Athom Cafe opened a few weeks ago but its presence at 1096 Broadway in Bushwick makes it newsworthy enough to mention even at this point; as BushwickBK put it, “Bodegas and 99-cent stores come a dime a dozen here in the Washing Machine and Refrigerator District of Broadway, and cafés owned by real-life Parisians are more unexpected.” In fact, the cafe–which currently features salads, pastries, sandwiches and omelets may expand to full restaurant fare–is located in a former appliance store. Anyone been?

  1. I’ll probably be living here soon – but I’m not going to the Beauty Bar! I went to the one that opened in San Francisco — what, 20 years ago???????!!!! The nail polish fumes wrecked the drinks. You’d think the place would have blown up (since everyone was smoking).

  2. Yeah 11217 – the one in Manhattan is obnoxious.

    The one in Brooklyn is more low key and the crowd reflects the ‘newcomers’ in the neighborhood, and the fact there is a very popular performance space around the corner (Market Hotel)

  3. Hahah Mopar – a friend who lives off of Kosciusko insisted on going. It was actually fun. Really ‘interesting’ crowd.

    mmm thick cut bacon – wonder if it is as good as that bacon they have at Northeast Kingdom which is the bacon of zeus.
