Merriam-Webster’s Dictionary defines brunch as “a meal usually taken late in the morning that combines a late breakfast and an early lunch.” That means it’s the best of both worlds — bacon, eggs, pancakes, mimosas, bloody marys, fresh fruit, spring green salads, stacked sandwiches, wraps and a whole host of specialties you can’t get at other times of the week.

In this issue, we present the ultimate, syrup-soaked guide to 44 spots that will make you happy to set the alarm and where it’s acceptable to hit the bottle before noon.
