5. The omelette was heaven. All the flavors melded well and I appreciated the crisp acidic salad to cut the richness of the omelette. My only critique is wishing the crab salad topping was a bit more decadent. For $21 I was hoping for big lumps of crab rather than cool shredded mayo based salad. All in all, I love this place, I love the concept. It was quite busy and was thankful to snag a seat at the bar. The service was friendly and quick. Best hipster establishment I've patronized in a long time. Make a reservation if you have a group or pray there is a seat at the bar.

My boyfriend and I stumbled in during happy hour and were happy to grab some cheap drinks, but the main event was the burger! We typically like sitting at the bar as well and chat with the bartender who was absolutely lovely! The dirty martini was okay but I will definitely order something else next time as the olives just didn't hit for me. It's a quaint and quiet spot - you can read that as intimate - since it's not loud or rowdy, so if you want a really sweet date spot, feel free to check this one out! Otherwise, you can just go and have a casual, delicious dinner. Parking is limited with the street parking and it being so close to Monroe Center but you shouldn't have a terrible time finding something, even if requires a parking ramp vs street parking. I'd just recommend a reservation if you are going on a weekend or don't want to wait/sit at the bar!

It was a 45 minute wait today but my friend and I found seats at the bar and got coffee while we waited and we were able to order our food shortly after. Our waiter, Drew, was amazing and knew my friend from being a regular. He checked in on us frequently and made sure our coffee was full while we waited on the food. Since they were pretty slammed, our food took some time to come out but it was worth the wait. I tried the Jamaican jerk chicken frittata that my friend recommended and the spread was beautiful and it was delicious. If you like sweet and savory, this is the perfect dish with chicken and veggies in jerk sauce on top of frittata eggs topped with cheese and pineapple. Yum! The portion size covered the whole plate so I have leftovers for tomorrow! My friend got the steak and eggs and her gf got the hash Benedict. They both have been here before and I see why they went back. I will also be back soon! Other things to note is they have a shared parking lot so this is helpful if you don't want to do street parking. Also I would describe the ambiance as a higher-end diner with great service!

Honestly it was an incredible location for a space and had such a great vibe inside. My best friend is a regular at the restaurant and we're hoping to see them more in smaller capacities like when we saw them at the Fulton St. Market. Overall, the food was really good. I like the concept of fast-casual dining without the need to have a server. I think it allows things to feel more casual and allowed for me to be more willing to eat there (obviously in other circumstances lol). I got the horchata hot cakes with some of the papas with ghost sauce. I thought the pancakes were GREAT and more than worth it for the price. I was surprised how large and fluffy they were. The flavor was great without being too sweet and none of the flavors being too overpowering. My friends got the breakfast sandwiches and chaichata drinks and absolutely loved them. My friend loved her drink so much she got two within the span of us eating. I know it's a hard time for local businesses but I'm hoping there are more ways we can still see them around.

Different from the last time I was here but we were told to find a seat upon entering and that when we were ready, we could order our food at the counter. I looked over their menu and found lots of good breakfast taco options, the breakfast burrito I have heard is great, but what really caught my attention was the biscuits and gravy. I was feeling quite ravenous this morning and got the full order for $11 and a side of bacon. They had a table close to the entrance with extra menus, clean cups, water jugs, hot sauces, silverware and napkins. Seemed like a help-yourself vibe which I grabbed everything we would need for our meal. Our food was brought to us rather quickly and my bf ordered the breakfast bowl with scrambled eggs and sausage. He told me it tasted so good and he loved that he could make his own tacos with his food. He let me try one of the hashbrown rounds and it was perfectly crispy! My biscuits and gravy were phenomenal. The biscuits were so fresh and the gravy had a really nice and comforting flavor to it. You could get chorizo and mushrooms in your gravy but i went with a traditional sausage for my protein. My bacon on the side came in a tiny dish but I ate all four pieces haha. Once we finished, there were some bus bins under the same table with the silverware, we placed all our dirty dishes there and cleaned up after ourselves before leaving. I honestly felt so content leaving there and can't wait to return. I really appreciate the ambiance in there with the beautiful plant life, the lights on the ceiling, and cool decor in general. The staff was also SO NICE! Wins everywhere. I also noticed people coming in for takeout which is good to know in case I don't feel like dining in some morning. Please check this place out sometime if you're in the mood for some really good breakfast that doesn't break your bank account.
