Breakfast & brunch in New York

9 places for Breakfast & brunch in New York, picked by creators — with what they said.

• Spring Cafe — ur mom ashley
  She said the salads are the best, especially praising the crispy vegan chicken, the 'liquid gold' sauce, and the tofu skin bao buns, adding that even her non-vegan friends love it.
• The Dead Rabbit — TOPJAW
  Said the frozen Irish coffee was like smooth coffee ice cream, and even the notoriously tricky-to-make Black Velvet was top-notch.
• Maison Premiere — TOPJAW
  Praised the tableside martini — an homage to 1940s hotel bars — the huge daily-changing oyster menu, and finishing the night in the backyard garden.
  Heads up: Classic-leaning enough that a margarita only made the main menu for the first time in 13 years.
• Veselka — TOPJAW
  Loved the house-made ricotta-style cheese pierogi and fried potato pierogi and the sausage, calling it a lovable old-school spot for Ukrainian-American brunch.
  Heads up: There's always a line during the lunch rush.
• Minetta Tavern — National Geographic
  Raved that the thick, meatball-like patty cooked medium-rare melts in your mouth, the soft bun soaks up the juices, and the ratio of caramelized onion to melted cheese is perfect. Also praised the fries as crispy with real potato flavor.
  Heads up: Unlike Chinatown, this is a calm, sit-down bistro atmosphere.
• Black Seed Bagels - Williamsburg — National Geographic
  Raved that the first bite of the chewy, poppy-seed-crusted bagel loaded with salty bacon, melted cheese, and runny yolk was 'a work of art,' and praised the salmon bagel for how the acidity of tomato and onion balances the richness of the cream cheese.
• Murray's Bagels — Beatrice Richer
  Praised the wide variety of smoked fish and the standout menu, calling the salmon and caper bagel a perfect 10 out of 10.
  Heads up: Known from reviews for having long lines, and the egg sandwich fell short of expectations since the cheese wasn't melted.
• David's Brisket House — Jon Barr
  A budget-friendly pastrami option, and unusual for New York, you can choose your portion size.
• Bubby's — Beatrice Richer
  A homestyle American brunch spot famous for pancakes, biscuits, and breakfast platters; they enjoyed the famous pancakes.
  Heads up: They didn't get to try the biscuits but strongly recommend ordering them.
