My Beautiful Luncheonette: La Cantine in Bushwick

June 4, 2026

A bakery and lunch spot by day and a small bistro and natural wine bar by night, La Cantine is located on a gritty-ish corner of Bushwick, an on-the-up neighborhood in Brooklyn. For the interiors, owners Ioana Hercberg, a transplanted Parisian, and her partner, chef Raymond Lyons, worked with French-American designer Sophie Lou Jacobsen of Studio Sayso. The team transformed the interiors of La Cantine into a pastel Parisian-inspired space with a classic American deli vibe.

Join us for a tour:
