TLDR: Yes, worthy of the 5 stars.
Today was my first time experiencing Brooklyn Place and I must say that I am very pleased. Went in thinking it was just a Cafe and I wanted to support a local Cafe in my area of Reading, to my surprise it is a full restaurant. The staff is very polite and go above and beyond for their customers. Nice quiet place, comfortable atmosphere and plenty of parking in this shopping center.
My order was a large iced coffee, a veggie omelette with home fries, rye toast and a side of sausage. Total cost was $18 and some change.
Iced coffee: Best I have ever had. I have previously worked in cafes and Starbucks, also I am a coffee fiend, and try new places often. In my 37 years on this planet, I have never had an iced coffee this good. Just with cream and sugar. Veggie Omelette: Delicious, but a tad bit on the greasy side. Very fair with the ingredients/fillings, without being too dense, still fluffy. Home Fries: Soft, golden brown, seasoned cubes of joy. Very good. Personally I would like them fried just a little longer to give them a light crunch. Rye Toast and Sausage: Bagged Rye sandwich bread, not seeded. Basic, but honestly we don't need some fancy bread or anything like that. A thumbs up for the toast and sausage links.
Definitely will be coming back and bringing family. They got themselves a new...

I said NO with the list of stuff she wrote it all down . She still brang 2 sandwich’s with EVERYTHING mushrooms included . My son is allergic to mushrooms which is the main reason i specified NOT everything She was very upset and gave lots of attitude when i asked her to change it She brang it to the cook who also was upset Which made me very uncomfortable with them dealing with my food now .. they brang the food to the table and asked us if we we we were done She literally had just placed the plates on my table . This was a very bad experience and was very unwelcoming . On top of the fact they opened their sandwiches And they still had ALOT of peppers when i literally told her what to put on it . At that point i packed the sandwiches up paid for it and left . I will never...
Read moreService was ok. We ordered breakfast & lunch items & made sure to specify no meat with the breakfast orders. Unfortunately one of our breakfast orders was made incorrectly & had bacon on top. There was a language barrier with one of the workers & she didn’t understand when we asked which one was the omelet & which was just scrambled eggs (they looked very similar). We told them we’re vegetarian & sent it back, only for them to just take the bacon off of the top of the food. We could have done that ourselves! So we had to ask them to make it all over again. The food was really good! The mozzarella sticks came with a weird tasting sauce though. Not sure what it was. Service wasn’t that great. We had to keep calling the waitress over when we needed something. Our water cups were never refilled & no one checked on us after the...
