C&B Luncheonette

I’ve been walking by this spot for a while now, and decided to finally check it out. My girlfriend and I each got steak, egg and cheese on a scallion pancake and we split the green tea pancakes for dessert. Everything was a 10/10! The scallion pancakes are perfectly flaky, and the cheese perfectly melty. The green tea pancakes are just the right amount of sweet, with a hint of sharpness from the green tea. We also got a couple of iced dirty matcha lattes — hers with strawberry and mine with vanilla. They use traditional Japanese matcha, and you can tell. Again, everything here was a 10/10. The food is delicious, but the family behind the counter is what makes C&B special. A true mom & pop shop, Crystal (I hope I’m spelling it correctly!!!) and her parents are so kind and so welcoming. I will be returning, and probably with everyone I know. Thank you C&B!!!

SO GOOD! And affordable! My scallion pancake sandwich with steak, mushroom, eggs, cheese was delish. Pancake? Crispy and flaky. Steak and mushrooms? Juicy. Cheese? Melty. Perfect combo. Glad I did pick up so it had time to cool a bit. Otherwise I would’ve burned my tongue with excitement 😂 devoured in seconds. Halfway through pic

It's finally time again to sit outside!!! Zuko is very happy to tag along to brunch at C&B Luncheonette. I've been hearing about this spot for a minute and I'm glad I came. They are so nice and the food just .... Uuuggghhhhh SO GOOD! Looking to come back every gorgeous Friday 🤗☺️😍

Honestly my favorite kind of scallion pancake. Flakey, crispy, not greasy~ It made my steak egg and cheese not so heavy. The staff is super kind and accommodating. I saw their kindness extend to all of the customers which makes such a cozy atmosphere. Also !The matcha is delicious.

C&B Luncheonette is an absolute gem in Ridgewood! This place offers some truly unique and delicious creations — their bacon, egg, and cheese served on a scallion pancake is a must-try. It’s the perfect twist on a classic breakfast sandwich and worth the trip on its own. What really sets C&B apart, though, is the vibe. The entire staff is incredibly friendly and personable — you feel like a regular even on your first visit. Highly recommend!

Run don’t walk! The scallion pancakes are absolutely delicious. Perfect flaky, crunchy, juicy ratio. Every bite was loaded with flavor. Green tea pancakes were perfectly fluffy and the taste wasn’t overpowering, definitely trying them again. Iced Dirty Matchas w/ strawberry were perfect. 10/10 no notes. Way better than any overpriced nonsense you get anywhere else. Came here with my gf for a morning date, we maybe said two sentences (“yuuup that’s the business” and “mmmm mhm that’s delicious”) to eachother because the food was too good to stop eating. To top off the amazing food and drinks, Crystal & her parents were so sweet and charming. Definitely going to come back again and again and again… and again and again

The mamas special (braised pork belly) is literally to die for. I’m not exaggerating when I say it’s the first thing I think about when I wake up every morning. Also- bao buns. And scallion pancakes! Prices are great here and servers are so nice.

We stumbled on this place on the way to my daughter’s doctor’s appointment and had the best time! Not only was the food fast and delicious, they let her draw on their awesome art wall with paint markers and gave her free macaroons for her birthday! VERY nice people!!

Amazing!!! Food is so good, service is even better. Small family owned business and they make sure to take care of all their regulars, very well known in the neighborhood. They also have a cute outdoor space as where you can eat. Love this place and the people!!!

The egg bacon and cheese on a croissant for seven dollars. Good food, but expensive. The owner seem friendly and knew all his customers

One of my closest friends lives in Ridgewood and whenever I visit, I end up stopping by C&B Luncheonette for some delicious and reasonably prices grub. The owners Cindy and Ben are pretty awesome people. I'm not a regular by any means but Cindy always recognizes my voice when I call in and even knows my order by heart, which is a BLT with an over-easy egg on top as well as a large iced-coffee with a little bit of ice. In fact, this past weekend when I was in the area and called in to make an order, Cindy asked me if I wanted to add my usual ice-coffee as I was about to hang up. I glad she did because I indeed forgot (woke up exhausted and indeed needed that coffee!). They have some amazing memorabilia from the 50's to the 2000's hanging on the walls and all throughout their store. I even saw a Duke Nukem video game for sales at the counter. Parking is limited in this area but you can usually find one on an adjacent side street or across the road by the gas station. If you're a local and biking, they have a bike rack directly in front. I felt very safe picking up my food here as they have a very conveniently placed take-out window, so you don't even need to enter. Cindy and Ben, thank you for your warmth, kindness, delicious food and your positivity.

