Brunch has become a popular American pastime every Sunday, and with great reason. This meal, which is held between breakfast and lunchtime, is a wonderful way to enjoy good food with family and friends. If any of these reasons sound good to you, it’s time to consider attending brunch.

Why People Love Brunch

1. More Options

Because this meal is a combination of breakfast and lunch, most menus feature both types of food. There will be something for everyone, no matter what you’re in the mood for. Go for a breakfast food such as pancakes or omelets, or a lunch food such as a sandwich or salad. Because it takes the place of two meals, there is no guilt in filling yourself up on whatever you want to eat.

2. Great Drinks

For those over 21, this outing is often an opportunity to enjoy some great boozy drinks. Some restaurants offer bottomless mimosas or champagne. You can cure your hangover from the night before with a Bloody Mary or wash your meal down with a refreshing cocktail.

The weekend is your time to relax or have fun with friends; whichever you prefer, some morning drinks are a great way to start.

3. Take Your Time

The waiters and waitresses at brunch expect you to be at your table for a while. You can have a relaxing morning as you sleep in, then sit down at your table around 10 or 11. You can sit as long as you like with your party, ordering more drinks and food for the table, without feeling like you need to rush out the door.
