We met one of A's friends, who lives in Brooklyn, for brunch at Shane's. It's a tiny restaurant. When I first entered I wasn't sure I was going to feel comfortable there. I have this whole mental malfunction about being in the way, or my wheelchair taking up too much space. (Thanks, family!) But once the staff figured out how to open the double doors so I could get into the dining room everything was fine.We visited Shane's on our second day in the city and were, unfortunately, running low on funds (the hotel hit us with an unexpected $200 security deposit when we checked in), so I just had a coffee, which was delicious. That's saying a lot because I just realized that I don't like most coffee. At home I use flavored creamers, and still end up pouring most of it out, so I stopped drinking it. Shane's coffee was delicious with sugar and cream.Jeremy had a bacon, egg and cheese sandwich which was very good. And also probably the cheapest item on the menu at $8.We split the check, and the rest of our party had more extravagant meals and cocktails, which they all seemed to enjoy. We found it odd that even though we split the check, it still came on one bill. I've never seen that before, and it caused us some confusion.We had a great time. The staff was pleasant. I was surprised that there weren't any bagels on the menu though.

3.5 star rating.....The phone nor the website to make a reservation was working. Inefficient..... 20 min wait when we arrived for brunch. Not unreasonable but annoying nonetheless. Although an A grade, the place needs to be renovated and a deep cleaning. Esthetically it is lacking big time. The service was slow and inattentive. Asked if they could sell the drink special in a pitcher (like all the other mimosas). Instead of coming back and stating they could not and we would have picked a different drink that does come in a pitcher they just came back with the drink specials without giving us the opportunity to confirm our drink order. Our food and drinks were served AFTER others who arrived after us. They need more staff and need to polish up the entire service and esthetics. Having to pull up to a window to even ask for a table and deal with an apathetic hostess was also off putting. Having said all of that, the food is a solid 3.5 maybe even 4 star.

I always wanted to try chicken and waffles but always thought the combination would be very weird. Well, Shane's changed my mind. The cinnamon waffles are BOMB and the fried chicken is very seasoned.The mimosa aren't worth it to me. It was my first time trying it and it was a 6/10. Only downside the size of the place is very small. It's no privacy to speak or even move around if need be. Other than that Shane's will always be my spot to get chicken and waffles 1000/10Btw- perfect place to carry out food comes pipping hot. A lot of food for the price.

They were able to accommodate a party of 13 on the whim just like that. Loved that . Customer service A plus. Everyone was so polite smiled and warm. Our serve was awesome. We did the 50 dollar unlimitedMimosa and I had the strawberry flavor. It was delicious. I loved that you can mix and match. I ordered chicken and waffles as the menu was limited with the unlimited mimosas. It was a lot of food. The food was good and fresh. I tasted someone's home fries. Best home fries I've ever had. Area was clean. Close to train station and bus.

It's okay! When for brunch with a friend. It was about a 25min wait (went around 1:30pm on a Saturday). The ambiance is cool. Music was really good. The service was very bare min. Think I only interacted with the server during ordering and picking up the check. The food was not good at all. The fried chicken was over fried and the French toast bread taste old. Will give them another try one day to see if my experience is consistent.

This is my second time here and I always forget to review it. Cozy family friendly spot with great prices. I didn't get the best picture but the food was good! Hot and fresh. Me and a friend did the $50 unlimited mimosas and entree for one hour. We had pineapple, mango and strawberry. You will feel it so be careful lolIt can get pretty busy so get there early in, before 12. Service is friendly and I always enjoy their music.

A black owned business, this is one I can appreciate and enjoy because the food is authentic and tastes delicious, from the first bite to the last bite.Look no further if you want some Harlem-style soul food. Nice sized portions, and I will say it again, the food is absolutely delicious.The chicken and waffles are a great place to start. First off, the chicken fry is fabulous and it starts burning off your fingers immediately. That is a great sign of a good fry. Not only that, but it has great seasoning and spice. The chicken itself is moist and has great flavor. Oh yeah, get dark meat. I did. That works best with this waffle.The waffle is great too, but it is a little too sweet. I ate this meal so fast to almost forgot to mention it. Two hunky pieces of chicken and four sweet triangles of tasty goodness and this is a solid brunch spot.Everybody is so nice. The wait staff, to the busboys, to the customers asking what you think of the food. It might be a small restaurant, but it works well being that it knows what it is and does not try to be anything more. To prevent fraud, they do ask for ID if you pay with a credit card. This was nothing more than what you would do at a bar. Do not read into the check too seriously.I would return for breakfast, brunch, or lunch.

I expected better. We stopped by on a snowy Monday morning. Ordered the French toast with beef bacon. My wife had a spinach omelette, with roasted potatoes. The potatoes were the best part of the breakfast. The seating area is really small. I doubt we'll be back. Maybe we should've ordered the waffles. They have the best reviews. The service was decent.

What a hidden gem. Looking for a quick, good breakfast in Brooklyn we were routed to Shanes. We started off as the only guests there that morning but the teeny upstairs of the restaurant with only 6-7 tables quickly filled up. The food was good and plentiful although we were all confused as to why a side salad automatically came with an early morning breakfast. While I love me a salad, I prefer it later on in the day.The breakfast burrito was huge, the home fries were crisp and well seasoned and the mimosas were strong. Shanes was definitely a good Brooklyn choice!

Came here many years ago when they originally opened but was in the area and felt for some grits and if you look up brunch spots with good grits they come up as one of the number 1 locations so I popped in to check them out. The food was good, the grift was good to the level which I like them so that was a one for me. Shrimp very flavorful and paired well with my grits. The eggs and French toast were good also. Our server was on point but it feels weird going downstairs to dine it's like walking to the basement for brunch. Dining area would be nice if it was open on the main floor. I would recommend others to try but I am not sure if the seating set up is the best to attract customers.
