Another great and unique brunch spot in NYC is Poco. Poco is located in Alphabet City, in lower Manhattan. This place is great for brunch if you are looking for something unique and different from your typical american style breakfast food! Poco is a Spanish inspired restaurant that serves tapas and small plates. Their brunch menu is heavily influenced by Spanish cuisine and it’s so delicious!

Next up we have Sadelle’s, located in Soho. Sadelle’s is known for their bagel and smoked salmon platters. They are just so fun! Their bagels are served on a pole and all the smoked fish and toppings come on a huge platter - it’s so instagram worthy and also delicious!

Russ & Daughters

Next up we have La Mercerie, which is located in Soho. This is a perfect brunch spot for when you are feeling fancy. This restaurant has a French inspired cuisine that is just absolutely delicious! And on top of the amazing food the interior of this place is just to die for. It’s so beautiful and makes for such an instagrammable photo-op!

The Brooklyn Diner

And last but not least is the Brooklyn Diner. The Brooklyn Diner is one of my all time favorite restaurants in the city, it’s one of those spots that my family and I have eaten at every time we used to visit NYC. They have two locations, one near Times Square on 43rd St. and the other is in midtown, right by central park on 57th St. While they are a diner technically, the Brooklyn diner is definitely a little fancier and nicer than your typical diner, but the food is just as great! And they have a great breakfast menu making it the best spot for brunch on the weekends!
