Carol's Cafe - New York

Great value good food in restful surroundings. Enjoyed French toast, pancakes and bacon.

Incredible! Tucked away, with a beautiful waterfall and quaint seating, Carol's is a hidden gem! The food is so reasonable and absolutely delicious. Went for Essa-Bagel and the line was too long. Walked a half a block and got better food for cheaper! Absolutely will be coming here again.

So I came here for brunch and I'd say the location is the biggest redeeming part about the cafe. It's next to this gorgeous waterfall-super relaxing and definitely a hidden gem in bustling NYC. But I got the chicken wrap, which was pretty disappointing. Also, I didn't know it came with cheese and mayonnaise, neither of which I like or can eat a ton of since I'm lactose intolerant (and it wasn't in the menu description). So I was not happy about that. My friend got the vanilla cinnamon French toast, which he said was pretty good, but the toast squares were kind of small. Coffee was a little watery-they don't have milk substitutes either. Though prices were decent, I'll come back for the environment, but not necessarily for the food..

Beautiful spot right by the waterfall, pleasant getaway with good and reasonably priced food

Had the buttermilk pancakes, they were light and fluffy and a total steal for $7-8 bucks!
