Plan a weekend brunch here.

🍲 North African Plates

Simple Cafe brings French and Algerian cooking to Bedford Avenue, and the bread is baked fresh in house. Tear into it alongside a bowl of tchoutchouka or a spread of baba ghanoush and za'atar hummus.

The menu blends North African and French influences with a light touch. Clean, lighter plates include a quinoa crusted chicken cutlet, a beet salad, and a leek, mushroom, and goat cheese quiche, while comforting soups round out the kitchen's range. A run of wine pairing options lets dinner stretch into a slow evening.

The main dining room keeps a chill, music filled atmosphere, and a small storefront next door extends the cafe beyond its tables. Weekend brunch is the relaxed centerpiece of the week. Doors open four days a week, with Thursday and Friday from noon to 10 PM, then Saturday and Sunday from 10 AM to 10 PM for the brunch crowd. Monday through Wednesday the kitchen stays closed.
