The Little Sweet Café

The Little Sweet Cafe is simply lovely! The food is exquisite!!! The baked goodies are homemade and melt in your mouth! The coffee, amazingly good as well! Collectively, 10 out of 10!!! We chatted with the owner for a few, which we enjoyed; come to find out he makes many of the delectable desserts! Check this charming cafe out! You won’t be disappointed!

The Little Sweet Cafe was a great experience each time I’ve been. It is small (hence the name) but with great lighting from the large windows. Limited space and intimate seating. The crepes, both savory and sweet, are great. Strawberry Nutella, salmon, curry chicken, roasted chicken all delicious. Serving staff seem a little stressed from the little space and keeping timed seating enforced but do a fine job serving.

The little sweet cafe was such a cute and tiny coffee shop. We had the strawberry and Nutella crêpe and it was excellent! We also ordered a vanilla lavender latte as well as a vanilla latte and both were very good. I just like sitting in this place for a little bit. And take taking a minute to eat a snack and have a coffee. The place was relatively clean, but part of the allure was it having some cute pictures and knickknacks. The customer service was excellent and our server was great. There is seating indoors and they do have a sign up about time limits if there are others waiting. They also have a sign up about no computers in the coffee shop. Makes sense since it’s so small and has limited seating. Overall, a thumbs up.

I always try to be honest in my reviews, and I wanted to share my experience from this past Sunday. The food and the atmosphere were great, but what truly made my visit special was the barista, Veronika. She was incredibly friendly and attentive, and it made the whole experience so much better. I’m saying this because I’ve worked in a coffee shop myself, and I can tell when someone is doing their job well. Unfortunately, I’ve visited on other days when different staff members were working, and I can’t say the same about them. They didn’t even smile, and I didn’t feel welcomed at all during those visits.

Indeed a cute lil sweet cafe! The ambiance was so cozy and perfect for a weekend snack. We got a savory crepe and loved it, the dough texture was 100% perfect. The drinks were ok though, cortado sort of average and the pumpkin chai latte was so extremely sweet that I couldn’t drink it and they ended up making me another drink free of charge, which was nice of them

It's literally a little sweet cafe. Very romantic, cozy, with some rustic feel. The hot chocolate is delicious. The Nutella crepe is delicious. It's perfect for a quick date. Only downside is it can get cramped easily if there are a few other patrons inside.

Love the Nova Salmon Savory Crepe! The ingredients taste very fresh and the combination was perfect (delicious!). Also, we had the Sweet Lemon Crepe the flavor was very good but not very filling. We order two cappuccino they were amazing! They have pastries. The place is cute, cozy & small! Love the atmosphere in here! There is a few indoor seating. All the staff are very friendly!

I passed this cafe while I was on my way to find a suit and needed a cold drink as soon as possible as it was a stroking hot day. I pulled up my google map cafe list and there popped this sweet delight. I headed inside quick and found myself scattered onto the different type of pastries they had, but finally was able to settle on getting their delightful persian jewel. I paired that with a nice iced latte. I’d have to say the coffee and pastry definitely did hit and were very neatly made; which make my whole shopping experience after much more pleasant and refreshing. Overall this cafe seemed like a nice on the run cafe that served and definitely would come back here again!

Great cappuccino, crepe, and service. Music isn't too loud, perfect for reading. Will be coming back

Such a cute and aesthetic spot! I love how the cafe is tucked away among vining leaves and the cozy decor. It is a very small and tight space, though, so it can be hard to find seating. There is also a 45-minute period to eat and leave, and a no computer policy. The brunch menu is somewhat small and definitely pricey for what you get. I tried the savory roasted chicken crepe ($23), which had chicken, goat cheese, and spinach. The chicken was dry and not super flavorful, though the goat cheese added a lot! I also unfortunately didn't taste the Persian saffron. I did really enjoy the crepe wrap, which was flavorful. I was a bit hungry after finishing the crepe. The service was friendly and fast. There's a water dispenser which is self-serve, and you order at the counter / take a number placard back to your seat. I would come back in the future to get a coffee and catch up with a friend in a lovely ambient space, but wouldn't necessarily come for the food.

