About Café Paulette
Café Paulette is the original full-service French restaurant from the team behind Petit Paulette, a Fort Greene fixture that runs as a daytime cafe with serious French breakfast and lunch service before transitioning into a proper bistro for dinner. The morning coffee program is a real strength: espresso, café au lait, and proper milk drinks paired with French pastries baked in-house. The space is generous and considered, with the kind of warm, unfussy French bistro energy that makes it work for both quick coffee runs and longer working sessions over breakfast. The food side leans seasonal French: quiches, sandwiches, hot plates, and the wine program is strong if you stay through the dinner hour. A genuine neighborhood institution.
