Great spot for tasty food and generous portions! Our waitress was friendly and professional. We ordered the short ribs and chicken pot pie. Both dishes were cooked to perfection. Prices were reasonable for being in NYC. We have found this restaurant to be consistently good. Highly recommend.

This place is such a great find! Prices are competitive, location is great, within walking distance to touristy stuff to do. Employees are considerate and friendly. Food is really good! Not too greasy for the fried stuff at all! My wife got the pot pie,was amazing!!! I got the fish and chips, excellent! I got a mixed drink as well, pretty strong as I like to taste the liquor myself. Enjoy!

Ordered the Pasta Special of the Day (Walnut pesto pasta with grilled chicken) and the Soup and Sandwich Special of the Day (Bacon and multi cheese with a cup of tomato soup). Pasta and soup were very tasty but the soup came out cold and pasta was missing the Parmesan cheese on the top the waiter seemed extremely unconcerned about these details. Sandwich was lack luster at best but ok when dipped into the soup. Price: Reasonable price for lunch in Gramercy. Number of choices on menu/specials.

Best scrambled eggs I’ve had. The biscuits and gravy were amazing as well. Good portion sizes with reasonable prices. Great service and atmosphere also!

Great spot for breakfast. Wasn’t gimmicky, just good food, hot coffee and beautiful pancakes. Really loved the atmosphere and fantastic service. Couldn’t ask for more. Fair price point. Sausage was killer.

The food was fine. I had the egg’s Benedict, my staple when trying out a new place, The eggs and ham were good the potatoes less so. They had Abba playing so loud we had to shout to be heard - not my idea of fun

Solid food at reasonable prices - we enjoyed our lunch here. There is definitely a wait on the weekend for brunch. You have to go and stand in line, no putting your name down. The breakfast was filling and the eggs and bacon were cooked well. I wasn’t a fan of the home fries because the fries themselves were so small and therefore difficult to pick up. Also, I deducted a star because they brought out one entree 5-10 minutes after the others so our food got cold as we didn’t want to eat without our friend.

I've been here a few times and it's always great! This time we had the avocado toast and fish and tips! They were both tasty! I wish they had the brunch menu during weekdays so I could order the French toast too. BTW, they are still doing contact tracing. I will keep coming back :)

Stopped for breakfast while in town. The class has a quaint ambience. The coffee was better than average. We had avocado toast and eggs Benedict both of which were excellent. We highly recommend stopping if you are in the area.

Food and service was great all around! The mimosas were strong and perfect! Only complaint is the table we were at was kinda sticky so we put some napkins to overcome the ickiness. Otherwise a great spot - pancakes, eggs, biscuits all hit the spot.

Delicious sweet pea soup and hummus plate. My daughter and I had a wonderful meal with a very pleasant staff. The locale was beautifully decorated and very comfortable. We recommend and will be returning.

Not sure how much it is a Manhattan style eatery, but we had a great time during our visit to town. The staff was helpful and friendly, the food was timely and well prepared. The place has a classic feeling with its traditional wooden furniture and bare walls. We had the fish cakes, the pumpkin soup, the fish burger and the chili, all of them were simple but homey and tasty. Didn't reserve, but had no problem having a seat on a Tuesday evening.

I have been coming to Blue Bell for a few years, for brunch, and I do enjoy . But I have to say some of the wait staff can edgy.

Came here for brunch, and have to say this is one of the most delicious and reasonably priced brunches I've had in the city. I ordered the country eggs, which featured a really delicious biscuit with gravy. The table next to us ordered a lovely looking Brioche French Toast, which I would love to try. It's quite cute inside as well, not too loud and bustling even at 3PM on New Year's day.

This is my favorite brunch place in the city. Not too crowded, lots of food options, all taste great! You can't go wrong with any dish, but I particularly liked the smoked salmon salad and the country eggs. Go to this place!

The food is very affordable and the portions are great. The brunch food tastes pretty much like breakfast food. The staff are good and helpful. The atmosphere is lovely! Will definitely recommend this for a simple brunch date.

The coziest cutest spot with an excellent menu! It feels like you're sitting in someone's kitchen/living room, the decor is so quaint and beautiful. Large menu for brunch so there should be something for everyone. Been here multiple times and ordered different things each time, and each dish I've had has been fantastic. Service is great, never had a bad experience here.

Average price, portions for NYC. Tried one of the burgers and fries for brunch. Burger tasted decent, fries could have used more salt or flavouring. Chill brunch atmosphere cafe.
