    Waiter was great. Food and ambience were good. Quiet since we were virtually the only ones there around lunchtime. I would gladly return. M

    Our family of 8 had a great Fathers Day Brunch. We sat in the back garden. I was worried it would be unpleasant given the poor weather but it was perfect. The menu is varied enough to please all including 2 young children. The waffles with various toppings are a hit and the mussels are delicious. The servers were all friendly and efficient.

    Excellent service and good food at BCafe! Members of my group arrived late and BCafe was gracious in extending our reservation time. Would definitely go back!

    It took 45 minutes for food to arrive. We asked that the bill be split in two. Both of us had Amex cards, which they did not differentiate, so we didn’t know what to do, because only 1 of us was paying the tip. Good food. Sloppy management

    Tasty food, moderate pricing, a nice enclosed garden - a perfect neighborhood spot. Burgers are great, yummy waffles, excellent mussels (of course).
