The Common

Usually very happy with them, but they shortcut on my recent order. Maybe they are out of their sweet potato sides, but I didn’t order the regular potatoes. Very disappointed today.

My favorite brunch spot in Brooklyn! Food is cozy and creative - the menu changes ever so often and is only better each time. Perfect place for a date or a meal with the family. Service is quick and friendly and the atmosphere is relaxed. The Common is one of the most affordable choices of brunch places in the area yet always delivers quality dishes and the coffee and espresso are excellent too.

My daughter and I just love this place! The food is amazing and every bite was incredible!
Not to mention great customer service!!

Really great little place that specializes in brunch fare. Polite staff and quick serve make it an easy go-to for a tasty meal. Definitely recommend the Smoked Salmon Benedict.

This was only the second time I've eaten here. I don't know why? The food is so good here. I started off with the sweet potato wedges, really good. For dinner I ate the waffle & chicken with a spicy maple glaze. Outstanding. I'm going to make it my business to eat here more often. This is probably one of the better places to eat in the area.

Very quality brunch. Menu is very different and creative. Staff is super friendly. Coffee drinks are on point. We had breakfast in the skillet and s’more French toast. Loved it. Keep up with a good work.

All the food here is incredibly delicious with a menu full of healthy and nutritious options. The waitress is an absolutely doll - so sweet and accommodating. Glad to have found this gem!

Great food. I recommend the sausage skillet or the breakfast Naan

I had just completed a track workout with my son and we were both hungry. I was about to bring him to a diner in Bay Ridge to order from the breakfast menu, but I wanted to try a different restaurant for a change. The Common has a separate breakfast/brunch menu and a lunch/dinner menu. When we entered, the place was warm and inviting. I was immediately impressed by the four men cooking in the open kitchen in the middle of the restaurant. The decor had a natural, woodsy feel to it. I ordered the Mediterranean Omelet. It was very well-presented with a side of arugula salad covered with a tasty house dressing. The dish was delicious. My son ordered a three-grain bowl which included pulled pork, avocado, radish, pickled onions, cilantro, and a poached egg. The three grains consisted of quinoa, brown rice, and bulgur. My son who is now a teen and doesn't talk much appeared to have a very enjoyable time eating this dish. The total bill for our meal was comparable to what we would have been charged had we had breakfast at the nearby diner. However, this place was a few notches higher in quality than a diner. The menu offered a lot of variety as well as interesting dishes. Some items that stood out were pastrami grilled cheese, mango mint iced tea, breakfast nachos, and avocado smoothies. I definitely want to return here to check out the dinner menu.

Highly recommend for breakfast or brunch. Great service and food is delicious!
