Shout Out: Best Brunch Spot in Connecticut
Breakfast with a dash of lunch, paired with a cocktail and not a single dirty dish to clean. That's brunch in a nutshell. What more could a mother want for Mother's Day?
CTbites wants you to throw down your top candidates for BEST BRUNCH in CONNECTICUT.
Is it a spot with white table cloths, or the neighborhood joint with individually wrapped maple syrup packets. Either way, we won't judge (much).
Which spot is your favorite for brunch? Why?

Schoolhouse at Cannondale/
I agree. I love Schoolhouse brunch. I also have had a good experience at Tavern on Main in Westport. I am looking forward to other responses because brunch is my favorite meal of the week and hoping to learn of some new places to try around Fairfield county - especially kid friendly!
Red Lentil in New Haven.
I believe your picture is from Sugar and Olives and so far thats my FAV!
Water's Edge in Westbrook. Fantastic Food. Beautiful Beach front dining.
Norwalk has my go-to brunch spots; Nicholas Roberts and SoNo Baking Co.
My faves: SoNo Baking Co. and Méli-Mélo of Greenwich
Splash in Westport. Not the trendiest joint around, but the spread is diverse (from raw bar to great salads to carving station to desserts), you can't beat the view, the place is bright, kids can run on the lawn if they finish first and the price is reasonable for the amount of selection (and champagne!)
Amy, where was the featured photo taken? Yum!
The photo is from one of my favorite brunch spots, Sugar & Olives in Norwalk. Get thyself there!
Nicholas Roberts - BYOB brunch... what's better?
I-HOP Stamford. Incredible value and delicious.
Valencia Luncheria!
Nicholas Roberts has the BEST BRUNCH in town- hands down!!
Community Table by far
I'm all about the savory brunch & wine poached eggs...Nicholas Roberts!
I must get to Nicholas Roberts - but my brunch vote goes the extra mile to Watch Hill Rhode Island @ The Ocean House. The hotel transcends you to a different era and the food is awesome.
NICHOLAS ROBERTS IS HANDS DOWN THE BEST!!!
Nicholas Roberts does not have a true brunch. It serves breakfast M-Sat from 8-11am.
Actually Nicholas Roberts has amazing brunch on weekends! and BYOB...so bring champagne and mix your own mimosas...
The Barnum Publick House has, hands down, the Best Brunch in Fairfield County! Banana Stuffed French Toast made with Panatone, Eggnog Pancakes, Shrimp & Grits with a Creole Sauce just to name a few. They have a BOTTOMLESS Do-It-Yourself Bloody Mary Bar for only $15, You read it right, $15 - Also Bottomless Mimosas for only $13. This place is a gem located in the heart of the up and coming downtown Bridgeport Area. Easy on and off the highway. Brunch is usually Packed so call for a reservations.
Nicholas Roberts is the most delic and BYOB is the cherry on top!
Nicholas Roberts Fine Foods in Norwalk has the Best Brunch!
My favorite is the NRG Eggs Benedict, with Chorizo!
My mom always has the French toast!
Everything on their menu rocks your palate!
Sugar & Olives in Norwalk
I hate to even mention the name because its already busy, but hands down Lena's cafe in New Haven has the best weekend brunch. huge mimosas and beautiful creative speacials.
