baba cool
baba cool is a local Fort Greene favorite known for its Brooklyn charm and unfussy food. Now a few doors down from our original location, we’re less of a coffee-shop and more of a local spot for day-to-night dining. Whether you’re stopping in for coffee or staying for our natural wines and a quick-bite, we like that we're a bit of a hidden-gem for dining and drinks in Fort Greene.
By day, baba cool is a laid-back café serving coffee, brunch, and a vegetable-forward menu featuring fresh salads, hearty bowls, and tasty, health-conscious options that Brooklynites love. As night falls, the lights dim and we transform into a casual dining destination with our new night menu, perfect for sharing small plates, carafes of wine, and cocktails on Happy Hour with friends.
Looking for pre-theater dining near BAM or a laidback spot to unwind after exploring Fort Greene Park? baba cool has you covered. Just around the block from Brooklyn's cultural landmarks, our new location offers spacious indoor and outdoor seating that is ideal for post-event drinks, casual brunch, and hosting your private events. We take pride in creating a welcoming atmosphere that feels like home, no matter the occasion.
We are dedicated to serving our Fort Greene community with locally-sourced ingredients, gluten-free, and vegetarian-friendly options alongside our popular wines on-tap. There’s something for everyone at baba cool, we promise! (the baba fries are a crowd-pleaser)
Whether you’re a local or a first-time visitor, baba cool is the perfect blend of good food, good drinks, and good vibes. With a seasonal menu, full bar, and cozy ambiance, our space is designed for good times :)
