Brunch perfection in the East Village! Post is a hidden gem tucked away on E 3rd--equal parts cozy café, elevated diner, and effortlessly cool East Village hangout. The moment you walk in, you're hit with warm vibes, friendly staff, and the scent of buttery biscuits and fresh coffee. I came here for brunch and wow. The vegan biscuits & mushroom gravy were insanely good--comfort food with real flavor. My friend got the classic breakfast sandwich and said it was the best bacon-egg-cheese combo he's had in NYC. Their cocktails were on point too (highly recommend the spicy bloody mary). The space is bright and inviting with cute retro touches and a great backyard patio that feels like a mini escape from the city noise. Bonus: the menu has plenty of plant-based options without sacrificing taste or creativity. Whether you're hungover, on a brunch date, or just craving great food in a chill spot, Post delivers. Will 100% be back!

Hot sauce
Lynne C.

POST was good overall and the restaurant itself is super cute with outdoor seating. It's on the pricier side, but the food was solid. I had the fried chicken biscuit, which was crispy and fresh, and I really liked the house-made hot sauces, especially the jalapeño one. The iced latte I got was good as well. The overall service was great. Everything came quickly and our server was very attentive.

Had a birthday brunch for a friend here with a group of people. I presumed we had a reservation as the place was packed. We were seated in the back (this was in September so it was still nice and warm out). I do have to say that the white fence reflects heat so you may feel like the back of your head is burning if you happen to sit behind it. I had the Fried Chicken Biscuit ($19), which had this sausage gravy dumped on, so you'll want to eat with a fork and knife instead of your hands. This was freakin delicious. Who knew fried chicken, sausage gravy, and a nicely buttered biscuit tastes great together. We also ordered two basket of Truffle Fries ($14) to share with the table. It was a pretty good size basket where we probably could have done away with just one order between the 8 of us. They taste as good as you'd expect them to be. Overall it was a great experience.

The service was absolutely fantastic! Our waiter and host were super attentive, making us feel genuinely welcomed. I had the best cappuccino of my life--seriously, I'm still thinking about it. Unfortunately, my pancake didn't live up to the hype. Overall, the food grade is still pending, so for now I'm giving it a 3/5. On a completely different note... there's a horrible photo in the bathroom of a naked man with acne on his back that made me want to vomit. Seriously, they need to remove it. Amazing vibes, though--I'll definitely be back for another cappuccino (and maybe a redo of that pancake).

Lovely little brunch spot! We came into Post on a Saturday morning for a quick brunch. We were very pleasantly surprised with our experience! All of us got different biscuit sandwiches and not a single complaint was heard around the table. It's definitely a no-frills type of establishment as when you order the biscuit sandwich that's all you really get - no sides, but you can obviously order them should you want them. Service was wonderful and they got us in and out pretty quick which was what we were looking for, but had we been desiring a longer brunch we might not have enjoyed this so much. Ambiance is great and truly needs nothing. Overall, we really enjoyed our experience at Post and will be back soon!

Brunch

We decided to eat here on a Sunday and it was fairly empty for brunch! There were a few tables but it usually is filled to the brim at their old location. I guess now that they have a new space it's much larger and roomier than expected. Meaning there's tables where you can chat and hang out w friends. For drinks we got the dirty pumpkin spice horchata with oat milk (yes you can ask for it to be made non dairy!) and it was pretty good! We got a few chicken biscuits and a bacon biscuit with gravy on the side and some fries! Everything tasted okay - it wasn't that warm when we received it but flavors in general were simple and not genuine southern but a plainer take on it. I think the disappointing part was mainly that it didn't come hot and I wish that my fried chicken was at least piping hot with oil or something. The window is also open to the public so we had a homeless person badgering us and yelling racist comments at us as we sat near the window. Overall it was an okay experience- I'm not really counting the last part to the review but just putting it out there.

Sausage Biscuit
Jessica Y.

