Oh my gosh! The kitchen team here deserves every compliment. Good value for the money as well. The team members were exceptionally friendly, keeping drinks replenished and checking that everything was enjoyable. Their meals combine taste with substantial size. I'm thinking I'll try again.

This corner spot has both a bar area, seating in the front and a back room that's perfect for corralling families on the weekend. I have been for brunch and definitely recommend trying a few things including the pretzel which IS the best pretzel in NYC as both NY Mag and NY Times have declared. Don't skip taking an apple strudel to go!

Note: They only accept cash or american express.

Werkstatt is a beloved neighborhood spot, offering a laid-back atmosphere with standout dishes like the Lamb Shank, Pretzel, and Pastrami Hash. A perfect weekend destination for regulars, it’s a great place to meet friends and enjoy top-notch service. The Roasted Chicken with fries and salad is a must-try if you’re looking to impress. Add a whiskey sour to make them extra happy. A true community favorite for over a decade!

Extremely disappointed with this once loved local restaurant.

I’ve been a fan of Werkstatt since it first opened but lately this neighborhood restaurant has become quite outrageous with its ridiculous policy of only taking reservations for parties of 6 or more. The last straw was my dining experience here today. We were a party of 4 but one individual was late and the owner/hostess refused to seat us. This seemed extremely illogical since we would require a table for 4 regardless of whether we were 3 or 4. Her comment that she “could turn a table in 15 minutes” was both outrageous and rude. Best of luck with your business but I’ll never eat here again.

Incredible meal! We came to Werkstatt for our 10 year wedding anniversary and had such a great time. Cold, crisp Kolsch with our roasted Brussels sprouts and pretzel, followed by another round of Kolsch with our chicken schnitzel and polish kielbasa with lots of tasty salads/sides.

Service was great. Great music, vibe. Everything. Our new favorite neighborhood restaurant!

Great place! The waitstaff are kind and professional. The food very delicious. The only downside was a send(or smt like send) inside mussels.
