Aunts et Uncles Brings Plant-Based Flavor to Brooklyn Museum with Summer Pop-Up

Beloved plant-based café Aunts et Uncles is back at the Brooklyn Museum this summer with The Summer House, a seasonal food cart residency serving up culture, flavor, and community.

Based in Little Caribbean, Aunts et Uncles is known for its vibrant café space, thoughtful design, and delicious vegan menu that fuses the couples Caribbean & Brooklyn roots. Now, through their residency at the museum, they’re bringing that same experience curbside, making it easier for museum-goers and passersby to get a taste.

The Summer House is open all summer, Wednesday through Sunday from 11 AM to 5 PM. Catch them anytime, or plan your visit around First Saturdays — Brooklyn Museum’s monthly after-hours celebration of art, music, and culture.

Whether you’re a longtime fan or discovering Aunts et Uncles for the first time, it’s the perfect chance to try something new. We had The Link Up — a vegan hot dog topped with slaw on a pretzel bun — and definitely recommend it!

Stop by, grab a bite, and show love to a local Black-owned business keeping Brooklyn delicious.
