Pete’s Brooklyn Eats

This hidden gem in the Brooklyn Armory is worth the trip! I’m Italian and I’m hard to please when eating out. The food here is like eating at my moms! The owner Mario is wonderful! The atmosphere is welcoming and its spotless! Very clean and chic I would highly recommend Petes Eats!

What an amazing find! A group of classmates and I didn’t know where to eat so we decided to Unilocal a place nearby. Surprisingly this café was amazing good and the service paralleled the taste! Reasonable prices and a wide selection of foods to choose from! Definitely would recommend it!

cheap. fast. taste great! and they will make almost anything you want. friendly staff that knows you by name.

I eat lunch here frequently and I’m working my way through the entire menu, which is a challenge because it’s enormous. That said, everything I’ve had has been outstanding.
The staff is one of the best I’ve seen at any restaurant in Brooklyn. Everyone is always smiling and they ALL move with a purpose — something that’s sorely lacking in many eateries I’ve tried around the area. I’ve never had to wait more than a few minutes for my food even on the busiest days. These guys could teach a college level course on customer service. It’s something to behold — believe me.
BOTTOM LINE:
Outstanding home cooked food prepared by a talented and fast-​moving staff in an impeccably clean kitchen at a great price. The kind of place you could eat at five days a week and never have a bad meal.
If you’re in the area, give PETE’S a try — you will not be disappointed.

Love this place. From the food to the staff, everything is top notch. You can’t help but be in a good mood around these guys!

Honestly speaking their food is okay isn’t the best and it’s to expensive to begin with the are located in sunset park not bay ridge I can get a philly cheese steak cheaper in a bodega and taste better they are too cheap with the meat second of all their staff can be moody sometime in a good mood sometimes with an attitude specially their manager she can be very rude other then that it could be better

Pete’s is located in the BAT building and is one of the few restaurants in the area for breakfast and lunch for the employees of the BAT complex. The employees of Pete’s are very friendly and welcoming. The owners are very nice and interact with all of the customers. My favorite thing to eat here is the Salad Pizza! No sauce, tons of fresh veggies, feta, olives and balsamic vinegar. This is my go to coffee spot as well! Thanks Pete’s!

Pete’s is my go to spot for lunch. I love the staff, they’re super friendly and always greet me by my name as soon as I come in. The food is very eclectic. Soups, salads, sandwiches, burgers, paninis, and then the hot food behind the glass counter that’s ready to be served and freshly made everyday. And it’s decently priced. It’s definitely a place that is consistent in service! And I love the new seating area in BAT! So bright and spacious.

There’s a lot to like about Pete’s. From the service to the food, this place can’t be beat. Pete’s recently moved into their permanent location within Brooklyn Army Terminal and the pizza ovens are going from morning till night churning out fantastic, homemade pizza. Everything is yummy and reasonably priced. But what really seals the deal for me are the folks working there — they’re always friendly and quick.
I also love that I can walk in half-​awake in the morning and they just hand me my coffee. No need to talk — they know their customers and how they take their coffee. A place that knows what you want without even having to ask you is tops in my books!

Best kept secret. Cheap prices, great fresh food, awesome service & a wide variety on the menu. You can’t ask for much else.

I work in the next building. And stopped by Pete’s everyday for lunch and breakfast. Really like the owners. very sweet couple. But the employees always have an attitude. One of the girls once made a comment on the amount of food I eat and how skinny I am. I can put up with anything when the quality of the food is good. But today I got something extra in my coffee. I bought a coffee with my breakfast. But opened it in my office. I sipped it and felt something on my tongue… I thought to myself… God, please no… I spitted it back to the cup… and it was a COCKROACH!!! Disgusting!!! I went back right away, just to acknowledge the staff that there was and insect in the coffee, so they would stop serving it to the other customers. I even showed them the contents of my cup. First thing the lady said — «That’s not from us!» Really, lady, you just served me the coffee yourself and you don’t recognize it. Then she said «When i served it to you, there was no cockroach». Yeah, right, why would I add a cockroach to my coffee when I’d rather die then come several feet close to any of them… I’m scared of them more than anything in this world. and today the worst nightmare came true! Thanks Pete’s!:((((((((((((I asked the lady not too serve that coffee to anyone, she told me it was a different coffee they serve to the customers now. What a bull***?! She gave me 2 bucks back. No apologies, nothing. She said to come back to see the owners later. Which I will! And I’ll write about it right after.

Great food, great prices and excellent people. All i need to say.

When the cafeteria at BAT (the Brooklyn Army Terminal) shut down, we were all disappointed that we all had to shlep the extra half a block to find food. Luckily, Pete’s Place took over the location a few months later. While they haven’t yet moved into the actual cafeteria space, they’ve set up a neat little food court of one of the BAT buildings.
Pete’s Place serves some very nice food. They have the traditional Italian stuff, like lasagna and baked ziti (a must for any deli), but they also branch out with such fare as jambalaya and tequila sunrise (chicken in an alfredo sauce). They also feature a daily soup, which usually delights. Wraps, sandwiches, pizza, and pastries are also on tap.
Now for the bad. Since the food is brought from their regular location a block away and warmed in chafing dishes, it can get cold. Nothing a few seconds in the micro can’t fix, if you’re able. They’re also a bit expensive, much more expensive than other places in the area. You definitely pay for the convenience of not having to walk across the street or down the block. Their food is at least a dollar, if not more, than their nearest competitor.
All-​in-​all, though, I tend to go there for lunch more often than anywhere else because the food is good, and if I’m not going to order large portions the price difference isn’t that bad.
