When you are having that craving for Belgian waffles, come to Second Stop Café in Williamsburg, Brooklyn. They serve them made to order with sweet butter and Vermont Maple syrup and they are delectable! But come before noon, otherwise you will have to fight for a seat! Sometimes locals crowd up the place with or without laptops so be prepared to settle for a bench seat outside (don’t worry, it gets a refreshing breeze amongst the Ainslie street side shade).
They serve Stumptown coffee all day long and all baked goods are made in house by Merrin Frazier. We hear that the donut muffin is amazing.
For lunch you can grab a homemade mozzarella, tomato, basil, and balsamic vinegar sandwich or one of their special daily salads. The one I saw sounded outstanding: kale, lemon, carrot, cucumber, sea salt, olive oil, scallions, and tomato with raspberry vinaigrette ($7).
We recommend this place for the same reason that others love it: fresh air, music, Johnny Depp's old fireplace, a community feeling, and great coffee. This plus the old books and carpets all give you a feeling of culture and comfort.
Second Stop Café is located at 524 Lorimer, at the corner of Ainslie. Take the L Train to Lorimer. (718)486-6850
