Best Rochester Brunch Spots

Here's my top 3 favorite brunch in Rochester! What do you think... did I get this list right? 🙂
#1 Recipes Rochester
The food here is excellent and there are tons of options to choose from - almond granola pancakes, blackberry biscuits, or even traditional eggs benny. For something a little different, try the california roll omelet. Recipes has patio seating and FREE parking - rare for downtown Rochester!
#2 Rochester Brunch House
A staple in Rochester! The atmosphere is light, airy, and a little glam. Perfect for a ladies brunch date! RBH serves a variety of creative, fresh, and organic dishes as well as delicious coffees. Our server said their most popular dishes were the monte cristo, cinnamon roll pancakes, and turkey avocado wrap. We tried them all and they were all AMAZING!
#3 @Cafe 3:16 of Rochester
New in town, it’s more of a coffee & pastry shop, but doesn’t mean it’s not great for a brunch stop! Tons of caffeinated concoctions along with croissants, baklava, desserts, and ice cream! I love pistachio, so my go-tos are the pistachio matcha latte with a pistachio croissant.
#4 Saint 1881
Once a historic church, Saint 1881 atmosphere’s is beautiful!! Fantastic patio seating with delicious pastry options, and lattes. They don’t have an “official” regular brunch yet, but they are planning to do pop-up brunch throughout the summer! Check in to catch their events and give them a try!
#5 The Meeting House
This is one of my personal favorites! The braised short rib enchiladas are out of this world!! If you’re more into sweets, the challah french toast with ice cream is heavenly. TMH also has a greenhouse and upper loft area to rent for special events, so keep them in mind!
