Lori Luo: Italian-American dishes are executed to perfection at Hearth, under the watchful eye of Marco Canora. Get the meatballs and/or gnocchi, and don't forget an order of the apple cider donut holes.
Lisa Finn: Great brunch- light, yet filling. Everything on the plate is fresh and vibrant. Plus, they have an amazing bar selection of wines, ciders, and original takes on traditional brunch cocktails.
Kelly Kearns: Thank you to those that recommended the gnocchi, veal ricotta meatballs, and apple cider donuts. Tried lots of things but these were the stars of the show!

Jenna Fain: Cozy, dim bar with yummy grilled cheese and hard ciders.
Lizz Spano: In the winter come for the hot apple cider spiked with calvados. Great spot for day drinking and they make an awesome grilled cheese if you get hungry!
Sarah Sheldon: Love the hot apple cider on a cold day. Get it with applejack, it's less sweet than the bourbon.

Leela: There's a secret drink called the Hurricane, invented during Sandy when they were rapidly trying to get rid of warming tap beer. Includes cider, slightly sweet and soo delicious
Becca M: Most delicious 6 cheese grilled cheese and cider!
Nicole: Get some beer or super fresh-tasting cider and sit by the windows post-brunch. Friendly bartenders, but there can be a wait for a table.
