Holy moly - Needless to say the food was delicious, the drinks were strong and pleasantly priced, and the restaurant itself is so cute. I'm most thankful for the girl who answered my call when I made a reservation. They didn't have the time my friends and I needed at first, but we placed a late reservation anyway. She quickly called me back when she received a cancellation to move us up for our convenience. I wish I remembered her name. Thank you so much!!

My fiance and I loved our brunch this morning at The Common!! We ended up in the area after our morning run and chose The Common due to all of the delicious items on the menu and strong reviews.There were a few tables open upon arrival, but it seems like a popular neighborhood spot and very family friendly. We chose to share an appetizer (chips and dip) along with the Inside Out Truffle Bun. Both were delicious, with the Truffle bun being my favorite. The flavors melded in the best way, particularly the housemade bacon jam which was perfection. Chips and dip were solid too, though I would recommend ordering for a larger group since the dip was quite rich!We are already looking forward to coming back to try more of their dishes... everything coming out of the kitchen looked amazing!

Cute find but out of the way, worth a visit if you're in the area! 4th Avenue is not exactly set up, as a brunch spot... this area still needs to ramp up, if they want the park slope vibe. The Common has another location in the Bay Ridge and it's pretty good. We tried the Park Slope location for an early Mother's Day brunch... and it was pretty good. We enjoyed the food and the staff are nice. We got eggs Benedict, eggs pastrami hash, eggs over waffle and a "in the skillet" dish called the Lebanese stew.... all the dishes are decent... the skillet dish, is like a tomato based with potatoes and sausages and 3 poached eggs. It was very heavy for brunch... and we couldn't finish. Felt like it was missing some punch in taste... it was quite bland. We also got the chicken liver spread with pita... this was such a disappointing dish. The chicken liver, if done right... it's smooth, silky and can be fantastic. However - the common failed at this delivery... it was so gamey... and thick... and just not good. Don't get this if you cannot do strong liver taste. Cappuccino and latte, decent. Overall, we enjoyed our brunch. #yelpinginbrooklyn#brooklyneats

I heard how popular this place was for brunch and was worried when we entered that there was a long a wait but thankfully we got seats immediately without a reservation. I ordered an eggs Benedict with fried chicken - it came with roasted potatoes and a salad. I was so sad when the chicken had no flavor and was way too dry. The best part of this meal was the roasted potatoes :( .

This is for the service who sucks. The short brown haired girl wearing the baggy jeans. It's the second time I've ordered the sausage and grits and she's gotten it wrong. I'm the sucker because the food is so good I came back after getting screwed last time, but when I asked for a side of grits and they don't do a side, just tell me so I'm not paying $18 for a bowl of grits. Like Jesus. Communications skills.

We checked this place out for a late brunch one rainy Sunday. Looks can be deceiving as from the outside, this place looks like a small chain restaurant but instead it's a chill, industrial, cozy spot! Great menu with a ton of options. Service was relaxed but attentive.We split the humus ($12) to start which was delicious and a good portion of pita. I got the smoke salmon toast with poached egg ($16) which was delicious and tasted super flavorful. Others got the omelettes and breakfast sandwiches which were also super fresh and delicious. I got a side of fries for my son and they were the shoestring kind- the best! Definitely recommend this spot.

Made a reservation for mother's day brunch at The Common. I loved the vibe and service, it was very relaxed and we didn't feel rushed. I tried the pulled pork eggs benedict which was outstanding. Perfectly poached eggs, tender pulled pork, and the potatoes were golden brown and crispy. My mom had the lox over toast but subbed for a pita bread. She said it was very refreshing and light, but also filling. Everything was very fresh. The iced coffee was also really good. Next time I have to try the skillet pancake as I saw every other table raving about them. Definitely a must try!

Had breakfast at The Common, their eggs Benedict are were a symphony of flavors in my mouth, maybe I was just that hungry but it just tasted great. The poached eggs were so perfectly cooked, they deserve a standing ovation and the smoked salmon tastes fresh and not too fishy. And those potatoes? Crispy on the outside, fluffy on the inside - they're basically the rockstars of brunch sides, and the cook was very kind and gave me family and I some extra potatoes that they had made. The service was top-notch; they anticipated my brunch desires like mind-readers, the waitress that was working there was attentive and very nice to us and kept checking on us and was working on her own and it wasn't busy so props to her.

I came here with a friend on a rainy day and it was so cozy. As they just opened when we went the walls were a little barren. However, the service and food completely made up for it. The service was quick and our server was very friendly, greeting up with a smile. The breakfast potatoes were absolutely to DIE FOR and they offered gluten free bread for the benedict. A great place in Park Slope.