I'm not really a biscuit gal to begin with and I actually wanted to come here for the pancakes, but this spot ended up being such a nice surprise! I made a reservation for 1 PM on a Sunday and the rest of my party was running a bit late. The host was super kind and didn't give me any trouble about this and even offered to let me sit at the bar while waiting for my friends. In terms of the food, the biscuit sandwiches are super filling. The contents of the sandwich themselves were nothing wild, but these were some of the best biscuits I've had. I actually ate my sandwich as more of an open face sandwich and took the top half of my biscuit home to air fry and enjoy later. Also, don't sleep on their blueberry pancakes!! This is a cute spot for brunch and pretty easy to get a resy, so definitely check it out if you're in the area!

Sausage Biscuit
Deya M.

Dropped by POST for a brunch on Saturday morning. i had heard great things about my friends who lived in LES so I was excited to try it out. The reservation process online was simple enough and I was able to snag a table for four. Upon arrival, we were seated immediately. The decor was very modern, cute, and chic. To start, I decided to try the grapefruit mimosa. It tasted as expected and was refreshing. For my main, I went with the sausage biscuit. I usually don't love chicken sausage but I will say, this one tasted like the real deal. However, to me, the breakfast sandwich itself fell a bit flat. Everything was well made but the sandwich was well...basic. There weren't any standout flavors and it was a bit dry. I did put some hot sauce on it, which helped the case, but overall, I was not impressed. The salad on the side, however, was super yummy and I would love to get that again. In summary, POST is a solid brunch place. I just didn't think it was anything overly unique.

Post Breakfast
Rochelle N.

Such a cute little spot in the East Village! I made a reservation for two a day before and there was plenty of availability for Sunday morning. The vibes of the place were nice and the bar area looked awesome. I had the post breakfast and my friend had the french toast. The post breakfast tasted super fresh. The eggs were cooked well. The portion of the avocado and potatoes were amazing. I think my favorite part though was the charred tomato. We were skeptical of the french toast because it was made with a baguette but the flavors were absorbed well without the bread being too hard or becoming soggy. The blueberries were to die for! The waitress was super nice and though we were there for a while we were never pressured to leave. Definitely check out this spot for brunch!

Fried Chicken Biscuit
Maggie B.

I came here for a late brunch on a Sunday. We sat in their back patio, which was sunny and bright, with string lights and trees. The tables had wooden slat tops. There were pretty big gaps in between the slats and some were uneven, so it was a bit precarious for glasses and utensils. To drink, I had the post champagne cocktail. Despite apparently having rhubarb and bitters in it, to me it just tasted like dry champagne. I still enjoyed it. To eat, I got the avocado biscuit. This was a very filling dish. The biscuit was large and square with about five or six fluffy, flaky layers. It was nicely complemented by the fried egg and avocado. I could've done without the tomato. It was a tiny bit on the dry side so it would've been perfect with a sauce. We did ask for hot sauce and they brought both a red and green option. The red tasted like sriracha and the green was okay, but not very spicy. Overall though, I enjoyed this dish. My sister got the fried chicken biscuit and it was also a generous portion size. We shared the truffle fries. These were crispy and tasty. I enjoyed the rosemary seasoning and accompanying aioli. I wish the parmesan adhered to the fries a bit more. Definitely a good option for brunch.

Lunch Burger
Brenda C.

Psst excuse me!! Was what my friend and I heard while trying to find a place to eat (after walking out of a different place we decided not to try). A random woman on the street suggested "her favorite" Post restaurant. We checked out the menu and headed over. Two guys were holding down the fort lol and doing a great job considering the volume of patrons. Nice music playing in the background and not too loud which I don't like (no one wants to shout at each other while eating). We were seated quickly, 2 glasses and bottle of water was given to us immediately and the menus. It appears the one popular item and what most of the customers ordered were the meals with biscuits. I am not such a biscuit fan but after seeing three plates being bought out I on my next visit might want to reconsider ordering it (the dishes looked really appealing). My friend ordered a burger with fries that looked delectable but sadly I am dieting so I couldn't order the same I selected the hot honey salad. The salad consisted of arugula, pickled onions, yam cubes and a hot honey dressing and let me tell you the dressing was hot a good hot (spicy). Our waiter did tell me the dressing was in fact hot but I didn't believe him.....I think I drank the equivalent of 2 liters of water as my friend laughed at me the entire time lol. Restaurant is brightly lit painted all white and sparsely decorated but they make up for it with freshly made, perfectly spiced quality meals. Everything we ordered from food to drinks was exactly how we asked for.....the service was perfect.

