Skal - Brooklyn

So many options! This was the perfect place t bring our toddler who likes to try one of everything. We also learned they had a work from Skal option when you spend at least $17 which is super easy if you work all day. The vibe was great and everyone who worked there felt like family. The banana bread French toast was to die!

This is my favorite cafe in Bedstuy. Such a lovely mission, beautiful people making really intentional tasty food, in a beautiful space. My only wish is for them to be open more often!

Very friendly team and great service, good vibes, great coffee/ tea options with a variety of enjoyable food options. The sweet potato fries were great!

This place is very nice. It's been on my boyfriend's list for awhile now. The banana bread French toast was to die for. I still think about it everyday. The owner is very nice. She came up to us while we were dining and made sure we didn't feel pressured to leave once we finished our meals, as a lot of places do make you feel like you need to leave right away. She made us feel welcomed. The coffee was great! The staff overall was very nice, they helped us make decisions as we were very indecisive about what we wanted. Didn't rush us while we were ordering. The food came out pretty quickly. AND I could've fallen in love with the place based on the decor alone. It's very cozy. And just really well decorated.

Why would anyone open a business in Bed Stuy and allow their staff to treat customers with racism/disrespect? Went there with a friend to get coffee/tea and brunch and we rec 'd horrible service no eye contact, one word answers to our questions, we were told there was no tea available(? and only black coffee(?? , no sugar or sweetener or ice or any kind of milk, no way to customize our coffee. Strange. It seemed like the guy behind the counter just did not want to take our order. He kept busy rearranging things behind the counter. When we asked how much the coffees would be he said $5.50 each. For coffee we can 't even get milk and sugar in? The prices on the website are lower than that and there is a selection of coffees listed there too, as well as artisan tea (I guess the artisan was off that day? We left and ate elsewhere. There was a very weird passive aggressive maybe racist? (my friend said it was def racism vibe to the whole encounter. We were clearly not welcome and you know what? That 's fine because we are never coming back. I can get coffee (or tea the way I like it at any bodega for far less money and without being treated like s**t. Would give negative five stars if I could.
