Camden Lincoln Station is an amazing place to live with even better staff taking care of the residents. I'd like to give a shout out to Greg on the maintenance team for always going above and beyond. I really appreciate his communication and tenacity; you can tell he really loves his job. The entire team is amazing, but Greg is exceptional. Keep up the great work! read more

A quick pit stop between visiting the BKPL festival and first Saturday at the Bk Museum turned into one of the tastiest meals I have had in ages. We shared a fried chicken sandwich, a portion of broccoli and slake salad. Utterly delicious and the staff are friendly and helpful. Bravo, Lincoln Station. read more

This place is always packed. Love the sandwiches, order them all the time. My favorite is the rotisserie chicken sandwich. The only thing I don't like is the huge celery piece on it. I just remove them. I like celery but not that huge of a piece on my sandwich, thank God they don't put too many on the sandwich, otherwise it's amazing. The kale salad is yummy too. I look forward to trying other items on the menu. read more

Just had lunch there and I am disgusted with what and how I've been served. We thought the place had to be good because it's always crowded but it looks like they don't have the staff to handle the number of customers and so they make everything in advance. We were served cold cheeseburger with congealed cheese and soggy dressing that's been wrapped in that thermal preserving paper obviously sitting around for many hours and definitely NOT made to order. Avocado toast same thing, was so soggy that bread was falling apart. Is there a way to give them -5 stars? Because that's what they deserve. read more

THE BEST CHICKEN SANDWICH I EVER HAD seriously get the chicken sandwich the service is great and the kombucha on tap is amazing

My neighborhood go-to for breakfast and when I need to do laptop work. Food is excellent. Vibe is easy, comfortable. Love this place.

Always happy to stop in for the amazing Avo-egg sandwich. The brussels sprouts are good too. These are my go-tos so I can't speak to much else, but judging by those you won't be sorry. The staff is friendly and the vibe is relaxed. If you have a doggy you can sit outside in nice weather. read more

So relaxing, and the food has never disappointed. Perfect location, steps from my favourite cool down spot--Brooklyn Museum. Ambience: Casual cool. Communal farmhouse type table in the middle, with outlets for our ever present devices. Also a few tables lining the perimeter for more intimate dining. Service: Good. Food: Great. Fresh, fresh, fresh! read more

Lincoln Station - Bacon egg sandwich - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I live a block away, yet somehow had never been here. I stopped in and ordered a bacon egg & cheese and a chocolate chip cookie. It took them 15 minutes to make the sandwich, which seems a bit excessive. It was very good though. Fluffy and flavorful. The cookie wasn't that great. Dry and lacking in chips. I will stop by here again for the sandwich. read more

First time here - came when waiting for the Brooklyn Museum to open. It seems fine for a first visit - not crowded on a Sunday morning with plenty of small tables and one big communal table and most importantly plenty of outlets. Prices are reasonable, the breakfast sandwich was decent, music was on point, and as an added plus they take Apple Pay! I'm sure I'd come back if I'm in the area again! read more

If it weren't for the subpar food and the dismal service, this place would be great. They have great menu items but they're poorly executed. We ordered a beer that was warm and flat--we pointed it out and there was no apology or attempt to fix it. My pulled pork and kimchi sandwich was brought to me cold. The fries weren't really potatoes, but just the oily crispies left at the bottom of the bag. I got my order first then waited 15 minutes for my boyfriend's roasted chicks sandwich. We told the waiter we were waiting for my boyfriend's order and after another 15 minutes of waiting, I had to go to the register to find out his order was never put in. What's the point of having a waiter if you have figure that stuff out on your own? Definitely skip this place. The people there make it too obvious they hate you and their job. read more

I have been coming to this place since it opened in my neighborhood and I love the food, but they really have no regard for the customer here and never have. I wish the management would do something about this. Another reviewer wrote that the hipster employees always look like they want to kill someone and walk away when people approach the counter. This is true if you are a white female as well. There is one stellar employee there, Angel, who always greets me with a smile and remembers my name, since I come in at least two times a week. This is how it should be. My advice to management would be to hold on to this employee for dear life. And perhaps put him in charge of customer service. I would also advise them to have more options as side dishes to come with their entrees. Every time I go in and order a dinner, I'm instructed that substitutions are "not allowed". The other day, I was approached by what seemed to be an employee, but talked to me as if he was a manager. He seemed to come from a place of providing further information as to why they don't allow substitutions, but it came across more like a scolding. He told me they lose money if they substitute the vegetable of the day with the side dish in the entrees. I told him I lose money if I'm forced to buy a side dish I won't eat, and that I'd happily pay an extra dollar or two if that option were made available to me. The only solution that he offered was to pay for everything separately, which to no one's surprise would end up costing me $17 instead of $13, therefore making the restaurant more money. As most reviewers have said, it's true that the food is already overpriced. It's sad that this place doesn't have better customer service. I love the food, so I tolerate it, but they are really alienating their loyal customers. read more

