Station

At the heart of Williamsburg, Station brings the feel of an old-world European train station café & restaurant in a contemporary setting. Cast-iron throwback storefront gates extend outside for an open air experience. An open kitchen amazes with full view of the chefs preparing their delights. A white marble topped wooden bar, 1800s original brick & antique mirror enhance a turn-of-the-century feel.

The food is Bistro Cuisine on vacation in Brooklyn, an eclectic mix of cultures & flavors. The freshest seasonal ingredients, local vegetables, fruits & meats drive the menu–a community of talented NYC-based artisans are supported & showcased, facilitating the farm-to-table experience. Full Vegan & Brunch menus available.

Guests are encouraged to interact with kitchen. The chef & all preparers are free for questions. The bar features full liquor, wine selections & a signature cocktail menu of hand-crafted libations from an in-house mixologist.

"Good brunch spot. Was able to accomodate a big group on short notice, and there didn't seem to be much of a line. I would definitely recommend the sangria. Also, be sure to pick up a free chocolate chip cookie before you head out!"

"Our food was excellent. Four of us got burgers, one person had the chicken sandwich, and one person had the french toast. Our drink orders were taken promptly after seating and those drink orders were refilled often! Incredicible service and creative dishes will keep me coming back!"

"We were running a few minutes late, and they held our table for us. The place is so small, and packed with so many tables and people. So glad it was nice out, so the outside wall was open, so I didn't feel trapped.. They made mistakes on my kids' pancake order, which is kind of hard to do. For $13 or $14 for each kid's plate of pancakes, I wished I'd had them share. Overall, it was fine. In a great location for walking around and shopping before or after. I'm not sure I'd go back, as I'm sure there are far more pleasant places to brunch in Williamsburg. The others just don't take reservations, and when dining with kids, long waits for tables aren't really an option."

"... Although I guess it's not that new? I hadn't been in the neighborhood in a whole but went to mhow for a show. Found station and have it a shot and it surpassed my expectations. Really delicious scallops and beef bourguignon. I'd def go back."

"We were visiting from the UK and looking for a venue to hold a 'get-together' brunch for a group of our NY friends. The staff were great and really helpful as I updated them during the week on the changing numbers to our reservation.
Our table was ready and waiting when we arrived and drinks were served immediately. Our waiter allowed us to chat amongst ourselves and read the menu before taking our food order and our brunch was served swiftly.
Everyone in the group was happy with their delicious food and the atmosphere was friendly and vibrant.
Possibly the biggest stack of pancakes and best bloody mary I've ever had!"

"I was looking for a restaurant near my home in Brooklyn and came across Station. I'm glad I did! The food is absolutely fantastic. The pancakes are fluffy and the size of a dinner plate while the French toast is crispy and nice and eggy. The bottomless brunch is an unbeatable if you are going to have 2-3 drinks with your meal. We went to the restaurant on a Sunday and it was full but the tables seem to turn over quickly."

"went for brunch and thoroughly enjoyed everything. I had a BLT and it was made with the best tasting bacon and bread, burger was very good and the grilled chicken sandwich was excellent. Great drinks! the service was attentive and friendly. Another table had a platter that included eggs bacon and pancakes that could have fed a small army, so if your hungry....."

"Wow!! A real gem in Willuamsburg, the staff was so helpful even though we were 30 minutes late. We had a 9 year old with us and they had no problem making suggestions at what she may enjoy! No charge for just letting her share! We will definately return! Btw did I say how great the food was."
