“Very busy on Saturday Afternoons, but they work like a well oiled machine. Staff was efficient and courteous. Prices a little bit on the higher side but well worth it”
“I must admit the wait was worth it, I ordered a French toast flight with scrambled eggs, my husband ordered purple grits with jerk shrimp, fried catfish, with cheesy hash browns. The presentation was beautiful, the atmosphere was very nice, It felt so good to eat at a black owned restaurant where the food was fantastic. I had the best server Alex, he was very polite, he made sure we got everything we ordered, he checked on us every chance he got. I loved that Alex took time to converse with us being that we were from Cleveland. I will be coming back just to eat at this nice place, I hope next time I can meet the owner.”
“The Brunchery is 10/10. Delicious!!!! Jasmine was our server she was so delightful! She knows the menu and makes wonderful suggestions. The food is sooo good! I had their Lobster Omlett with grill potatoes, my goodness it was wonderful. Stop here!! It is soo good. The owner, Chris even took time to come over and speak with us. He is so personable.

“This is a nice place with good service and food. Best espresso martini around. 😋 I tried others and had to come here to cleanse my palate.”
“I’ve been dying to come here for the past 2 years and I’m so happy I finally got to experience “The Brunchery.” Beautiful cozy brunch spot perfect for a brunch date with your significant other or friends! The mimosa flights were good. Next time, I’ll try the margarita flights! The bacon flight was definitely interesting and very tasty if you like trying new things. The French toast flight was absolutely delicious!!! The corned beef hash skillet was also very tasty. Definitely will be returning!!”
“This place is amazing!! From the ambiance, the staff, to the food and the owner!! 10/10 went two days in a row while visiting. Will definitely be back!!”
“This is a small, busy restaurant, but the food definitely lives up to the hype. I only wish they had more seafood options like shrimp and grits or fish and grits.”
“Food was exceptional...only take back was the size...small place..you are literally sitting with a few inches of everyone while eating.”
“Everything about the restaurant was great and the owner had phenomenal energy! I recommend the lamb deviled eggs and the jerk chicken Alfredo omelet”
“How do I love thee? Let me count the ways. The food is good, and beautifully presented. I didn't have to wait, but I made it a point to arrive right at opening time on a weekend morning. There are monthly specials, and portions are big.”