Attention manager(s)/owner(s). Let me begin by saying I think this spot in a great addition to the neighborhood. Granted you've been here for years- but for whatever reason I often forget you're a mere 2 blocks away from me. In any case- since Glass Coffee Shop closed a few years back it's my understanding that you're the only La Colombe distributors in the immediate area. That's a pretty big deal because La Colombe is one of my personal favorites and in my opinion can stand toe-to-toe with Stumptown and Intelligentsia. For this reason as someone who graduated from Stumptown's rigorous and comprehensive coffee training I was saddened to be served the worst latte I've had outside of any Starbucks this morning. Please train the lovely gentleman that served me because he is not skilled enough to be serving up grade A beans like this. And if La Colombe gets word of this I can't imagine they would be pleased as this is their brand. So I'll forgive you this once- but next time I expect a real LATTE. read more

Lincoln Station - A latte this is not... - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

I like Lincoln Station a lot. I spend a lot of money there. They see me often. It's near the train, the Brooklyn Museum, and the Botanical Gardens. Great place to have a meeting, do work, eat brunch, grab a snack, have dinner, get takeout. LS serves so many purposes and is an all around great joint. Here are things I love about it (reasons for the 4 stars): 1. The braised kale sandwich. Where the hell else are you going to get a sandwich filled to the gills with kale? That's right. Nowhere. And with the fava bean spread and focaccia this is perhaps the best sandwich I've ever had. 2. Iced Americanos. Perfection every time. 3. $3 Beer. 4. Computer users have to sit at the communal table. And I do so for some of my own work. There are plugs at each seat and coat hooks under the table. Keeps home-workers away from choice window seating. Totally logical. 5. Lots of veggie salad options. The fact is there are just too few cafes that have non-bread-based options. I'm not vegan, not even gluten-free, but I like to get in my 4-6 servings of veggies a day and don't always like to cook. These are great for a snack or a meal. 6. Friendly register people. 7. The soups are bangin'. And to keep it real here are a few criticisms in case the owners/managers read all of the reviews (why it is not 5 stars): 1. French fries are over-cooked. Lighten up dudes! Fries don't gotta be so crispy. Also please cut them a little bigger. 2. Bfast sandwich is good but could use some tweaking/is sometimes too greasy. Maybe add something crunchy like lettuce or tomato. Lighten up on what seems to be mayonnaise-based red sauce. 3. Fried chicken usually too salty/has been brined too long--this is also the case with the chicken at the sister restaurant, Bar Corvo. Brining is good, but not to be overdone. I love salt, so if something is too salty, then it really is too salty. To be fair, I've had some great fried chicken here. It's just hit or miss with the salt thing. 4. Cookies can be too hard. Make softer cookies! 5. Wifi can be spotty. read more

Are the hours correct for this place? I came at around 6:30pm so perhaps that explains why there wasn't much available when I arrived. There were some ribs and meatballs but they were pretty pricey. Luckily, we were told that if we waited an extra 20 minutes, we'd get two roasted chickens straight from the oven (at around $12 ea.). They were so juicy I thought I'd died and gone to heaven. They were stuffed with fresh rosemary and I think brined? Lincoln Station has a lot of potential but I'm confused about the opening/closing times. Here's to hoping the crinkles smooth with age! All in all, I'm looking forward to coming back here again to supplement my dinners and dinner parties. read more

HUGE FAN! Love the food, environment, and all around a great place to eat or catch up on work.

