Ordered the Alex. Didn't take long and it was so good and filling. Really cute causal eating area, big windows for people watching. I came early in the morning so it was hardly anyone there which was great and the AC was on high so it was so comfortable. The guy at the front was very nice read more

Delicious food. Shakshuka to die for. Freshly baked pastries. Great atmosphere and service. I'll be back.

I practically live at this place. Try everything. You can't go wrong here! Piper & Crazy Eyes are my two favorite sandwiches...they're all named after Orange is the New Black characters. read more

Wonderful people, and amazing sandwiches prepared with care. Coming back again and again.

I should say that this is more of a review of the Red sandwich than the restaurant as a whole, because every time I've been there it's the only thing I ordered because it's so crazy good. Chicken meatball, spicy/sweet tomato sauce, perfect crunchy bread--it may be my favorite sandwich in NYC. read more

Go eat one of their cupcakes right now!! There are few things that will induce me to get on the J/M/Z, but this is one of them.

Tasty and fresh food, at a a fair price! I've tried the sweet peppers and goat cheese sandwich, as well as the tuna. Both were very good. The bread is homemade (I believe) and the vegetables are fresh and colorful. The cookies and sweets are also delicious. A sandwich runs you $6 or $6.50, and it seems the menu will be changing around regularly, which keeps things interesting... read more

Been coming here for about a year now. Love the Breakfast. Hate the customer service. Only the Husband smiles, not the women. Especially the other owner. I dined in for breakfast one morning, only customer inside at the moment. All I could here the employees complaining about customers. My husband loves the place as well brings his friends in from time to time, found a hair in his food. Didn't even complain. But today really threw a pinch. The female owner, was very rude to my husband. He came around 8:45 thinking they were open. Saw the gate halfway open. And just pushed the door open. She immediately was rude. We are coming to you for business. Have had times where we completely didn't like your service and have never complained. read more

Came here twice during our stay in Brooklyn. Once for breakfast, once for lunch. Love how the sandwiches are named after Orange is the New Black characters. The egg, bacon, and cheese breakfast sandwich is basically the breakfast sandwich that I now compare all other breakfast sandwiches to. I had the hibiscus iced tea, which was a bit too sweet for me, and the second time I had iced apple cider, which was delicious and refreshing. Nice seating inside too. read more

Great atmosphere and delicious vegan and non-vegan options! Have tried the Scully, Crazy Eyes, and Goldielox and loved each one. The vegan cookies and baked goods are also delicious! read more

I stopped by and got their vegan chocolate chip cookie and it is literally heaven in my mouth. Not what expected at all it's so much better

Chez Alex is one of my favorite spots to eat in Brooklyn. As a vegan, I appreciate the hearty and delicious options that fill the menu. I have tried all of the sandwiches, (vegan) caesar salad, power bowl, and the mac & chez. Everything is delicious and there isn't a thing I wouldn't get on this menu! The portions are generous and prices are good in comparison to other restaurants in the area. I also feel that the sandwiches are healthier than some of the other nearby vegan sandwich places (Toad Style, Champs) as they are much less greasy and taste so fresh. Save room for dessert: the cookies and cake are delicious! I often come here to work remotely, and get a lot done in the bright environment. The only problem is that I usually want to get breakfast, lunch, AND dessert! read more

I had the Red sandwich which has chicken meatballs, a spicy red sauce and pickled tomatoes plus a Dirty Chai. Both were good.

With all due respect to this establishment, I have just one thing to say. I cannot support a business that doesn't have a friendly, inviting staff. If this place is going to make it, they need to give it AND their staff a lot of attention. Cookies were nothing to rave about, neither was the brownie. read more

i have been a regular at this place since it first opened but they don't seem to appreciate their regulars and take any request with a condemning face. they're overpriced, charge you for paying with a card, and have the loudest & lamest music. they have the grill on all the time but no air circulation or fan for it. and for some reason, while at the heart of bedstuy, their staff is all and always white. read more

