If you know where to look, you can go have all the trappings of a good brunch <\/span>and <\/span><\/i>still eat very well. Here are 12 places serving the best brunch in NYC. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n This LA import first fired up its griddles in the West Village<\/a> in 2021. When you only focus on one meal\u2014in this case, surprise surprise, breakfast\u2014you know it\u2019s going to be good. And <\/span>Breakfast by Salt\u2019s Cure<\/span><\/a> does not disappoint. The oatmeal griddle cakes here are a killer way to start any day.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Chef Ruben Rodriguez, from the Spanish province of Galicia, takes the idea of brunch to new heights at this East Village restaurant. Instead of the usual eggs and pancakes, <\/span>Emilia by Nai<\/span><\/a><\/span> gives lucky diners things like a flavor-popping mushroom katsu sandwich, a refreshing charred peach and ricotta toast, and a light and flaky curried onion puff pastry that is so good you\u2019ll maybe want to order two. There are also a number of excellent coffee-infused cocktails which were created in collaboration with <\/span>Coffee Project New York<\/span><\/a><\/span>. This a brunch every food lover should experience.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Restaurateur Gabe Stulman\u2019s <\/span>Fairfax<\/span><\/a>, located on the improbable West Village intersection of West 10th and West 4th Streets, offers a legion of inspired brunch fare in a room bedecked with mid-century modern stylings.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Brunch standouts include the Mediterranean Brunch, which is really more Middle Eastern, with hummus, baba ganoush, za\u2019atar flatbread, and harissa, among other delights. Also available at brunch is the outstanding Bar Sardine burger, a remnant of Stulman\u2019s now-closed restaurant across the street.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Set at the end of an alleyway on the Lower East Side, <\/span>Freemans\u2019<\/span><\/a> wacky Wes Anderson-esque decor (think: taxidermy and antique kitsch) set the trend in restaurant design when it first opened in 2004. And it\u2019s still going strong today.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n It also happens to serve an amazing brunch menu, which is offered every day. Flirt with a heart attack by tucking into the hearty English breakfast or go healthier with the Norwegian Benedict which comes with aji-amarillo-spiked hollandaise sauce.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Restaurants with great views are supposed to suck, right? Well, not <\/span>The Fulton<\/span><\/a>, super chef Jean-George Vongrichten\u2019s France-meets-Asia eatery in the South Street Seaport.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n With the Brooklyn Bridge looming out the large windows, feast on sashimi, a fried swordfish sandwich, and\/or Faroe Island-roasted salmon for a spectacular weekend brunch. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n This place lives up to its name. Set on the fringes of Chinatown, <\/span>Golden Diner<\/span><\/a> is an Asian-accented eatery that serves seriously inspired brunch fare cooked up by an erstwhile Momofuku chef. From honey-butter pancakes to green tea coffee cake to lemongrass-spiked avocado toast to Korean fried chicken wings, this place has it all.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Brunch isn\u2019t a thing in Vietnam, but it is a thing at <\/span>Hanoi House<\/span><\/a>, one of the best Vietnamese restaurants in New York City.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Located in the East Village, Hanoi House\u2019s weekend brunch consists of a way-better-than-it-sounds papaya and pig ear salad, the classic Hanoi dish <\/span>bun cha<\/span><\/i>, and, of course, the restaurant\u2019s insanely good pho (which in Vietnam is usually eaten in the morning, so it would be appropriate to order it for brunch here).\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Why go all the way to the Caribbean for brunch when you can just settle into <\/span>Kokomo<\/span><\/a> in Williamsburg?\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n You can get a brunch-y taste of the islands with roasted and stuffed sweet plantains, stewy oxtail on flatbread, and tender grilled lamb chops. Fork out $55 for an entree on Friday and it opens a 90-minute window to chug all the mimosas you can.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n From the people who brought you the French-Canadian charmer Chez Ma Tante in Greenpoint comes <\/span>Le Crocodile<\/span><\/a>. Brunch at this Williamsburg spot in the Wythe Hotel is an epicurean delight with dishes like waffles and rhubarb, juicy roast chicken, and a dreamy croque monsieur.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n This lively East Village <\/span>spot<\/span><\/a> goes way beyond the usual egg\/pancakes\/burger offerings to serve some of the best brunch in NYC. Take, for example, the luscious andouille sausage corn dog, the super flaky roasted mushroom and onion tart, the coconut-milk-spiked pumpkin soup, and the blue crab sandwich. <\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n Oh yeah, they do have a burger here but it\u2019s lamb and it\u2019s topped with gouda and mint jelly. Yum!\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n You need not wait until Sunday to dig into the amazing brunch items at <\/span>this popular spot<\/span><\/a> in Brooklyn\u2014Williamsburg, to be exact\u2014because it\u2019s offered every day here. The tall stack of pancakes here are a thing of delicious Instagrammable beauty. And the burger is one of the best in the city.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n There\u2019s also a fried chicken sandwich, biscuits and gravy, and variations on the theme of egg\u2014but if you don\u2019t get the pancakes and\/or the burger, you might not be human. Easily a contender for some of the best brunch in NYC.<\/span><\/p>\n This gastropub<\/span><\/a> in Astoria is worth a subway ride. The brunch menu is loaded with hearty pub grub like bacon-and-egg-loaded breakfast nachos, fried pickles, literal green eggs and ham, and a sumptuous fried green tomato BLT. Throw in an extra $25 and you get 90 minutes of bibulous all-you-can-drink debauchery (choose between mimosas, Bloody Marys, sangria, or beer).\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\nBreakfast by Salt\u2019s Cure<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/h2>\n
