Nolita Hall brunch tips
The cinnamon roll is the star: this giant, warm, gooey cinnamon roll is worth the trip alone. If you're sharing plates, make this the first thing you order before it runs out.
Hot honey pizza works at brunch too: the wood-fired hot honey pizza with pepperoni and ricotta is a local favorite. Order it for the table alongside your traditional brunch plates.
Expect a beautiful, bustling space: the interior has high ceilings, a hanging plant wall, and a working departure board that gives it an airport lounge feel. It's loud but lively, with a party-ready vibe.
Come with friends and share everything: the best brunch here involves ordering multiple dishes to split. The space is designed for groups and has both indoor and outdoor seating.
Order the lomo pizza sarni: this sandwich eats like a pizza-torta hybrid. It’s bold, smoky, and perfect if you can’t decide between a brunch handheld and a slice.
Patio is dog-friendly and ideal on sunny days: the patio area is shaded and welcoming for dogs. It's a solid pick if you're looking for a laid-back seat with great lighting and breeze.
Use the paid lot at Juniper and India for stress-free parking: street parking around Nolita Hall is limited, especially on weekends. Head straight to the paid lot at the corner of Juniper and India for the easiest access without circling the block.
Save room for the crispy honey butter toast: if you’re looking for a sweet finish, this thick-cut toast is layered with vanilla mascarpone and drizzled with dulce de leche. It’s crunchy on the outside, soft in the middle, and makes a great shareable dessert to end the meal.

CONTRIBUTOR
Brunch at Nolita Hall feels like walking into a very cool, very well-lit party that happens to serve really good food. The space is gorgeous. High ceilings, plants draped from rafters, sunlight coming through the massive skylight, and a massive Euro-style ticker board scrolling flight times just because it can. I started with the B.A. cinnamon roll, which landed on the table looking like dessert and breakfast had joined forces. It’s made with Japanese milk bread and comes layered with strawberry jam, cream cheese whip, and shortbread crumble. It somehow manages to be rich without being overwhelming. The chilaquiles are still a standout, all crunch and salsa roja with sunny-side eggs and crema. And the hot honey pizza really does earn its reputation. It’s got just enough heat to balance the sweetness and makes you rethink having pizza before noon. Drinks are balanced, brunchy, and strong enough to justify a second. The Bloody Marys come fully loaded and the michelada has just enough kick to wake you up without stealing the show. Staff was warm, relaxed, and ready to roll with the fact that our table turned into a three-hour affair. Come with a group and order everything. You won’t leave with regrets unless you skipped the cinnamon roll. Don’t skip the cinnamon roll.
