The Best of 2024

Hello everyone! Thank you for your loyal following and I am looking forward to a great 2025. Speaking of which, I am going to kick it off by revisiting the best spots of 2024!

Best in Category

If you follow my blog then you know I love my categories. It is a fun way to research brunch spots and it has forced me to try places I may have otherwise overlooked. Brunch spot blog posts for 2024 were categorized into twelve categories. I will not be picking a best for my "Special Events" and "Destination Brunch" category because these are smaller and only have one or two selections. These categories will be a mainstay on this blog site and I will be adding to them through 2025. I regret to report a couple of the "Bests" closed since my original posts in 2024. For those "Bests" that are no longer with us, I will offer a "Runner Up".