Sweetest lady runs the place.... cheap good food.... patio out back for vibes..... what more is there to say?

Yummy breakfast joint. Friendly owner ! Customer service really goes a long way with reviews. I prefer this place for takeout, but to each it's own.

Friendly staff in an unpretentious classic neighborhood spot. Good food in generous portions for the right price. Lots of menu options. Nice ambiance

It doesn't look like they are open for dine in but you can call and make a reservation and they will seat you in the back patio. They are also doing Togo orders during these COVID times. The owner is very friendly and attentive and the prices are reasonable.

Food is amazing and so are the workers. Been going to this place for years. Absolutely great food you will not be disappointed.

This restaurant always hits the spot when I am in the mood for breakfast. I usually get the Joshua sandwich, bacon, egg, cheese, and breakfast potatoes. They have been around for decades, and have always been the same. The owners work the business and love their customers.

My boyfriend just moved in the area and we were looking for a place to grab breakfast from when I stumbled upon this place 10 minutes away from us. The other reviewers were not lying when they talked about the hospitality here, the lady who took care of us was genuinely the sweetest! The food was delicious. It was exactly what we were looking for on a lazy Saturday morning where we wanted something homey and no frills. I got the 2 eggs with corned beef hash and hash brown which came with coffee or tea and juice. Will definitely come back whenever we can!

This is our first time in New York, so we are glad we found this little hole in the wall as we were wandering around our airbnb trying to find food. First off the people who run this little place are incredibly nice. And the service was so quick! My friend and I both ordered their French toast breakfast plate and wow, the food was amazing. It was like freshly home made breakfast. And the amount of food you get for the price is awesome. Their coffee was good and the orange juice was out of those Tropicana boxes but for the price and the restaurant being run out of what looks like their home, I'm completely satisfied. Their French toast is to die for, by the way. We're coming back for sure for lunch before we leave new york.

Great little spot! Came here because of the other reviews, and it did not disappoint! I went with the deluxe breakfast and there was so much good, and for only $12 it was amazing!!! The potatoes weren't as crispy as I'd like but if that's my only complaint it's a pretty great spot! Not many tables but i went around 10ish AM and there were two other people there! All in all, great

They easily get a 5 star for their service and hospitality which you don't see that very often in New York. The prices for their meals were also pretty reasonable. I enjoyed my experience here.

It's just ok, I've been to 5 star restaurants that blew my mind and this wasn't even close, so I don't understand how this place gets 5 stars. Been here 4 times got a egg and cheese breakfast wrap with avacado, it was $8.75 for a solid but basic sandwich and I had to wait for about 25 miniutes all 4 times. Isn't the point of a diner to be somewhat fast? My boyfriend came here and waited, seriously, 45 minutes for a breakfast sandwich! The bodego on Irving and knickerbocker, 2 blocks away, I can get the same quality sandwich for $6 in 7 minutes. I've given this place a chance, not worth the effort, I give up.

Love love the welcoming hospitality. Everyone is superrrr nice! And the food is affordable and well worth your money. Highly recommend! The lady at the front is so nice!!!

Brought our 2 dogs in because we saw there was a back patio in the Yelp pictures, and the servers were more than welcoming! It was hard for us to find a dog friendly place in Brooklyn. Great breakfast sandwich and an awesome back yard set up. Fully inclosed with grass and they even let us take our dogs off the leash to roam around. It was like we were eating in our own backyard. Thank you so much!

Well well well. Who knew that this place would be a great decent breakfast spot. From the outside not too much but we entered and were asked if we wanted to sit in the back patio.. it was a sunny day so we did. Cozy. I mean not like anything fancy just cozy. We ordered the bananas pancakes. Scrambled eggs bacon with French fries some opted for the home fries but it was good. Even though nothing came out together we eventually we ate at the same time. Was good really no complaint taste wise. The ppl there were very friendly. 30 plus years in business. And they rent the space. 3 hours for 150. Plus an extra hour byob bring your own everything is kinda cool...

