Do: Elevated Brunch at The Old Town Junction
Seasonal ingredients and plates built from the bottom up keep cuisine connoisseurs clamoring for a table at OTJ. Our recent trip to the Main Street star included Braised Short Rib Benedict with poached eggs, baby spinach, English muffin and chipotle hollandaise; the Chicken & Waffle OG with rosemary waffle, buttermilk-soaked chicken, fried egg, hot honey and gravy; and the Cinnamon Toast French Toast brioche with mixed-berry compote and syrup. Delicious! And take our word for it: the kitchen-crafted Cold Brew Cocktail with Mr. Black cold-brew liqueur, Spring 44 vodka, Irishman Irish cream and chocolate chips is a delicious kick in the pants.

Do: Vibrant Brunch at The Local Pub & Grill
Weekend brunch at The Local is all at once fun, exciting and satisfying. The portions are generous, the crowd is hyped and the staff is stoked to see regulars and newbies come together (At a distance!) to chill. The mimosas are outstanding, but you've never officially brunched until you've had The Local's Holy Hot Jalapeno Bloody Mary. Our top menu pick: Chicken & Waffles, with fried chicken tenders and fresh strawberries and blueberries, all dusted with powdered sugar. It's just the savory-sweet profile we crave at brunch. Also worth noting - The Local's Littles brunch menu for kids 12 and under keeps the tab affordable - each item is $7.

Reservations, reservations, reservations! Seriously, just call right now and take it off your to-do list - because pent up demand and capacity limits will lead to disappointed mamas if you wait too long. Package deals, brunch surprises and special desserts (That always sell out - don't wait!) are just a few more reasons to make those rezzies now.
