"The Breakfast Club, a throwback ’80s diner, has an appropriately huge diner-style menu. Pancakes — as well as French toast and Belgian waffles — come with a choice of about 10 toppings, such as chunky monkey (bananas, chocolate chips, walnuts, and caramel sauce) and strawberry pecan. For an additional charge, diners can sub in gluten-free or whole-wheat pancakes." - Rachel Leah Blumenthal

Solid consistent breakfast items! This spot is great for take out or dine in because the quality is consistent regardless. The French toast and the chicken and waffle from my most recent visit were particularly tasty. The French toast had so many different types of sweetness that you never got fatigued from the sugar. The chicken and waffle was perfectly crispy and the BBQ sauce that was on the chicken even complimented the sweetness from the waffle.

Came here for brunch on a weekend at 11am and had to wait for 30 mins before we got a table. The food is decent and I enjoyed my omelette a lot. However, the seats are very cramped together and it is so so loud that sometimes it is difficult to have a conversation with others.

Solid brunch spot in Allston with a casual and laid-back vibes. Dropped by this place a couple times for brunch on weekdays. Since there aren’t a lot of typical American brunch spots in this area, the place gets crowded on the weekends, but the weekdays were nice and quiet. As a personal litmus test for breakfast spots, I like to compare the quality of freshly squeezed orange juice, which often mirrors the overall quality of the food. The Freshly Squeezed OJ here was on point - not overly sweet nor lacking in pulp. As expected from this result, the food here was a notch above typical diner fares. From their regular entrées, I had the Chicken & Waffles and the Chorizo & Spinach omelette. Waffle was soft and fluffy, and the combination of sweet BBQ sauce and small chunks of butter added an indulgent depth in each bite. The omelette was also generously packed with fillings, and I especially enjoyed the well-seasoned home fries. As expected from a brunch spot in Allston, they had Korean-inspired brunch dishes like the Bulgogi Benedict. Resting on a crispy English muffin, the Bulgogi, though slightly thicker and lighter in marinade than traditional preparations, brought a subtle sweetness that enhanced the dish. While it didn't pack the expected flavor punch, it was a dish that captured the essence of a satisfying fusion brunch. Overall, a good brunch spot with comforting twists. If you’re in the area for a satisfying breakfast or brunch, I highly recommend giving them a try.

I live in the north end and drive to get breakfast to this wonderful inviting spot. The food is first class and the service is second to none . From their own roasted coffee to the pancakes . Everything has a personal touch that’s just so hard to find these days . If anyone wants a family place that the owner is there and cares for what they provide , please try union you won’t be disappointed !

I was stoked to finally stop by @union as I’ve heard a lot of great things about and it did not disappoint. I knew I would not be disappointed the moment I first bit into the home fries. Let me tell you, they are not your average-joe home fries. I had the chipotle chorizo eggs Benedict and I still cannot stop thinking about it three days later. Highly recommend if you don’t mind a bit of a spicy kick. All the ingredients complement each other very well, like pb&j. Orange juice is freshly squeezed using the squeezer upon order. So fresh it’ll leave you feeling you’re OD’ing on vitamin c’s. Go get there early or call ahead and get your name on the list as it will get packed VERY quickly. Service is great, everyone is friendly. Great vibe and atmosphere - most importantly, food is something that’ll leave you longing for more and looking forward to your next visit. Make sure to call ahead and get on the waitlist. I’d give it six out of five stars. Ciao!

Good place to go for brunch. Few of us went for late lunch on a Saturday. We were greeted with a nice hostess. Most of the items we tried from the menu were delicious. Nutella French toast, Cajun hash brown and chickpea avocado sandwich were pretty good. Fresh orange juice and house coffee were better than most brunch place I have been. 4 stars because like most places they too have limited veg menu.

Enjoyed my brunch here. It was pretty chill and had the standard fair with some interesting fusion options. I opted for the bulgogi burrito. It was simple with egg, beef, and sauce but hit the spot for a carnivore. The waffles were nice and fluffy as well.
