    The outside on Lexington.
    Marianne W.

    Little Collins was my daughter's choice. She planned the timing just right before it was too busy. Her brunch sandwich and home fries looked really good. She certainly enjoyed every bite. I had more than enough for a doggie bag. Mine was a. Broccoli Burrito. It was worthy of the Gas X later! I had not been here in years. I'm not sure if I would go regularly. If I'm with someone that wanted to try Little Collins I would not protest. I wish the space was bigger. Service was timely and with a smile. Go!

    Eggs Benny

    Enjoyed a lovely brunch in this hustle and bustle. Eggs Benedict and French Toast both were delicious and some of the best breakfast meals we've had. Their service was attentive and friendly.

    Fantastic little lunch/brunch spot! I came with a friend for lunch on a weekday and we were surprised by how busy it was. It's a bit confusing as there are separate waiting lines for dine-in and take-out and given it was a workday, there were plenty of people ordering take-out We were seated fairly quickly a the counter by the window and I ordered the Green Eggs n' Damn after seeing plenty of others getting the same. Loved the spinach & basil omelet stuffed with feta. The basil really comes through and adds a twist to omelet. I got a side of the greek sausage to try too and it was a little salty but yummy with a squeeze of lemon. My friend got the smash, avocado and feta on their thick cut toast. Great for a simple, lighter option!

    Cute cups!

    It's a buzzing place! My friend and I took out breakfast to go, because we did not want to wait for 30 minute line. The latte and cappuccino were tasty and excellent. I ordered the green omelet with spinach and feta and sourdough, delish! Recommend coming here during off hours to avoid lines. Staff were friendly and considerate.

    Great brunch spot on the weekends. A bit of a wait but food is good. Lots to choose from!!!

    Flat White

    After finishing a late lunch nearby, my friend and I continued our catch-up at Little Collins. It's supposedly an Australian-style cafe, so I went with a flat white. It was good, but not particularly memorable and didn't quite live up to expectations. The little cookie on the side was a nice touch, though. The latte art was intricate and very pretty. We sipped our drinks at the high-top tables, which was much more casual. The sit-down tables were filled with late brunch diners. The cafe seemed pretty and well-liked, so I'm open to try their food in the future.

    B.E.C. Sammie with Home Fries
    Johanne R.

    This venue is a non-regrettable tight squeeze. Located near Grand Central Station. Had a blueberry scones pain au chocolat. Both were fresh with good flavor. Unfortunately, they can not warm the pastries. Their toaster is too small to warm the pastries. Also had the B.E.C Sammie. It's small, fits in the palm of your hand. Flavorful, but the bread was not warm. The home fries were well seasoned but a little to mushy for me. Besides the pastries, I enjoyed the side of bacon best. The staff was very friendly and attentive. The cost, not overly expensive, basicslly Manhattan price point. If you've read my reviews, you recall I end with, "Will I return?" Meh, no thanks. It just wasn't anything to write home about and I'm JUST a train ride away!

    Came here for a sit down on the quicker side lunch with my friend who needed to catch a bus back to his hometown later in the day. He picked this place as we were looking for places near where he needed to get the bus. I was the first one here and so when I walked in I was a bit shocked of how crowded it was and that there were no tables. Yes it was at lunch time so not sure why I was shocked of how crowded it was. Put my name down for a table for three. Had to wait about 10 or so min. We finally got to sit at our table and the waiter came over quick to us and asked if we knew what we wanted. We said we were waiting for the third person and we didn't know yet what we wanted. Our waiter seemed a tad out of it. Not in a bad way I am not sure how to explain it. Anyways, we finally got to order and I got just eggs over easy with a side of bacon. It came with toast and butter. my friends had ordered a breakfast burrito and than other friend ordered eggs Benedict with bacon. His came out with what looked to be lox but he did not send it back as we did not really have time to waite for them to re do it he was ok with the fish. Good thing he had no allergies like I do. My other friend who got the breakfast burrito seemed like she was enjoying hers. My eggs over easy were fine nothing special kinda tasteless though. It came with one small little package of butter that was pretty much melted as it was on the same plate as the warm toast and eggs. This was kinda annoying. You got also 3 small pieces of bacon. I took a bite of one of the pieces and did not want to finish them as that one bite tasted a little like fish even though I told the waiter my allergies. Not sure if it is cooked in same oil or something as fish or what but I did not finish them. To drink I had just a regular iced latte. Comes in a small glass which I was not expecting. It was nothing special. My other friend got a bloody mary which looked pretty good. And my third friend got a glass of Orange juice. All in all, this is not somewhere I will be running back too. If I am in the area and am starving or need a caffeine pick me up I will think about it. It is also near Grand Central station. One last thing is that this place gets crowded fast and can be a bit noisy at times.

    Matcha tonic, pour over coffee
    Cheri S.

    Came here looking for a quick but hearty bite to eat and left with my heart and tummy full! The place serves as both a dine in and take out place but there's not much division between the two. It's very quaint and modern but the best part was the food! I got shakshuka and while it didn't taste authentic it was flavorful and hearty! I scrapped the bowl clean! I also tried their BEC and the potatoes were cooked to perfection. Their matcha tonic I watched them make right in front of me and their pour over coffee is served in a French press. So many little elements I enjoyed about this place. Great service!

