    My favorite brunch place!!! The vibes are impeccable, cutest place ever, everything I’ve tried on the menu is phenomenal. The pastries look fake they’re so beautiful. I have nothing bad to say about this place, worth every minute we waited in line. Pro-tip for Sunday mornings: put your name down then go grab a coffee at Frothy Monkey and walk around 12 South while you wait for your turn. I also appreciate all the gluten free options and the clear labeling on the menu, the staff is very knowledgeable as well.

    the waitlist is an outrageous process. i joined the waitlist at 10am expecting it to be 2 hours. at 11:45 I was 4 in waitlist. I arrived at BMR at 12 to check in, but we were not sat until 1pm. 10+ parties were sat after our check in even though our position in the waitlist never changed. the food was tasty, but i cannot give an accurate analysis due to my hunger and frustration associated with the wait. also, our “starter” did not arrive as a starter but with the meal. too be honest, i will not likely return.

    Good brunch food. Variety of pastry options. Love that you can walk in and grab pastries to go. Also they have a decent parking lot.

    Fabulous food and even better service. The wait was long but the local shopping nearby made it go faster. The shrimp and pork belly grits was amazing and the pastries are phenomenal. The best part of the experience was our server. Ari was so personable and professional. Definitely one of the best servers anywhere!

    Such a cool atmosphere and the food was delicious. The one downside was the long wait, which is expected with a great place that is in high demand. Overall big fan and will definitely be returning!

    Helps to be on the waiting list and getting a drink/ pastry makes the time fly by. Good food and bright and open atmosphere.

    Brunch was okay, nothing special, definitely not worth the waitlist. I’m a little confused why it’s so popular. Food was good but not something amazing. Honestly the pancakes were a little too thick and salty

    We could not have been more pleased. A friend recommended it and I’m so glad she did. Many of us had different brunch items and everything was impeccable. We will be back for sure!

    Went around 11 on a Sunday. They don’t take reservations so we put our name on the waitlist and walked to all the shops around while we waited. The server was very attentive and friendly. It did take a while to get our food but it was very busy. All the good was amazing and generous portions. The biscuits and croissants were buttery and soft. Lots of breakfast choices and good drinks
