Al Fresco Brunch in New York 2025

If New Yorkers could eat every meal outside, they would. Especially brunch! Especially after a wild night out when it feels like a remedy and the Bloody Mary is the elixir of life. No other city takes brunch as seriously as New York. A classic Hell's Kitchen brunch usually includes both savoury and sweet dishes, banana bread, egg-based dishes, bacon or salmon, fresh bagels, and orange juice. American-style coffee is a must just like some boozy drinks like Bloody Marys, Mimosas, or Bellinis. And, of course,​ all this has to be served at a sidewalk table in the warm sun.
