Fort Greene French Bistro With a Heated Year-Round Patio
A Fort Greene French bistro for croque madame brunch, natural wine and red leather booths, with a patio heated for winter.
🍽️ Brunch Beyond Patio Season
Café Paulette gives Fort Greene a French bistro table that outlasts patio season. Its parkside patio runs year round and is heated for winter, keeping an outdoor meal in play when Brooklyn turns chilly. Inside, red leather booths and seats around a marble bar offer a warmer option.
The kitchen works through a compact menu of French staples. Brunch is the local draw, and the order to start with is the croque madame with a side of fries, then a glass from the natural wine list. Service tends to be swift and accommodating, which keeps a weekend table relaxed.
Find it at 1 South Elliott Place. Monday runs from 5 PM to 10 PM, while Tuesday through Sunday runs from 10 AM to 10 PM, which leaves six days for a brunch plan. Summer Tuesday nights bring live jazz, a seasonal reason to return when the evenings turn warm.