Could cozy get even cozier? I think not. Literally -- while all the greenery both inside and outside the cafe certainly set the scene for a picturesque garden getaway near Downtown Brooklyn, know that real estate realities are also a factor in this cafe's coziness, for better or for worse. I loved the ambiance, the curry chicken crepe, and the company, though I couldn't help but think that this place would be a nightmare on weekends. We stopped by on a Wednesday morning for a late breakfast, thinking that it would be easier to snag a table that way. Little did I know that it was already packed inside (admittedly a fairly easy feat considering that there are only a handful of tables inside). We hovered by the outdoor seating, desperately hoping that someone would finish their meals by the time ours were ready. Perhaps dining here is a test of altruism as you're asked to keep your meals to 45 minutes. Most of the dishes here are Persian-inspired. The curry chicken crepe comes with house roasted chicken, grapes, scallions, walnuts. Expect Brooklyn prices (it was $22) but as more of a brunch dish, it was enough to tide me over until the evening. They open at 7:30 AM on weekdays and at 8:30 AM on weekends, so maybe the prospect of dining at this beautiful Parisian-looking but Persian-tasting cafe without feeling like someone is breathing down your neck is enough to convince you to wake up early?

what an adorable spot! this little cafe is a great spot to grab a coffee or a sweet treat. they have limited seating, but the vibe inside is cozy and sweet

Such a cute spot to grab brunch in the area! It's a super cozy spot that feels like you're at Grandma's house. The food was solid- nothing to complain about. It wasn't entirely memorable though so I wouldn't go out of my way to come here. There's only a handful of tables inside and outside. However, turnaround did seem pretty quick while we were there.

I took my fellow Yelpers advice and skipped the chain coffee to try "The Little Sweet Cafe," and boy am I glad that I did. The Crepe was one of the best if not the best crepe I've ever had. It was perfect. The Cappuccino was excellent as well. The staff was very friendly and very efficient. The place is tiny but I sat outside which was really cool. Highly recommend this spot!

Great food, cozy atmosphere and super friendly staff. Yes it is small and it probably is best to go during the week. A good variety of sweet and savory food plus excellent coffee drinks. It was a great find and good for both a full breakfast or a coffee and grab and go danish. Highly recommended

This is the cutest foresty cafe! The decor is a eclectic and very New York with the exposed brick walls (tbh even the bathrooms were decent which is how you know the place is well kept and nice). The service was very nice and didn't take too long. The staff were friendly but they did forget my coffee order and I had to remind them. We got crepes which were good but not amazing. One mixed berry crepe we got was missing the blue berries which was sad. The crepes are definitely the thing to get! Coffee was definitely good. Can't go wrong here's the dirty chai was good and the red eye was STRONG in terms of caffeine.

This place is a gem of a little cafe in the heart of Brooklyn.. surrounded on the outside by awesome herbs, plants, fig trees. A canopy of love. The inside is quaint and small, small pictures of cabins and mountains. The food has a Persian twist by the owner who takes so much heart in the food he prepares. Everything we had to eat was awesome. Done. He said he was shutting down... NOT!

Since moving to the neighborhood this is our favorite place. The curry crepe is a MUST, and quality has not changed we have ordered many times. The salmon is runner up. We also love the strawberry salad. Sitting inside or out the service is impeccable, everyone is always friendly. The owner is always there which is a testament to how much he cares. He's either washing the windows, interacting with customers or doing heavy lifting in the kitchen. Even though it's small there is always a seat available. Really a gem.

I like the flavor of the crepes however you only get one crepe for a price of 2or 3. The place is small but ambience is good. They should work on their customer service skills a little more. I also tried their Persian shakahuka which tasted nothing like the authentic one and was overly spiced. Overall it's a one time to visit place.

I go here pretty much every Saturday for my weekly sweet treat. The crepes are really good, and cinnamon is my usual go to. The Service is very friendly, owner is also usually in store helping out whenever I'm there. It is a little small and can get busy but they do have outdoor seating as well. Not a working cafe due to the limited seating capacity but a very ambient and cute cafe to get a drink and treat for yourself. In terms of drinks, they do run a little sweet, the chai is especially a bit too sweet for myself but I love getting a Latte, iced or hot. Overall love this place and has become a part of my routine!

The Little Sweet Cafe is a cute and charming brunch spot with lovely decor that immediately catches your eye. However, be aware that it's a tiny place with only a handful of tables, and they enforce a 45-minute seating limit. Many people preferred takeout due to the limited seating. During our visit, we indulged in some baked goods, including a blueberry muffin, tahini cookie, and chocolate croissant. In addition, we got the sweet lemon crepe and coffee. The baked goods and coffee were excellent. However, our experience with the lemon crepe was just okay. The crepe had a strong egg flavor, overshadowing the lemon taste, which left us a bit disappointed. Nevertheless, this spot is definitely worth a visit for its charming ambiance.

