The food is one of the best soul food I’ve had in NYC. The music was amazing and the booths were comfortable. Samantha was a great hostess and checked on us. I truly enjoyed my experience here.

I guess I shouldn’t be surprised that the cornbread was so good coming from a place called “Cornbread Brooklyn “

It was my family’s first time at Cornbread and we absolutely loved it! The chicken was well cooked and tender, the yams were just right, oh and the cornbread was on point. The service was excellent and so friendly! We will add this to our list to repeat!!!!!!!

I ordered the catfish with a side of macaroni and yams. Everything was amazing. The fish is made to order so it comes out HOT & CRUNCHY. Aside from the food the worker Jesus was amazing, very accommodating and super welcoming. I will definitely be back.

Cornbread Brooklyn is one of those spots you try once and immediately start planning your next visit. I’m still thinking about the cornbread. It was warm, soft, slightly sweet, and honestly some of the best I’ve ever had. I caught myself smiling at the table because it was just that good.

Server John recommended the catfish and it did not disappoint. John was welcoming and friendly. It was crispy with a light batter— moist in the center and fried perfectly. Unfortunately, they ran out of cornbread so I was given an extra side. Potato salad and Mac and cheese were both heavenly. Everything was well seasoned and I loved the flavors. Generous portions.

I was at work during lunchtime, and I wasn't quite sure what to eat near my job. I asked my sister, 'Hey, what should I eat?' I decided to check Uber Eats for something different. She asked, 'Do you want some soul food?' and I said yes. She recommended trying cornbread, so I gave it a shot, and I was hooked! I told myself I had to visit cornbread in person to see the atmosphere and experience the real hype. When I finally went to cornbread, I was so happy—everything was delicious! The environment was warm and inviting, and the music, a soulful mix of R&B and oldies, really set the mood. Kizzy, the young lady taking my order, was so friendly and delightful. This place truly has a cozy, family vibe, and I definitely look forward to going back a few more times. Let me not forget to mention that they have options you can eat inside or outside

I had an amazing experience during my visit! Sylvia was my server, and she was absolutely incredible. She was very polite, super fast with her service, and consistently checked in to make sure everything was perfect while I ate. I watched her clean tables and thoroughly sweep floors as soon as guests left—she was on top of everything! What really made her stand out was how persistent, humble, and genuinely caring she was.
