Here’s the 10 best brunch spots in Clinton Hill.

SoCo

SoCo is a southern fusion restaurant that offers exciting menu items even more delicious than they sound. With stellar dishes like sweet potato pancakes and lobster alongside shrimp and grits, this inviting restaurant and cocktail bar is a must for anyone looking for unique and unbelievably tasty food.

Mekelburg’s

Belli Osteria

For a boozy brunch, look no further than Belli Osteria. Among their many selling points is their unlimited mimosas or Bloody Marys for 90 minutes. Their menu is small but comprehensive, covering favorites like huevos rancheros, waffles, and eggs Benedict, alongside more unusual brunch fare like polenta.

Aita

Aita boasts a hearty brunch menu. From berry pancakes with ricotta cream to their selection of pasta dishes, their mid-price brunch is rich and truly Italian-inspired. Although the entire menu is delicious, some customer favorites include the oxtail burger and the ‘holy scramble,’ which is an egg dish with shrimp, asparagus, and cherry tomatoes. The rustic atmosphere makes it ideal for a casual meal on a weekend afternoon.

Hill Café

Hill Café offers a seasonal menu, which includes a vegetarian section as well as a selection of brunch cocktails. With variety ranging from merguez a cheval (a North African sausage dish) to chicken and waffles, Hill Café is sure to have a stellar entrée to whet every appetite. In addition to the Hill Bellini and standard brunch cocktails, they offer unique non-alcoholic beverages like homemade hibiscus tea and ginger juice.

Marietta

Marietta brings a southern culinary flare to Brooklyn brunch. Their menu offers a range of egg dishes, from eggs Benedict to scrambled eggs, as well as a grass-fed Marietta burger and chicken and toast for the lunch-geared crowd. Brunch is served from 11am to 4pm on weekends in this casual Clinton Hill café.’
