Best brunch in SoHo

No. 4 on that list
Worth it
What I wrote thereFold it away

Thankfully, everything tastes as great as it looks. I recommend splitting the famous blueberry and maple pancakes with the table before flirting with the entree menu. I’m partial to the Smashing Avocado (multigrain toast, pickled onion, feta, beetroot hummus) and the Chorizo Breakfast Burrito, but everything on the menu is bound to impress.

The kind staff, beautiful setting, and top-notch drinks make Citizens one of the best coffee shops in SoHo. I recommend ordering the Smashing Avocado, a really good combination of multigrain toast, pickled onion, feta, and beetroot hummus for a delicious and memorable meal.

What I wrote thereFold it away

I recommend ordering the Smashing Avocado (multigrain toast, pickled onion, feta, beetroot hummus). Some would argue this is the prettiest avocado toast in NYC, and I can’t say I’d disagree. Pair it with a cup of fresh coffee and it’s easy to understand why Citizens is one of the best restaurants in SoHo.