Super cute cafe! It's pretty small inside but if you can get a seat it's so charming to have coffee and some food. My wife got the scramble crepe and I got a latte and ham and cheese croissant and we really enjoyed it!

Great hidden gem!!! The food is amazing and the decor is eclectic and fun. The dining area is tiny but they have some sidewalk seating. It's counter service but the folks that run this place could not be more friendly. If you're in the area, stop in, you won't regret it!

Lovely & cozy place We had Chai Latte and it was delicious I feel like i am in Europe in this place

My friend and I rolled up on a rainy Saturday noon for some crepes. I was aghast at the prices! $19 for a smoked ham crepe? Even in Manhattan, that would come out to ~$15. My friend ordered a small hot chocolate and was shocked that it was $5. The only thing we ordered that was reasonable was the raspberry financier, which was $3.50. The food and drink were all very good, with balanced flavor, but I would not return for this price point. I did notice they posted a 45 min seating limit, and we were kicked out 35 min after receiving all of our food (seated for a total of 60 minutes) for "other customers," even though there was no one waiting in line, so it's definitely not a cafe to sit at if you want to properly catch up with friends.

What better way to start off a Sunday than with a strawberry Nutella crepe?! The little sweet cafe lives up to its name: little albeit serving fresh (but sweet) eats in a cozy atmosphere that makes you feel like you're in a hidden garden. We were only visiting Brooklyn for the weekend but if we ever return, this place is a must to revisit. Show these guys some love!

A very cute little place, went with a friend and it was an intimate and semi-rustic vibe. Employees were friendly and the mocha I got was creamy and slightly more bitter than I'm used to but was still a very welcome relief on a cold cold day. Would totally come back here again if I was in the area!

Such a cute little place that is named appropriately. My husband and I shared the smoked ham crepe and the sweet lemon crepe. Both were phenomenal! Others at the table had a variety of sandwiches, crepes and baked food. Everything was amazing. The owner was so accommodating to help us seat a large party and kept checking to ensure we had everything we needed and that we were satisfied with the food and experience. This is a place I would go to regularly if I lived in the area.

The spot is very quaint and rustic, with very nice outdoor and indoor space for seating. Met the owner, and as a True small businessman he cares about each visitors commentary. The staff, very nice and pretty warm personalities, and the female taking my order was very receptive to my questions as to her preferences. She even went to the extent to suggest different dishes dependant on my day. The Food (the biggest ticket to success): the almond chocolate croissant (from someone who enjoys chocolate croissants 4 days a week) excellent. Absolutely a chocolate dish to make the day a very good start. The shashookah was supposedly a Persian variety and it was one of those dishes that immediately became a must have once a week. Thankyou for a great start of the day.

Love to stop by here on my way to work and grab a crepe and coffee. Everything is always on point and service is very polite. I can see why a lot of people think it's cute inside. I always take everything to go so I never sit down. Good strong coffee and dessert.

I can understand others' experiences at Little Sweet because it is a really tiny cafe and can be super chaotic, but I've had really great experiences here and continue to return. The food and drinks are on the pricy side and when treating friends, it's easy to rack up a bill here, which is why we save visits for treat times! There's something about their iced chai that is so delicious, so I find myself ordering that and adding a shot of espresso. They always have a great assortment of pastries and each one I've tried has been delicious. I highly recommend the spinach and feta pastry if they have it, but the ham and cheese croissant is delicious as well. The baristas here are always super nice as well - always greeting you with a smile and so happy to serve you. The ambiance in here is lovely as well. I love the twinkle lights and many plants. One thing to note is Little Sweet is truly little - the seating is limited to a handful of tables inside and outside. No laptops allowed and there is a seating limit. Come when you want a quick bite and move on. I will definitely return to Little Sweet again and again!

The owner very rude, what type of cafe has no computers allowed. I understand it's a small place and they don't want customers hogging a table. Would not recommend this place

We had such a wonderful experience here! I brought my mom who is gluten free and dairy free and when we asked, they made her special crepe batter from scratch! They were so sweet and accommodating and the food was delicious!

