Whether you’re a local looking to get some morning after “hair of the dog” or just visiting this neck of the woods, we’ve rounded up a list of places at which to enjoy weekend-specific meals in and around Ditmas Park.

Only qualification is the restaurant should have a separate brunch menu, so if we’ve missed anything in that realm (or if you just want to shout out a dish you can’t get off your mind), let us know and we’ll add it to the list! And yes, we used “brunch” as a verb.
