Located in the heart of Brooklyn's Crown Heights neighborhood, Lakou Cafe is named for the Haitian Creole word for "courtyard," and they fully embrace that concept of being a space for any needs, including dining, socializing, and working. A quaint sit-down cafe, they are open for breakfast, lunch, and dinner, featuring a multi-cuisine menu that includes sweet and savory crepes, omelettes, bagels, soups, salads, oatmeal bowls, and fresh Haitian patties and vegan pastries from local bakeries. Also a juice and smoothie bar, their drink selection offers creations made with fresh fruits, veggies, grains, and/or spices, as well as coffees, teas, and non-alcoholic kava cocktails. Be sure to check out their board for any daily specials and follow them on social media to learn about special events like movie nights, game nights, and art showcases. Take-out and delivery are available when you're eating on the go, or pull up a chair in Lakou Cafe's bright and inviting dining area to kick back for a while and take a breather from the bustling city.
