There are a few things you should know about me as a traveler. First of all, I love eating as much as traveling, so enjoying great food whenever I happen to be is of utmost importance for me. Second, I like sleeping. This means I usually miss breakfast and skip directly to brunch.
The problem is, not all hotels serve brunch. Of all the hotels I have visited so far, a total of zero served brunch.
Maybe it is a general hotel rule or just bad luck, I don’t know, but it is a fact. That is why finding a great place that serves brunch near me is my number one concern when I travel.
Brunch is my favorite meal of the day. It is a meal that allows me to sleep until late and is fulfilling enough to keep me going for hours.
Plus, I have come to a conclusion that brunch is the best way to sample at multiple local foods at the same time at lower prices!
That being said, I share a few valuable tips and tricks that have helped me to eat the best places brunch near me whenever I am.

I used this website when I was in Connecticut a few weeks ago. I simply clicked on the “Brunch near me” section on their website and selected my location. “Cedarhurst Café” popped up and I rushed there immediately.
The place was amazing – beautiful interior, great service and, most importantly, unique food: Belgian Nutella waffles, muffins, and cream cheese bagel sandwich, all in big portions and quite reasonable prices.