so let's be real the only reason i got coffee here is because the vegan eatery down the block (Toad Style) doesn't serve coffee and suggests for everyone to come here for coffee instead. I made the mistake of ordering almond milk. and that stuff is sweet a f! what if someone has a sugar sensitive health condition? i think you should at least warn people that the "milk" had a ton of sugar in it. Honestly a lot of coffee shops seem to think it's ok to sell milk with sugar in it as long as it says "original" on the package, which sucks because it basically forces me to order cow juice if i don't want to deal with the nasty sweet aftertaste. Adding insult to injury, the lid seemed to be tightly attached to the coffee cup, but that sh*t kept leaking all over my hands and jacket. honestly spilling coffee all over myself doesn't bother me too much, unless it's sweet, which means sticky, which is so annoying. anyway may i suggest that you use unsweetened almond milk instead (people can add sugar themselves if they want sugar) and test out your lids before handing the drink to a customer, since youre putting the lids on the drink for us, which is nice but not if it causes major spillage. the coffee itself was just ok, but it seems this place puts a lot of effort into its vegan baked goods, which is cool, even though I haven't tried them. read more

I'm not a frequent Yelp reviewer but I feel compelled to declare my love of Chez Alex' sandwiches. The vegetarian "Crazy Eyes" sandwich is off the hook: kale, cauliflower, jalapeños, etc. Also a big fan of the "Goldielocks" containing smoked salmon, avocados and tomatoes. Thankful to have great sandwiches in the neighborhood. Now can someone please open a wine shop? read more

I was there on Friday, and I must say I had the best sandwich I think I've ever had. It was the Red, with chicken meatballs, spicy tomato-pineapple sauce, pickled red onions and cilantro, on a just right bread, maybe a panini roll. I appreciate good food, and this was wonderful. The strawberry basil lemonade was remarkable as well. The service was friendly and polite, and the decor is pleasant and interesting. I was only visiting Brooklyn, but I would be a regular at Chez Alex if I lived close by! Well done. read more

Just got back from here after eating their Crazy Eyes sandwich. The decor could be improved but the food is delicious! I will, probably, be going back there to try out the remaining goodies on their menu. read more

Just moved to Bushwick and Chez Alex is my favorite part of the neighborhood. I've been here three times just this week now. My bosses loved the cookie cups, banana pudding is on point, and carrot cake will not disappoint you. People here are super friendly as well! read more

Must try! The sandwiches were unlike anything we've ever had and absolutely delicious. We had the Dexter and the Tastee. Also indulged in sweets - so good! Not sure what the other reviews are talking about - the owner was really sweet speaking to us and chatting with regulars, and the decor is awesome and homey complete with terrariums, comfy armchairs, lots of books and cool things to look at. Come here! read more

I sent a very rude review before but it's not worth my time to stoop to the level of treatment I received in this bakery. I will let you know that the service is not great, and they do not put their customer service as #1 like they should. Preferably, I prefer to be treated well and get a not so great meal than to have a great meal, and get treated with a lack of respect. I only want to give my money to people who have respect for me and I'd rather give that money to the RIGHT people who deserve it. If you have this type of mentality, I don't suggest this being a great place for you. If you're more about getting good food, sure the foods not bad here. read more

I'm so happy about this place! The sandwiches are freakin' delicious--and so are the baked goods. The vegan cookies are AMAZING! Can't wait to see how the menu and decor progresses as time goes on! Great addition to the neighborhood--we needed a thoughtful sandwich place, desperately! read more

This bakery / coffee shop is my favorite. I've tried several of the pastries at this bakery, everything is delicious. The lemon bars are just incredible. I've also had their specialty sandwiches, equally amazing. The Goldie Lox is the best! The owner is really really friendly. Great ambience, great coffee, great food. You have to try it! read more

I met Alex behind the counter the other day and she is just a wonderfully kind woman, the decor is adorable (On the coffee table there's a little bitty cactus inside of a birdcage! And plenty of books to grab and read.) I had the blueberry/raspberry tart with the ginger mint lemonade and for 1.) Hands down THE BEST lemonade I've ever had. I even stole a sip of my momma's (who was visiting all the way from the southwest) strawberry basil lemonade and holy shit I couldn't decide which one I liked more. And 2.) The berry tart was so delicious, and the perfect size, i'm definitely making this place a ritual spot. read more

ok sandwiches. coffee is so so. friendly enough. their attire inside leaves much to be desired

delicious sandwiches, including vegan options, pastries, and fresh ginger lemonades!!!