    Dash's Fried Chicken Sandwich
    Von W.

    We came for the chocolate chip cookie, but they were sold out, so we stayed for the fried chicken sandwich. Fried chicken sandwich: 7/10; It lacked seasoning on its own, but requesting chipotle mayo definitely amped up the flavor. The chicken filet was also on the thinner side, which took away from the overall bite. Service: 8/10; Our server was sweet, and the team (3 total) were hospitable. Ambience: 7/10; Loud, small, and narrow. We could barely hear each other, so it's best suited for takeout.

    Came to little Collin's this morning, and it is in fact little. Lol. But it's really cute and I like the blue and white theme. There weren't that many options for sitting, so you have to be prepared to wait for a second for a table. Thankfully, upon arrival, we were able to sit down almost immediately as a couple tables opened up. The menu is pretty short and sweet. They have sandwiches, pancakes, French toast, potatoes, bakery options, etc. it seems that they are more of a coffee shop, so there were plenty of coffee and tea options. The homefries were really good, just a little oily and not as crispy as I would've liked. The restaurant makes their own jam, which seemed to be dragon fruit, and it was tasty but i don't think it went well with my sandwich. My friend gave her French toast a 7.5.

    This is a long overdue from our trip to NY. Little Collins is such a good brunch spot. The food was really good and nicely presented, especially if you're in the mood for something a little treat. Everything tasted delicious (even though it's sweet) It does get busy, but the vibe is lively, which honestly works for brunch. Definitely a solid place for brunch if you are visiting

    Collin's Granola
    Tammie W.

    Little Collins is a stone's throw from my old office in Midtown East off of 3rd near GC and the Chrysler building. I used to grab coffee here in the mornings when I was visiting the office but decided to sit and eat one morning. I was looking for something a big lighter and guilt free from my daily bagel diet in NY and opted for the granola bowl and a macchiato. The coffee was smooth, creamy, and delightful. The granola bowl was nice and tangy from the labneh, sweetened with vanilla and maple, and has a nice crunch from the coconut, granola, and brûlée banana on top. It's always busy, not a place to linger too long, and has a nice variety to their menu.

    Ask the Community - Little Collins

    Does this place have high chairs?

    Do I need to make reservations?

    It's not that type of establishment. They are a small restaurant and you can just walk in. They tend to get pretty busy and packed, especially during lunch hours so takeout is convenient if you can't snag a seat. They have many "on the go" options.… 

    Would it be okay to come here with a toddler for brunch?

    Yes. But beware if it if after 10:30-11 for Long wait

    Which location is bigger, the urban space or 3rd avenue?

    3rd avenue

    Is the outside seating covered?

    Yes, it is covered.

    Does this place take reservations and how difficult is it to find a spot on a Saturday morning?

    Do you have any organic food options? Your restaurant came up on an organic list yet, I saw nothing in your description or menu saying anything about organic food options.

    Is there WiFi and seating available?

    I'm not sure about WiFi but seating is VERY tight and limited. If you sit down, you'll constantly be bumping elbows with patrons waiting in line or ones waiting for you to leave.

    I first found this place through TikTok, where people were hyping it up in Italy. I was pleasantly…read moresurprised to find out they had a location in New York City, so I obviously had to give it a try. There are a few locations, but I decided to visit this one because it was the most convenient for getting to and from home. I got there around 7:00 PM, which felt a little close to closing time since Google said they close at 9:00 PM, but it wasn't busy at all. In fact, I was only the third customer to place an order. I ordered the La Summer sandwich and added pesto. After sitting down and taking my first bite, I immediately understood the hype. Without a doubt, this is one of the best sandwiches I've had in a very long time. I'm not even a huge sandwich person when it comes to subs and deli meats, but everything tasted incredibly fresh. The ingredients paired together perfectly, and you could still taste each one individually. The only thing I'd change next time is the meat. I had no idea prosciutto was a type of ham, but honestly, it didn't even taste like ham to me. It was sliced paper-thin, slightly salty, and worked surprisingly well with everything else. Next time, though, I'll probably add salami just to see how it compares. Overall, this sandwich was a solid 10/10, and I will absolutely be back--whether it's to try a different sandwich or, if we're being honest, order the exact same one again with salami added. I will say it's on the expensive side, but that's New York City for you. Apparently, all of the ingredients are flown in from Italy. After tax and tip, I paid a whopping $28 for a single sandwich. That said, it was incredibly filling and definitely kept me satisfied. The workers were also really nice and accommodating, and the indoor seating was beautiful. The atmosphere felt like a fancy Italian café, complete with couches and artwork throughout the space. I wish I had taken pictures, but honestly, I was too busy enjoying what might be the best sandwich I've had in years.

The menu inside breaks down all of the sandwhiches, you roll up to the deli counter when they say next, spill out your order (add/remove stuff to your order) and you're done.

Be PREPARED this Sammie has some chili honey liquid /oil sauce they put on it and it's tasty but it's a lot. The staff are friendly - just focused on getting your order and getting it to you so you can enjoy. The wall is pretty interested they have made their own decor out of door panel fixtures.