I think this review is five stars because I tend to get my food to go. And it tends to be between daytime work and evening work meetings. The closest alternative to one of my project sites is Applebee's. Well, technically, there's some Italian restaurant a few blocks away, but I am sort of skeptical that this "restaurant" is anything more than a Potemkin restaurant. Like a Truman Show style stage prop that exists only for me. So Lincoln Station definitely wins by comparison to Applebee's and potentially fake restaurant. The fact that they have an amazing rotisserie chicken sandwich doesn't hurt either. I seriously get excited when the sandwich is sitting there next to me in the passenger seat of my car and I can smell the celery and mayonnaise and grill char. I have usually opened the sandwich by the time I get to Atlantic Avenue and it's usually all gone by the time I get to Interfaith. Of course I drive safely, because the sandwich is never so much "in my hands" as it is "completely stuffed into my face while I keep two hands on the wheel." This sandwich is worth soiling work clothes over. Some people say it's too soggy and messy and I think they've stopped overstuffing and dressing it in response. Mistake as far as I'm concerned. This sandwich was born to be sloppy. Also, the chocolate chip cookies are insane. This empire is sort of uneven, obviously. I was kind of turned off when this place was opening and I realized that they were associated with Bar Corvo (which is made worse in my mind by its proximity to total, unmitigated disaster, Tooker Alley). But LS is the real deal. read more

During my visit at the Brooklyn museum, my family and I stopped in for a bite to eat. We just happened to walk by and walked in. It was busy with all sorts of people. Singles, families, all kinds. I waited in a super long line, which went by quickly. I was excited as this was my first outing in a very looong time. Came up to the counter and I said hello. Nothing from the cashier. No smile, no hello, nothing. I ordered my food and asked if I was outside would they come out and call my name? She says yeah maybe. I hand my card, she swipes and gives me to sign. As I'm signing she takes another customer. I turn around and the line isn't long at all at this time. Why couldn't she wait till I signed and put my wallet back in my bag???!? I think that is the rudest thing!! She was just so rude. No hello, no thank you. Nothing. Mind you I'm with my baby and the stroller at the counter and some stranger is right on top of me placing their order. I wanted to scream! I didn't know her name till I looked at my receipt. Her name is Samantha. The shortest person working there. As for the food.... It was wonderful!! We took our food to go and ate closer to the museum. I gave four stars because the food is super but that girl is horrible!! Samantha you ruined my day for just a second. If you're in the food business you should be nice and smile!! If it's too much for you then you should just clean tables!! read more

I'm still savoring the beautiful delicious decadent breakfast sandwich I just had... this is how all breakfast sandwiches should be. This is the new standard. Brioche bun, real perfectly cooked eggs, cheese, homemade sauce, and thick cut bacon. As I write these mere words they ring mediocrity and simplicity, but be not fooled... it was the finest and fairest of them all. I took it to go and the sandwich didn't make it around the corner. I sat on a bench outside and ate it like a ravenous beast that hadn't hunted in days. I began the 2016 new year with this Lincoln Station sandwich; this is how all things and all years should begin. With legends becoming a reality. Enjoy a well-done cappuccino as well to wash down the feast. read more

Lincoln Station - Overpriced mediocre Egg sandwich with coffee! - Coffee & Tea Near Me - Brooklyn, New York

See all

Too expensive for what you get. Basic sandwiches and veggies. Priced as specialty food, but nothing special. Long wait time and lots of people working there. Acceptable option for the museum and garden crowd, maybe. Priced for tourists not the neighborhood. Although, that wasn't the case when they first opened. They initially offered reasonable salad combos. Good variety or fresh salads at an affordable price. They also offered good coffee in cute colorful large mugs. That changed after a few months. Location and space would be great for a neighborhood friendly spot, but this restaurant is an exploitation of a gentrified area instead. This is sad because I really like their two restaurants, but they lost the initial neighborhood vibe. read more

A mediocre cafe (?) that seems to do as many things well as poorly. Good Stuff: - Wide selection of snacks, coffee, and full meals. Particularly good roast veggies which makes this place a reasonably healthy option - Whole delicious rotisserie chickens (available sometimes) - Four dollar beers Bad Stuff: - Much more expensive than larger stores (Chicken at Fairway: $8, Chicken at Lincoln Station $19, etc.) - Apathetic Staff. They are more than happy to stand around watching you not be helped - Meh Coffee. That doesn't cut it in a neighborhood w/ so many better alternatives All in all, a decent addition to the neighborhood. However, their service and some prices could definitely be improved. read more

Great catering & take out! I used Lincoln Station to cater a party this past weekend and everything turned out really well. We had awesome salads that would be great at any BBQ, the farro, kale and fennel salads were all big hits (for vegetarians and meat eaters alike!) The focaccia bread/pizzas were delicious (easy to share) and the roasted and fried chicken were all spot on. They even sent us a small bottle of house hot sauce to go! Very thoughtful. I would absolutely recommend this place to anyone looking to cater food for a BBQ - much easier than standing over the grill. (Side note: we also got some food catered from Dinosaur BBQ, which was good, but didn't compare to the food from Lincoln Station - much better attention to detail with the food!) I wish they offered delivery, but aside from that everything was great. Thanks so much for a great meal! read more

