Butcher's Daughter

Brooklyn: Williamsburg, Greenpoint & Bushwick


This wryly named vegetarian restaurant is supremely relaxing, with a light-flooded dining room and rejuvenating (often vegan-friendly) meals. Brunch fans clamor for the French toast, gluten-free vegan waffles and curried avocado toast, always with a vitamin-packed juice or kick-ass espresso. Efficient service and primo people-watching make this a must-eat at weekends.
