Easter Sunday Brunch: Sunday, April 5th
So this isn’t a specific an “event,” but brunch is definitely a Hoboken favorite and whether you’re celebrating Easter or not this weekend- the brunch specials this weekend will surely make for Sunday Funday. Brunch this weekend will probably be busy, so we do recommend making reservations. Here are a few of our favorites:
~ Amanda’s is offering a great prix fixe menu for $38pp with seatings at 10:30, 11:00, 12:30, & 1:00. Their brunch is some of the best in town and is a great option for families.
~ The Brass Rail’s Easter Brunch menu looks phenomenal. For $25 you get a choice of an appetizer and an entree. With choices like banana & ricotta crepes, s’mores donut holes, and PB&J Belgian waffles- drooling.
~ While they don’t have a specific “Easter Brunch” menu advertised, Otto Strada’s brunch menu is fantastic in general. Nutella stuffed french toast? Yes please! It’s also BYOB, which is a total bonus.
~ If you’re up for heading to Jersey City, Batello has two perfect options for Easter brunch. Choose between a live jazz buffet featuring The Sean Harkness Jazz Trio, and a selection of brunch options including two carving stations, house-made biscuits and waffles, parfait and omelet stations in the Battello Lounge or enjoy the a la carte Brunch menu set to breathtaking New York City views in the main dining room.
What are your plans for this weekend? Have fun!
