Cafe Madeleine, a French patisserie offering coffee, baked goods and sandwiches is looking to open at 517 Columbus Avenue (formerly Amsterdam Cafe which closed in April 2013). The owner has indicated the cafe will have an open kitchen, 6 window seats, 8 patio seats, and will be open daily from 6:30 a.m. to 6:30 p.m.
Cafe Madeleine’s owner, Frederic Robert, his sous chef, Hana Quon, and their zoning attorney are appealing to remove a condition limiting take-out that the former Amsterdam Cafe had been subject to. The zoning appeal meeting date has not yet been set, but the owners have asked for the support of the neighborhood association and residents. Stay tuned for more details.
