When I lived in east campus my freshman and sophomore years my friends and I went to brunch at Warren every single week. Now that we live at different ends of campus, we haven&#8217;t been able to all convene for Sunday brunch at Warren yet this semester. However, we&#8217;ve explored some off-campus spots a few times this past month.<\/p>\n<p>Here is a list of my favorite brunch spots in and around Boston:<\/p>\n<p>5. Crispy Crepes Cafe<\/p>\n<p>This place defined my freshman year. Located on Park Drive in South Campus, this is the go-to place for&#8230; take a guess&#8230; crepes. I would always order a Nutella and banana crepe, but recently I tried a savory crepe for the first time&#8211; the Santa Fe. Crispy Crepes Cafe is awesome because it&#8217;s cheap, no-frills and has a packed menus of everything from crepes to standard breakfast to Middle Eastern delicacies like falafel and shawarma.<\/p>\n<p>4. Trident Booksellers &amp; Cafe<\/p>\n<p>You can wander through aisles of books and salivate over the pages of cookbooks as you wait for a table at this popular Newbury Street eatery. They serve what they call &#8220;perpetual breakfast,&#8221; which has a lot of options to equally satisfy meat-eaters and vegetarians. My favorite thing to order is a specialty tea because it comes in your own mini tea pot.<\/p>\n<p>3. @Union<\/p>\n<p>A few weekends ago I dragged my friends out of bed for my birthday brunch (only I would host a bday brunch) at @Union on Harvard Ave. in Allston. @Union is always super busy because it&#8217;s good food for on-the-cheap. They always serve seasonal coffee drinks and they allow for refills on regular cups of coffee. The last time I was there I ordered a soy cappuccino and Caprese eggs benedict, which was meatless, with traditional Hollandaise sauce, fresh mozzarella and tomato slices. SO GOOD.<\/p>\n<p>2. The Regal Beagle<\/p>\n<p>My family and I discovered this hole-in-the-wall on Harvard St. in Brookline during their recent visit to Boston. EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS PLACE IS AMAZING. Their brunch menu is small, but offers a great variety of creative dishes and twists on classics like a veggie burger topped with a fried jalapeno, pico de gallo and queso fresco. It&#8217;s cozy and they play hootenanny music, Mumford and Sons and Bob Dylan.<\/p>\n<p>1. Allston Diner<\/p>\n<p>This tiny place on Cambridge St. in Allston doesn&#8217;t allow parties bigger than four, so it&#8217;s great for an intimate group. There&#8217;s tons of options for vegans and vegetarians. I recently ordered chicken and waffles. It was straight up heaven.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hey Everyone!
