Le Grainne Cafe

Le Grainne Cafe is a small french cafe located at the corner of 9th Ave. and 21st Street. They have a full menu and outdoor seating in the summer.

The food at brunch was all pretty good, and the prices were amazing! Le Grainne Cafe offers some of the best value I've seen in Manhattan.

Dress

Brunch was pretty casual (as it usually is). Shorts and a t-shirt were just fine.

Cost

Breakfast items were approx. $8-$14.

Reservations

They don't take reservations, but we only had to wait around 20 mins. for our group of five when we visited at 1pm on a Sunday.

Items Ordered

L’Omelette

L’Omelette

I ordered the omelette with peppers, onions, and bacon. It was a pretty typical omelette. The salad had a light vinaigrette dressing on it but was otherwise fairly plain tasting. The potatoes were nicely baked and very soft, but also very salty.

French Toast

French Toast

I heard the french toast was one of the best items on the menu, so I was excited to try it. It was indeed fairly good, but not nearly as good as the french toast at Jane. The french toast came with some ham (that was pretty good and served hot), a small fruit salad, and the same salty potatoes as above. I thought the ham was a bit odd to include with the french toast, so I ate it with the potatoes and not the french toast.
