Practical notes

What to plan for before you book — spend, reservation strategy, and who should skip this guide entirely.

Expected spend
$25–55 per person with one drink. Boozy brunch with bottomless cocktails runs $55–80.
Booking strategy
Reservations open 7–14 days out at the strongest spots. Walk-in strategy: arrive at open (usually 9:00–10:00) or push to the 12:30–1:00 window after the first turn clears.
What to order
Pick one of the savory anchor dishes plus one pastry or side — splitting works at brunch in a way it doesn't at dinner.
Skip if
you want a quick coffee-and-pastry stop or a quiet room. These picks reward sitting and ordering broadly.
