About Cafe Calaca
Cafe Calaca is a Latin American cafe in Bed-Stuy with one of the better breakfast and brunch food programs in the neighborhood: empanadas, chilaquiles, breakfast burritos, and the kind of egg dishes that work for both quick weekday breakfasts and lingering weekend brunches. The coffee program runs on Variety Coffee beans, with espresso, lattes, cortados, and matcha rounded out by signature drinks like the Spicy Mocha and Coconut Maple Latte. The space is casual, warm, and built for community, a regular base of Bed-Stuy locals who use it for breakfast meetings, work sessions, and weekend brunches. The combination of strong coffee, real food, and an unpretentious atmosphere has made Calaca one of the more reliable local picks for any time of day.
