Chez Ma Tante

An evening out in Greenpoint ends here. Chez Ma Tante delivers classic bistro fare with unexpected flair—and does it fast enough to keep the crowd moving. The corner spot sits down Calyer’s quiet stretch, between tree-lined blocks and the East River breeze; 90 Calyer St, Brooklyn, NY 11222 finds them everyday.

In town for breakfast before work or dinner after a show, many stop in alone. They order the local specialty—always rotating—and pair it with a cocktail poured straight from the solid wine and beer list. Coffee arrives hot; the short menu leans into comfort without apology. Questions about that cocktail flight can go to (718) 389-3606.
