10 best brunch restaurants in the Stark County area
Who doesn’t love brunch?
With brunch, you get the delicious food that comes with a traditional breakfast without the early wake-up call. You can have your (pan)cake and eat it too.
Whether you’re dining out with a partner, a friend or the whole family, or you’re going on a double date or enjoying a girls’ day, brunch is always a hit.
For those who aren’t big on breakfast burritos or Belgian waffles, most brunch menus include lunch items. It’s a win for everyone.
And for those who appreciate a mimosa or bloody Mary early in the day, you’re in luck. Nobody will bat an eye if you order some booze with brunch. It’s a big part of some brunch menus.
Here are 10 of the best brunch restaurants in the Stark County area.
