Best Brunch in Slope?
I was going to respond on the thread about Beer Table. I do love that place, but I need a HUGE brunch, and $25.00 is too much for too little. I picture eggs, grits, breakfast burritos, scrambled tofu, biscuits, sausage, killer bloody marys etc..Unfortunately, I don't have a favorite local place, and we usually head to Cobble Hill.

I think Dizzys is pretty awesome. I get the 3-egg omelet with 4 ingrendients and the toast and homefries and muffins and OJ and coffee almost every weekend & I've never left hungry.
I like Union Smith Cafe in Carroll Gardens too.
I'm currently addicted to Bogota's food so I'm going to try it for brunch soon too. Has anyone else tried their brunch? -
+1 for Dizzys, +1 for Union Smith.
Le Petite Cafe on Court around Liquer has a great brunch (sorry I live in CG, so I usually eat around here, but our local board is boring so I post here). Also Ceol on Smith has a traditional (and very good) Irish breakfast if you're into that. Haven't been to Bogota brunch yet. -

And hopefully you'll get some suggestions for Park Slope proper. What is up with the people on the BOCOCA board? I have no one to talk to! Too many babies? Too much of a life? Jeesh!

Miracle Grill has grits, breakfast burritos and snakebite Bloody Marys
-
Even though it's a diner, not brunch, I've come to really like Little Purity. Small, friendly and solid food. It's become my weekend go-to spot.
-
Magnolia's on 6th ave near 11th isn't bad... they don't have as many amazing choices for a Sunday morning, hungover and desperately hungry crowd, but I've gone there as an alternate when Dizzy's wait was too long and it was pretty good.
-
We've planned to go to Bogota for brunch several times and it wasn't open until dinner. I just checked their website and it says they have Sunday brunch so hopefully that is so. (maybe we always went on Saturday or this is new)
Coco Roco is still my favorite. Besides the good food (best rotisserie chicken around), good cocktails, and usually live music (guitars and sometimes a horn), the price is great--$10 for food, coffee, and cocktail. The only bloody mary I have enjoyed in the neighborhood (Maybe they make them different up here, but most of them are really gross and unfit for consumption to me).
I also like Burrito Bar when the weather was nice and we could sit outside or at least near open doors. Good smoothies.
Dizzy's is usually too busy and rushed for me, but the food is fine.
The one time we've tried Perch, the food was good and was happy to wait for a table since they have a seating area in the back for waiting.
Anxious to try Beer Table and Sidecar and Bogota for brunch. -
I loved the brunch at Little D.
-
You get cornbread at Miracle Grill too
-
Hey Voodoo - I'm in CG, too, and I have no idea why the Bococa (I hate that word) board is so quiet. I think it's just a more mellow nabe than PS.
-
I totally dig Scottodito on Union: decent brunch menu and unlimited mimosas (which are delish!) for $15 I think?
Also really like 12 Street Cafe (though more on the pricey side, I think).
I like 5th Ave Diner way better than Daisy's and have always wondered how Grand Canyon's bkfsts were (when I'm in a greasy spoon kind of a mood) -
Rose Water is my favorite. I cannot stress enough how their hot apple cider is the most amazing experience during the cold winter months.
Stone Park is also quite nice.
Both are vegetarian friendly as well if you have any concern in that department.
Park Slope is quite fortunate in having numerous restaurants with great brunches. -
Aha! Miracle Grill is the one I was looking for. Bloodys and Grits. Yes!
I can't wait to check out 12th st. It's off of my radar-so thanks.
And I forgot about how much I love Dizzy's. Of course!!
Like I said, I know PLENTY of places outside of Park Slope-I was asking for places we could all walk to.
Stone Park-mediocre at best. they won't be getting my money ever again.
Rose Water-The ULTIMATE DINING EXPERIENCE! My dinner fave--but I prefer comfort food in massive amounts for brunch.
Little D- limited eclectic menu, and seems expensive for small plates
THANKS ALL! -
Just so you know, the Bloody Marys are not included in the brunch price-I think between brunch and the bloodys, I pay about $17 or $18 for my brunch-but, it is good and a lot of food! Make sure to get the snakebite bloodys-they make them with pepper vodka!
-
I agree that it's pricey, but I'm a grits and biscuit person too and the cheddar grits with pork butt at Little D is something I dream about.
-
Since I'm a lush I like the all you can drink brunch at Sette, but they also give you two courses of hearty grub and muffins. Last time I had a beet salad and then a big omelette with smoked salmon and goat cheese and carmelized onions and about a billion bloodys, mimosas and coffees.
200 Fifth has a decent sized brunch too - huge basket of bagels and a big meal with lots of choices. -
I tend to do my drinking under the cover of darkness, and frankly, all you can drink mimosas at 11:30am is sick - even to me.
Two words: Flatbush Farm. I hate mornings as much as the next person so I quite enjoy the almost resentful wait staff at the Farm. I'm here to soak up the remaining booze in my blood with dough and grease, not chat with a waiter.
The Farms is spot on. One huge pancake, two, three... you order them by the singles; the coffee is on the strong side, the bacon is over a .25inches thick, the eggs are fresh, the salad is spicy... the bread is thick and crusty...
I grew up on a farm... with farm boys drinking Genny and smashing up pickup trucks. The brunch here is a slightly polished version of what was served to the boys coming in from the fields in what us urbanites would call the morning. -
Genny? Was your farm near Rochester?
-
Close.. but not really. Upstate. The REAL Upstate.
-
North Country?
-
DR what you say saddens me........... daytime drinking is so fun!!!!!!!! Plus we didn't see you at the chicklynian gathering as promised, and that was at night so I am beginning to believe you aren't a drunk at all.

If it's Genesse, i've been there. -
I'm with Scarlett on the day drinking. A big liquid brunch, and then find a good bar with great windows to people watch. BTW, I recommend either Doc Holidays or Spring Lounge in Manhattan for post brunch people watching. Haven't done enough Brooklyn day drinking to pick a locale yet. I'm guessing outside at Gate during the warmer months. Any suggestions in the neighborhood for this time of year?
-
Miriam's brunch is really good, in my opinion. Had it a few times, and it's MUCH better than their dinner...
I think Applewood has a nice brunch too from what I recall.
Also, it's a little bit of a walk and not in Park Slope, but my favorite brunch spot in Brooklyn is ICI up on Dekalb in Ft. Greene.
If you ever go up to the Brooklyn Flea, a great spot to hit on the way there or back. The french toast is the best I've ever had...! -
Sheep Station has a pretty good brunch...but I always end up getting too drunk.

shoutout to genny light!

Two Boots is a tasty brunch.

Ugh. I hate Two Boots for both dinner and brunch. Ick. I know I'm in the minority - just my 2 cents. -

I wouldn't go anywhere near Two Boots for brunch and I actually have kids! you are just a glutton for punishment IMO going there. -
It's not quiet but it's delicious and my 10 year old loves it.
Howdy, Stranger!
