It’s brunch season! With so many wonderful food options, it can be hard to know where to start. But, here are my favorite spots for a great boozy brunch on the Upper West Side!
Crave Fishbar

For an $18 add-on, guests receive 90 minutes of unlimited CFB Bloody Marys (16 ingredients), Mimosas or Margaritas with their brunch entree purchase. Brunch at Crave also features a Shucker’s Choice oyster for $1, perfect for enjoying on the outdoor patio on a beautiful summer day.
Popular dishes include Fried Fish & Waffles (a Belgian waffle with fried hake, kimchi butter and sweet chili sauce), the Crave Breakfast Sandwich with North Country smokehouse bacon, over easy eggs and Adirondack cheddar on a scooped out Orwasher’s everything bagel, and Lobster Cavatelli and Cheese with house-made cavatelli, a half lobster and a sunny side up egg.