Great Place, Owned By a nice Couple, They have been their for over 30 Years, Cheese Steak Sandwich is off the Charts, Amazing, Better then Pat's and Gino's Famous Cheese Steak Sandwiches in Philly PA. Hamburgers are Boars Head, Thick Meaty Juicy Burgers as well. All of their Sandwiches are made with Boars Head Meat's. Great Coffee and Great Home Made Breakfast, They make you feel like your eating at a friends place and not a place of business, That's hard to find in NYC. Also make sure you visit their back yard , you can eat out in the back yard and Rent it as well for any event.

This is a really nice stop for when grabbing a quick bite or for brunch to get you back on the road. The ladies here will welcome you with a big smile and they're brunch is really good. They will offer the patio so you will feel comfortable and home style like. Btw it's 2 steps from the Halsey subway station.

I love this place! One of the owners,Cindy, will always greet you with a smile, remember your name and past orders and even offer suggestions. she is super sweet. THE FOOD is also really good. They tailor the coffee/tea/food to however you prefer. In the mornings this is a trucker and commuter favorite. I recommend the burgers (which are big), coffee,tea, and breakfast sandwiches and pancakes. I like coming here in the mornings and know anyone else will too.

Don't be fooled by the small store front- food is delicious and their backyard seating is gorgeous. Come for breakfast or lunch on a nice day and definitely sit outside. I had the chicken cheesesteak style hero sandwich with peppers, onions and American cheese and my friend had wings and fries. Everything was 5 stars and the friendliest service. Will definitely be back!!

Stopped by on the way to the Metro to grab a bite, the reviews were good but their food was even better. I had the corned beef hash with home style potatoes and 2 eggs over easy. The price was even better, $7.50 for everything! I'm a fan and will be back anytime I am in Brooklyn.

A Bushwick gem. Owners are very sweet people. Breakfast is cheap and delicious. Bacon is always crispy and pancakes are amazing. Small seating space inside and a nice backyard outside.

Came in for some breakfast for the first time here and sat outside. The staff was friendly and the food was great! Prices not bad either. We could have sat inside but we opted for eating outside and enjoyed our food out back where they have tables set up. I recommend this place.

I love this place so much. The two people that are always working there are so unbelievably kind and hardworking. They will without a doubt make you feel like you're at grandma's house on a Sunday. I'm not even sure of their names but they always put a smile on my face. They're also very good about wearing masks, providing hand sanitizer, cleaning up, etc. Their back patio feels like home, and their food is always on point. Give them some love!!!

We went here every morning from our airbnb to have our breakfast, with coffee, tea and cheese/potatos/ham/egg "on a roll", which comes close to a european/german usual bun (as closest you can get in the US ;). Its delicious and low priced... and the asian couple is very sweet.

This place is really really really good. But the best part to me: the people. They are so kind... They take care of your order like a Queen/King!

This is one of the rare restaurants that puts care into what they serve and give the customer. If you want some good French toast this is the place to go to. Ben makes the best French toast in the city, and if you want whole wheat French toast he also can make that for you and it's delicious. Cindy is always welcoming, they know they're regular customers even those that come in once a while like me when I'm in the area. Cindy and Ben you guys rock!

I found this spot while searching for a "nearby breakfast restaurant." While I really enjoyed my experience, it's definitely not a restaurant. Fantastic bodega though!

I'm giving this location 5 stars because of their bacon, egg and cheese sandwiches. Hands down, the best!! The bacon is perfectly cooked, the cheese is appropriate and the eggs and fluffy and tasty.

delicious food, I came here because I yelped it and I'm so happy I did!! soooo gooood and attention A1

Since they opened their back yard, i've been frequenting this place more. This place is quality. Its clean and much more pleasant to be in than the next door restaurant Bill's to have breakfast or lunch. The service is immaculate and the food is really well prepared. Their home fries are amazing and my favorite part is that they have sirracha on each table. Its my neighborhood gem.

The local spot really awesome place. Cindy the owner is very sweet been here forever I always go here if I am going out for breakfast In he area. They are closed on Sunday but love their omelets and turkey bacon egg and cheeses.

stopped in for breakfast, got a bacon egg and cheese with home fries. very very delicious!! the home fries were sauteed in peppers making it very flavorful. would go here again.

THE BEST!!!!!! I'm so glad that this place is my local spot. Nice people who remember you. Great food that's very reasonably priced. And now the have wi-fi!