Definitely my favorite breakfast spot in downtown Brooklyn. This place has terrific crepes and a cute little outdoor seating area. The curry chicken was delicious, and the coffee was solid. My only very minor complaint is a couple acorns fell from the trees outside onto my head haha, but that's hardly a big deal. This place is nice for a cute breakfast date, just a casual hang with a friend, or even just a nice place to eat alone. Staff are always friendly and service is quick too!

I've been wanting to visit @thelittlesweetcafe since I moved around there. I finally did and liked it a lot! The almond croissant was pretty dense and very filling. The cappuccino was not too milky but allowed me to taste the bitterness of the espresso which I like. Also the decor and vibes are just so cute!

Little Sweet Cafe is the perfect date spot. It's the coziest cafe, with coffee that's the tops, savory sandwiches and crepes for any occasion (read: ALL occasions), and wine. This venue isn't laptop friendly and that's a Good Thing. Note that they're the size of a breadbox. Even with the outdoor seating! Support your local business and feed yourself! It's a win-win. Get yourself the Florentine sandwich and pick up wine too ($15/bottle). Did I say wine too? Get TWO bottles.

Favorite stop in Brooklyn! Went for a walk and decided to stop in for some breakfast. Liked the atmosphere and the no computer policy! I got the ham crème as it was recommended by the server and it was so good! The chai was so flavorful and the almond croissant was unlike anything I have ever had. So good and highly recommend!

The food was good but so expensive And they limit your dining time to 45 minutes which is insane given the price of the food.... Interior is pretty, though! Would be nice for working or reading for a short while

I really wanted to like this cafe but it was trash. + took 20+ mins to receive the smoked ham crepe which had no seasoning. Extremely bland for almost $20. + the iced tea that I ordered, they didn't have at the time so the guy gave me another iced tea (I think it was jasmine) which did not taste good at all. + the small table I was sitting at had water all over the bench across from it (near the inside front window) - the man made it a point to tell me I had to move my purse from the free chair next to me - saw the huge water puddle on the bench - did nothing to clean it). Interesting. + the young lady who was serving was nice and I appreciate her hard work bcuz she was actually being friendly to customers. -- overall: not sure if I'd return because the food didn't taste good, took way too long and wasn't worth the $$$.

Really cute little cafe - no pun attended; sitting inside and out; friendly staff... Drinks: almond milk latte and almond milk Cortado. Both espresso drinks were good. Smooth finish and right balance between espresso and milk; only nit is that the top of each drink had a micro foam which I haven't seen before on either drinks at cafes. Would have expected that velvety finish. Food: went light and got the spinach cheese pastry. I thought it was really good and a nice pairing with the Cortado. Nice touch by the cafe to warm it up as it came out crispy... only nit it was that it was a bit on the oily (or greasy) side. Just one other comment - our table had the previous patrons plate and cup on the table when we sat down. They removed them when they brought our food and drinks out. Overall I would go here again and try the happy hour. They serve wine, beer, and mimosa!

Loved this place so much! Delicious food, great service, and it was so beautifully decorated and cozy. Will definitely be back!

Adorable LITTLE spot. LITTLE! Great coffee and service and art. Wish I could come here every day!

Beautiful little spot! Visited this gem and the service was great, she modified my order with no problem and the crepes came out amazing.

Because I'm little and sweet, I wanted to visited a place just like me... jk. But for real, I wanted a place to eat something substantial as the place I had planned on going to was shut down due to covid prevention. So after my errands, I looked for a place nearby for a bite to eat. So I ended up at this cafe. My first thoughts were that it was cute and quaint (hence living up to its name). There was 1 person in the cafe enjoying a crepe while there were 2 people outside talking with what I assume was coffee. As you might tell by one of the photos, this is a cafe that does not allow computers in use. While I don't know if it is for outside too but it makes sense due to its small space to keep people coming for space. Because I had opted for an indoor visit, they had asked for my id and my vaccine card. I didn't know it was such a crepe heavy place until I arrived. I wasn't mad at it because I have not had a crepe in a while. I opted for sweet crepe through a banana Nutella crepe and added an orange juice mimosa. The mimosa wasn't too orange juice heavy but balanced enough for an afternoon treat. The crepe was sweet as promised with enough banana and Nutella to make it worth it. I had a nice time. The bathroom was perfectly clean. Though I can't come here for work (because laptop), I could come here for a quick bite by myself or with a friend or date. I do regret not getting a savory crepe so maybe I will next time.

