Le Café Big Trouble, a monument for the best parts of Myrtle-Broadway in an otherwise pastoral morning environ. Delightful, full of juxtaposition. Their coffee gives enough vituperance to walk all the way back to Bushwick, & their food will fill you happily for the ride.

Don't really understand the praise for this place. Firstly, the service was bad/non-existent, but it's set up such that you have to pay & tip upfront before you realize this.

We waited about 35 minutes for 2 orders of the'big breakfast', & the place wasn't that busy. It was very salty, eggs were runny, & it had that cheap lard taste to it (you know, where you feel a bit sick after eating it). Also, they have music blasting first thing in the morning, it's honestly a bit much when you're waking up.

Came here for brunch while visiting family a few weeks ago. It was super delicious!! Absolutely loved those pancakes--still dreaming of them. The portion sizes are pretty generous, so be prepared for that!

The staff made the vibe great, but some of the decor is an interesting choice (the mural haha)

Ordered an avocado toast & I was surprised with the size. It was quite big but very delicious!
The service was great & you can tell the staff have a lot of fun working here.
Atmosphere is fun, music is very 2000's throw backs.