Try the watermelon juice and the chicken sandwich perfect lunch after a walk in prospect park

This place is great - especially given that this neighborhood desperately needs good food on-the-go that are delicious. I've only had the meatball parm sandwich but it is utterly amazing - so much so that I went back the next day to get it for lunch! One gripe I have with this place is the decor - it's soooo bare. And there's no menu over the counter so you're left to guess what to order until you get up to the cashier or pick up a small pamphlet. Lincoln Station - here is a list of things to improve the atmosphere to pair with your lovely food: 1. Please add a menu sign above the refrigerated foods! 2. The food tastes delicious, but if you look into the glass fridge case - they don't look appealing. Maybe have salads piled up in bowls? Chicken and meats in serve ware? 3. The things for purchase are a bit random. If it had more of a theme or maybe if you can buy grocery items to enhance the meal you are purchasing - that would make sense. But you have oatmeal and sriracha sauce?A bit weird. 4. The bread basket by the cashier is tucked out of view at foot level - def raise that up by the counter so it seems fresher. 5. More seating and art work!! 6. Coffee menu signage by the espresso machine! Besides the atmosphere - the food is great so def stop in for great sandwiches. read more

Well lit cafe for daytime thinking. Came for brunch and ordered the farro salad and the duck sandwich. The farro salad was amazing, must try to make that. But, wasn't crazy about the duck. Better luck next time. I've come back since then because they serve La Colombe (YAY) coffee but it just doesn't taste as good as Glass Shop. I think there needs to be 2 ppl behind the counter as the barista is also the cashier. Sidenote, no sandwiches before 11ish. I tried to plan ahead one morning and pick up a sandwich for lunch omw to work. Fail. read more

Very cozy spot in up and coming Crown Heights. Food is delicious. Had the cheeseburger with fried egg + french fries. My friend had a meatball sub, which was divine. Food is a bit greasy, but the right way. Staff was ok, seating area is large but the food smell will stick to your clothes and hair. Outside seats are very pleasant in the summer. Prices are a bit high for the region though. read more

I went here Sunday night (really happy its open till 10pm on Sunday) and had the Rotisserie chicken sandwich. And WOW! I wouldn't say it was the best sandwich I could ever eat, but it was overly delicious. The service was super friendly too. Prices are solid. So happy the 'hood got a good sandwich place.

Unfortunately, I was not impressed. So, was super excited about the place bc of the great reviews. Wanted a quick bite and the cafe style place looked PERFECT. Unfortunately, the food took a CENTURY to arrive and it really wasn't all that busy - aka, open tables. Then, my glorified grilled cheese was completely burned... to the point where I couldn't eat it. I realize i sound difficult, but this was chunky thick slices bread that was black for 50% of each side. It hurt my mouth to eat. I would have brought it back, but after the long long wait, I just didn't have it in me. I left bummed. Perhaps they were just having an off day. read more

Walked here for lunch after shopping at the grand army plaza farmers market. Everything was soooo good! My boyfriend and I were feeling a little hungover--- so we got a cheeseburger, fries, and the porchetta sandwich. Wow. There were a lot of healthful/veggie options available too. We devoured everything. You can tell they use quality ingredients. Do yourself a favor though... Order the porchetta sandwich. Holy crap, that sandwich blew our minds. Lincoln station is the type of place that I want to go back to and try everything because I'm sure it's all delicious. read more

Such a cute spot in Crown Heights! Casual atmosphere to grab a coffee, food or drinks with friends. It's a perfect crowd pleaser spot when you have that group that can't make up their mind of what they want. I went with friends and we all ordered sandwiches. I tried both of theirs (BBQ pulled pork and a breakfast sandwich) which were incredibly tasty. I went with the less conventional broccoli sandwich with pine nuts, raisins, lemon and ricotta -- it was SO good!! Who knew broccoli could be this delicious. Typically I'm a meat person on a sando, but absolutely worth trying this one! They have a bottled beers, and draft - I went with the 21st Amendment, which was great with the sandwiches. Afterwards we grabbed coffees and shared a carrot cake - all really good. There are a few tables outside of weather is nice. We also saw people there camped out with laptops. read more

Wrong order delivered from Seamless. Busy signals for half an hour. Rude, unhelpful staff after that. A bad time. No idea how the food is hot, but the rotisserie chicken and cheeseburger aren't remotely good cold. read more
