Best Brunch In Hyde Park
Hyde Park brunch includes a Southern counter-order diner, a weekend restaurant breakfast and an early cafeteria meal. Roux, Medici on 57th and Valois give those distinct options around the university neighborhood. Compare complete plates and included sides, then choose the service format and arrival time rather than assuming every breakfast restaurant takes a reservation.
