Took my wife here for Mother's Day breakfast , what a great place. The food was excellent, the staff was great, and that atmosphere was awesome. My wife said this is our new place for breakfast

Expect a laid back friendly atmosphere with a delicious breakfast/brunch menu...local ingredients/Canadian flare...be sure to note the mug collection! Enjoy!

Delicious, greasy food for the masses. With poutine brunch options and hangover meals done right, the Brooklyn Street Local is a new local favorite. [Eater 38 Member]

They have REAL poutine here with fresh cheese curds ! Trust me, it makes all the difference. The keeners are from Canada, settled in Detroit, so believe they know their poutine .
