I’ve been to quite a few brunch spots in the city, but this one really stood out. The atmosphere was relaxed and cozy, which made it the perfect spot for a chill weekend brunch. I went with the veggie omelet, and it was packed with fresh ingredients, cooked to perfection, and so flavorful. My partner tried the pancakes, and they were fluffy, light, and just the right amount of sweet. The coffee was fresh, the cocktails were well-crafted, and the service was friendly and efficient. It’s the kind of place where you can sit back, enjoy a good meal, and feel right at home. If you’re on the hunt for a new brunch spot, I definitely recommend checking out their menu here: White Horse Tavern menu.
