Take the ferry there and enjoy an awesome beyond awesome brunch....I felt like a judge on Chopped, raving over the brilliant combination of perfect cooking, fresh ingredients, mix of textures, proper use of spices...
And the people who work there were so kind, so efficient.
Quite seriously the best meal I have had out in ages in this small, lovely place.
Absolute best food ever! I had the ham and egg sandwich with the jalapeño jam and everything was so fresh. My boyfriend had the huevos rancheros and I couldn't stop eating his food too! Best birthday breakfast ever. The waitress was amazing, the decor 100% awesome, and the bartender was so sweet and even gave us a a little shot before we left for my birthday! Next time we are in Brooklyn we will be back again to try lunch!
This place is a 💎 in Red Hook. It's part of a Restaurant/Bar. The section I went into is The General Store. They have breakfast and lunch items that you can eat here or takeout. They also have Rotisserie Chicken and grocery items. The place is very cute with a vibe of being in another era. The service is good and so are the prices. I had an Egg and Cheese Biscuit. It was tasty. I especially liked the Biscuit. The people working there were very nice. I have to go back and check out the Restaurant.
Great brunch, everything on the menu is clearly prepared with love for food. The staff was friendly, very attentive, and the outdoor seating is great when the weather is warm.
I loved the huevos rancheros with hand cut pork chili.
Came for brunch h on a Saturday with a friend. Got the Irish coffee which apparently has somewhat of a reputation. It was very good. Also got the huevos rancheros which was yummy, and then a gin fizz! My favorite. Super nice staff and time.
Drove from NJ for Sunday Brunch and it was well worth it. Their Irish coffee lives up to its reputation, it was excellent!! Great service in a small cozy ambiance. Great food and drinks all around.
Cool bar with great eats in Red Hook. We sampled a good portion of the menu and everything was really good. Highlights included the anchovy toast, deviled eggs, Caesar salad, chicken liver toast and skirt steak. The skirt steak was so good that we ordered a second order immediately after finishing the first. Pleasant, informed service. Fun place for casual drinks and bistro food.
A fantastic spot. Lovely decor and great art on the wall with a produce section at the back selling various niche items. Great coffee and good food. Recommend.
It's a silly thing but I loved that they served the huevos rancheros in a shallow bowl. It wasn't particularly sloppy but it was nice not to worry about egg yolks running over the edge of the plate. Their rendition was hearty and delicious.
Nice outdoor seating even if it was a chilly day.
it’s really good. the burger has changed from their oklahoma double smash burger but it’s still yummy. fries are great, cocktails are great. tin fish of the day is a must!

UPDATE:
We finally made it to Fort Defiance in their new location for brunch today and it was very good. I had the huevos rancheros which was excellent. I'm hoping they sell the pork chili that is in it on its own because it was delicious. BF had the American breakfast with a nice slab of potato roesti disguised as hash browns. He said it was very satisfying. We had a wander in the general store that is at the front of the restaurant. What a great little shop for delicious goodies and hostess presents. Got a beautiful looking bottle of olive oil and a tangerine shrub that's made by Andy Ricker of Pok Pok, a fancy looking tin of smoked trout pate and an apple thyme hand pie. 😋
MY PREVIOUS REVIEW:
As I sunk my teeth into the burger yesterday, I really wanted to cry cuz it was so freaking good. I was really tired and hungry when I went to the restaurant and I need it good comforting food and Fort Defiance delivered. I had a really delicious smoked trout salad which had lots of layers of flavor with beets and fennel. So good. My boyfriend had the lentil soup which had little pine nuts floating in it and a nice but not overpowering notes of coriander. He had the Farro Salad as well which was also delicious. This is got to be one of the best spots in the neighborhood. I must go there more often.
They say it's the best Irish Coffee anywhere - believe it! And the biscuits were divine. All was calm and mellow for brunch on Dec 23, our party of four waa seated right away. Loved the cozy vibe.
