In July, we reported that Brunch would move to a new location after closing the doors of its Westown location due to flooding.
Well, the day has arrived. Brunch Milwaukee has officially reopened its doors today in the new location across the river at 714 N. Milwaukee St.
In fact, the opening coincides with the release of an updated fall menu showcasing new dishes including a lox Benedict, sticky bun French toast and quinoa fried rice.
"It’s perfect timing," says general manager Tay Brittain. "We’ve just released our new fall menu items and our team is beyond excited for the new space, and to get back to serving our downtown Brunch fans!"
Grand opening party
To celebrate the reopening, Brunch Milwaukee will host a grand opening celebration on Saturday, Sept. 28 and Sunday, Sept. 29. During the two day extravaganza, guests can enjoy a free mimosa during their visit between 8 a.m. and 3 p.m. on both days. On Sunday, Molly Cruz from The Mix 99.1 will join in on the festivities.
"We couldn’t be more ready for our new location to be open!" notes Brunch owner Morgan Sampson. "Our team has put in a lot of work to make this happen in a timely fashion, and we can’t wait to celebrate our Grand Opening with our downtown guests!"
Brunch Milwaukee is open Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 3 p.m. and Saturday and Sunday from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m.
