8 of the Best Brunch Spots in Boston

1. Bar Mezzana

Bar Mezzana

Boston, United States

If you really love brunch but also adore pasta (I mean, who doesn’t?!), I’m about to blow your mind. The good people of Bar Mezzana were kind and innovative enough to create a brunch menu featuring crostini of all sorts – prosciutto di parma and mozzarella; a fancy dry-aged cheeseburger and lots more. Such pioneers. I’ll be forever grateful. #brunch #coffee

2. Saltie Girl

Saltie Girl

Boston, United States

Saltie girl is so good, I wake up early on Sunday morning just to jog from Allston to Back bay for 40 minutes and snag a seat before anyone else. So worth it. Do you like eggs? Waffles? Fried lobster? This is your spot. #brunch #coffee

3. Stephanie’s on Newbury

Stephanie’s On Newbury

Boston, United States

Right in the heart of Boston, Stephanie’s is classy and great to chill with a mimosa on a Sunday morning. Start off there and pop into the Newbury street boutiques after. I think that’s pretty much the Boston version of Breakfast at Tiffany’s. #brunch #coffee

4. The Beehive

The Beehive

Boston, United States

No matter how big of a mess you were on Saturday night, you can still regain some class and enjoy your morning at the Beehive’s jazz brunch. I always go for the strawberry rhubarb coffee cake with honey butter. It doesn’t get any better than that. #brunch #music #coffee

5. South End Buttery

South End Buttery

Boston, United States

Take this however you like – I’m just gonna go ahead and say it: if you don’t have a sweet tooth, you’re weird and we can’t be friends. But if you do, oh man, get your butt up early this weekend and hit up the buttery for all the cupcakes you can handle. If that doesn’t make the perfect Sunday, I don’t know what does. #brunch #coffee

6. Steve’s Kitchen

Steve’s Kitchen

Boston, United States

Total hole on the wall and a hidden Boston gem. (Sorry about all the clichés, but it’s true). Cheap and delicious brunch, great fluffy pancakes and Greek omelets. It’s cash only and made by a Greek yaya, so you know it’s good 👌🏽 #cheap-eats #coffee

7. Deep Ellum

Deep Ellum

Boston, United States

The closer I get to Deep Ellum’s entrance on a Sunday morning, the faster my heart beats as I pray there’s a seat available for a hungry, hungover soul. All I want in this life of brunch is some eggs and a banh mi, some eggs and banh mi. Get there early and have a Bloody Mary with your meal. Enjoy! #brunch #coffee #coffee

8. The Townshend

The Townshend

Quincy, United States

3 words for ya: carrot cake fritters. Only reason I ever come out to Quincy, but boy, is it worth it! Save these for last and ball out with a lemon-thyme whipped cream on con read French toast. Why can’t every day be Sunday? #brunch #coffee