Hit this little gem up three times while in Brooklyn. Sat in the window nook each time and the space was so therapeutic to be in. Yummy dirty chai lattes and macchiatos. Tried all the crepes - can't go wrong. Aurora was present each day we came in and her presence matches her name - vibrant and inviting. Thank you for welcoming our small family to Brooklyn for the first time :)

When they named this cafe, "The Little Sweet Cafe," they really meant it. Had just left a small interior design convention in the area and needed some breakfast and here I was. Excellent coffee, delicious crepes. I ordered a lemon cinnamon crepe! Sat down outside on a beautiful day. Couldn't get better than this! I will be back.

I really like this cafe. It's smaller than I thought so I was glad that a couple tables were open so my family and I could fit. Only sitting room for about 10-12 people in total inside. Must show vaccine proof to dine in. My father and I had the smoked ham crepe - awesome! The crepe itself was soft and tasty, the cheese and arugula and egg inside was a great combination. Perfect breakfast. Other people in our party had pastries that were well enjoyed. My latte was decent. Coffee was good.

The breakfast was delicious! Great coffee, friendly service. I highly recommend this place for breakfast/brunch

Came here for breakfast. Got the spinach and pesto savory crepe. so good! Also ordered a chai latte with oat milk. Quite enjoyable. Friendly service and cute spot. Not a lot of seating but they also have tables outside.

My hubby and I did a quick weekend away to Brooklyn! We love to walk and support local. We found this hidden treasure as we were walking to find another place and stopped in. So glad we did...food was delicious, staff friendly, super quaint atmosphere and great people watching!!!

Almond croissant and iced matcha was extra bland and not worth it, would not come here again.

Cute little place to grab lunch or a crepe snack with a couple of tables outside on the sidewalk. We had one of the crepes for lunch and another sweet one for a little dessert. Service is efficient and crepes of course are made to order. Not a destination type of place but super convenient to the Hilton hotel and the subway line.

Went to this coffee shop and ordered a cappacinno, got this half full no foam burning out beverage. Also it was way too expensive. Basically $6 for a dangerously hot black coffee with some milk in it. They gotta train their bariatas much better. Sheesh.

Very happy we scored an outside table on a Sunday breakfast. The iced chai with oat milk was delicious. We had a strawberry Nutella crepe and a banana Nutella crepe and they were both very good. Friendly workers and cute spot. Only downside is the cost. Chai latte, coffee, and two sweet crepes ran about $40. Worth it for special times though.

Not sure if I've ever been so in love with a cafe before! The Little Sweet Cafe is quaint, homey, and delicious. Everything I'd hoped for based on the name. To paint you a picture: you can grab a seat in the nook by the front window for prime people watching or just a cozy spot with the sunlight draping over you while you read. Or snag a seat at the side bar with the mirror in front of you to watch yourself as you eat, if that's more your style. They serve their drinks in glasses, have paper straws, have a no laptop policy, and serve up some reaaaally good savory and sweet crepes (among other items). My group had an array of crepes but my favorite by far was the banana Nutella. Absolutely delicious. They also have a happy hour with wine and beer and I'm dying to come back for that alone. Love this place so much!

This cafe has too many rules. First one I noticed was 45 minutes rule. I see from the reviews people get kicked out 35 minutes after receiving their food. How does anyone properly have a good time with friends in 45 minutes at a cafe? I understand this is a small place, but this is way too much. Also there are no laptop rule, no credit card below 5$ rule, no pets rules. I wouldn't go to this place again. I don't want to be kicked out in the middle of my conversation while having a cafe. Just too inconvenient for me.

I just got back to Texas after spending the week in NY. Stayed in Brooklyn. Made a few visits to the Little Sweet Cafe, and enjoyed both visits very much. The young lady behind the register was charming and polite, and the coffee was good. BUT. The reason I'm writing this review, which I rarely do, is that they have this almond chocolate croissant that will haunt my dreams until my next trip to NYC. I ate a lot of phenomenal food in NY and am a foodie - and somehow that damned croissant was the best food I ate all week! It doesn't make sense, and it shouldn't be this way, but it is. If they don't bake these, kudos to whoever does. Also, I love the 'no laptops' policy. Maybe it's to keep people from squatting all day, but I like to think it's to encourage communication. Anyways, I had to leave this review - partially for myself to ensure I visit The Little Sweet Cafe every time I'm in NYC!
