Northern Liberties Brunch Spot Makes the Yelp Top 100 Brunch Spots of 2024 List

The Yelp Top 100 Brunch Spots of 2024. Wouldn't we all love to try each and every spot? Everyone loves a good brunch. Technically a combination of late breakfast and early lunch, but really, the best food any time of day. The brunch menu doesn't make you choose between eggs and burgers. Why not both? Best of both worlds, and Yelp just released their list of the best places in the country to find brunch. If you live in Philly, one spot is pretty close to home.

Pennsylvania has only one restaurant represented on the Yelp Top 100 Brunch Spots of 2024 list this year, and it can be found in Northern Liberties in Philadelphia. Cafe La Maude. No stranger to best brunch lists, Cafe La Maude has established itself in Philly as the perfect option for more upscale brunch options and food presentation while still being affordable enough to visit every (other) Saturday.

On Yelp, Cafe La Maude has 1,814 reviews and rates 4.6 out of 5. The Yelp page has lots of customer posted yummy food photos to check out too. The restaurant serves French-Lebanese inspired dishes, and if you're up for a boozy brunch, feel free to BYOB.

There are no reservations, so it's first come, first served. There is indoor and outdoor seating, but after this Yelp brunch list inclusion, you may want to give yourself a bit of extra wait time for a table.

The restaurant describes itself as having the "authentic feel of a Parisian café and a colorful menu that’ll feast the eyes and delight the taste buds". I couldn't agree more. The staff is nice too, and even the name of the restaurant has some family history.

"Inspired by the savory flavors of their mother Maude’s home-cooked meals, from her childhood in Lebanon, Café La Maude is an ode to Nathalie Richan and her family history, traditions and culture. Nathalie and her husband Gabi run Café La Maude, which specializes in serving French-Lebanese inspired dishes."

With everything from Red Velvet Tiramisu Pancakes to Fish Tacos, check out the MENU for more on their specialties, and make a plan to stop by Cafe La Maude for brunch soon. Don't forget to BYOB!

Weekends are for brunching, and there are so many yummy Philadelphia brunch spots in the area. There are a number of essential places you have to try in Philly. After a long night, brunch is the perfect remedy.

Before we get into the brunch spots you need to try, we need to discuss how awesome this meal is. It's a combination of breakfast and lunch, arguably the two best meals of the day. You don't have to get up early to make brunch, either. Most brunch services go into the afternoon.  It's nothing like when you show up to your favorite fast food joint JUST as they're switching the breakfast menu over at 11 am sharp. There's more leeway with brunch. Thank goodness.

Plus, it's the perfect mix of sweet and savory. Healthy and greasy. You can get pancakes and bacon or avocado toast. You can get a walnut salad or a burger with a fried egg on top. It doesn't matter. There aren't restrictions of what flavor profile you should be eating at that time of day. If you want waffles at 1 pm, that's fine. A grain bowl at 9 am? Sure! It's so freeing.

These spots in Philly know just how important brunch is in society. That's why they offer it. If you're looking to engage in the great concept of brunch, look no further than this list to know where to go.

The Landing Kitchen is an all-day café. It's not stuffy. It's a great casual option for the beautiful combo of breakfast and lunch foods on the same menu. Their breakfast sandwiches are to die for. Try one of their "Walktails," a casual take on the mixed drinks we all know and love.

This is one of those quintessential brunch spots. They only serve breakfast, lunch, and brunch. They also, have six locations in Philly, making them seriously convenient to get to when you need a pick-me-up. The menu is LEGIT.

This is a magical place that serves breakfast ALL DAY. Honey’s Sit ‘N Eat a cool take on food. It's Tex-Mex and Jewish food combined. The owners drew from their Southern and East-Coast roots to make something truly unique. I mean where do you ever see "orange cardamom pancakes" on a menu? Here!

Tortas at brunch? Say less. Whats a torta, you ask? A cure-all. It's a classic Mexican sandwich, with breaded chicken, avocado, tomatoes, queso fresco, dijon, mayo, red onion, frito beans, homemade pickled jalapenos and carrots. La Llorona is a laid-back Mexican restaurant that doesn't shy away from the classics. Their brunch menu is super unique, and their omelettes feature all the kick you'd expect.

Cake has a stellar Sunday brunch. Being part restaurant, part bakery, their pastries are to die for. While you're there, you can actually place an order for a custom cake, which is so cool. Their breakfast burrito is jam packed and scrumptious. Plus, the interior is airy, light, and super pretty.

If you want to live out your fairytale tea party fantasy, hit up this spot in Chinatown. The Asian-European-fusion spot will be something unlike anything you've ever tried before. They have a wide assortment of teas and dainty pastries. You can grab a waffle or a sandwich if that's more your style.

Is it really a brunch list if we don't include The Love? The menu is stacked. The swanky spot is just steps away from Rittenhouse Square. The combo of indoor and outdoor seating makes it easy for you to get the experience you're looking for. Try their take on Nashville Hot Chicken if you need a spicy pick-me-up.
