On par with the neighborhood’s hipster reputation, Le Crocodile dishes out some of the most exciting French-inspired brunch in Williamsburg. Helmed by the chefs behind Greenpoint’s beloved Chez Ma Tante, Le Crocodile specializes in expertly-executed French cuisine.

The restaurant attracts stylish New Yorkers to the spacious dinning room every night of the week, but there’s something special about the brunch menu, incredible dishes like eggs with blistered tomatoes and basil pistou rubs elbows with Croque Madames and airy gouda quiche, this place is a foodie’s haven.

Warm and inviting, Le Crocodile is a great place for a first date brunch in Williamsburg. Especially if you’re trying to impress, the restaurant is stunning and the service is top-notch.

While everything on the menu is tempting, I recommend ordering the French onion soup and steak frites. They’re absolutely delicious (worth a detour alone). Plus, the attentive service and a impeccable wine selection makes it perfect for celebrating big moments.
