In theme with the name, this new cafe has noir panelling and riffs on old European coffeehouse ambiance. It offers coffee, sandwiches, pastries from Balthazar (specialties such as a croissant with goat cheese and figs), soup, indoor seating, a landscaped backyard and WiFi. 

Fabricio Franco, who also owns Henry’s Local in Carroll Gardens, co-owns the café along with Red Hook residents Michael Eltcin and Dima Rumiantcev.
