This is the second location of the business, a spin-off of the Littleneck seafood restaurant in Gowanus (the first Outpost is in Greenpoint).

Littleneck Outpost is open from 8 a.m.–7 p.m. daily.
Aunt Mae's
871 Third Ave., Sunset Park
Aunt Mae's is a coffee and tea spot, offering waffles and sandwiches.

Aunt Mae's currently holds four stars out of three reviews on Yelp, indicating good reviews.
Yelper Christian Y., who reviewed the business on March 3, wrote, "They have a good amount of seating for dining in, and the pricing is very fair and affordable for the neighborhood. As for the food itself, my sandwich contained a generous amount of quality pastrami and was nicely balanced with a good sauerkraut-to-meat ratio. I'll definitely be back to try other goodies!"
Yelper Mike G. wrote, "[T]his place stands out. Great tasting food, and a staff that cares about what they put out."
Aunt Mae's is open from 10 a.m.–6 p.m. Monday-Saturday. (It's closed on Sunday.)

Yelper Tom A. wrote, "We got the crab roll, lobster roll and Old Bay fries. After the first few bites, we put in a second order of crab mac and cheese to go. It's dangerous that the Crabby Shack is only a block away. "