We went for my friend's bachelorette during the middle of the day and even though it was quiet our experience was anything but because it was so great! first of all, as a person with dairy allergy issues it was nice to go somewhere that had options. A big win right out the get. But then the cocktails, I love a fancy well priced drink. Our server was lovely and kept the good vibes going. I haven't even mentioned how cute this place is, the decor is such a vibe. Y'all, this spot is great whether you're celebrating, catching up, or maybe even if you're looking for a good date night. Definitely recommend.

The abyss section has some cocktails that are limited to two per customer. They have some bar bites like fried green tomatoes, shrimp toast, broiled oysters, ricotta, dumplings, sliders.

Our friends raved about this place and we of course were excited (and a bit skeptical at first) to try it. The concept: no menu + no lights + a few questions = the ultimate cocktail experience. The speakeasy vibe and the dark ambiance really makes this place feel even more exclusive. With just a few tables and the bar setting, you're in for an experience you won't forget (unless you answer the wrong questions and really end up with a drink you don't like HA). This wasn't my case. Of course I described my two favorite things: Negroni + mezcal. The obvious answer would be a mezcal Negroni, but that's not why one comes to a place like Attaboy. Our amazing curator came by to ask us all a few questions, write down a few words in the napkins, and mix up the perfect drink that our master bartender crafts, curates and creates. My drink came as I couldn't possibly imagine. It looked like a Negroni smelled like Oaxaca, with all the smoke simmering up and preparing my sensory experience, leading to the best first sip. Ladies and gentleman, I introduce you to The Devil's Backbone. A perfectly balanced drink I'll never forget, one that is sipped slowly and enjoyed thoroughly. It's sexy, it's smoky it's sipped. Attaboy gave the best mixology experience and we can't wait to be back. Pro tip: be sure to be as vocal as possible, even with ice, so you don't end up with a tiki drink if that's not your vibe.

He even chatted with us for a bit after to tell us more about attaboy. I'm rounding up to 5 stars but I will say our experience with the "bouncer" was a bit unpleasant. He called us to let us know our table was ready but we missed the call (our fault). We returned the call immediately and got there within a couple minutes anyway. We were ready to patiently wait for the next availability but were met with some attitude and unnecessary comments from him during the waiting experience.

Tucked into the Financial District, this spot blends old New York history with some of the best cocktails in the city--and it's easy to see why it's been named "World's Best Bar" more than once. The name itself has a wild backstory, inspired by a notorious 19th-century Irish-American gang from Five Points. It adds a layer of character to the place, but what really keeps people coming back is the atmosphere and the drinks. The space is split into two levels: a two lively, sawdust-floored Taprooms downstairs and a more refined Parlor upstairs if you're in the mood for a quieter, cocktail-focused experience. Drinks are the real highlight here. The Irish Coffee is widely considered one of the best in the world--rich, smooth, and perfectly balanced with whiskey, coffee, and fresh cream. They also get creative with variations like a frozen version and even an Irish Coffee martini. If you want something different, the "Act Naturally" is a standout, mixing Irish whiskey with Guinness and fig in a way that works. Food is just as impressive for a bar. The lobster deviled eggs (topped with caviar) are a must-try, and the menu leans into elevated comfort food. Overall, The Dead Rabbit nails the balance between historic charm and modern cocktail excellence. The D.R. is one of those places that is never boring and consistently delivers.

Too cramped to be comfortable, proving that small does not necessarily mean cozy! We asked if we could take a chair from the table next to us, which was empty (it was only 6 pm; I told our server we'd be gone by 7 because my friend, the birthday girl, had to catch a show.) We were told No! To say the waiter was cold, unfriendly, and indifferent is generous. He was totally rude. He literally told my friend she couldn't sit in a chair that was otherwise empty, knowing we'd be leaving momentarily. Then he had the gail to hand me the bill with a 22% tip pre-selected...and watched over me while I signed it! Definitely the least satisfying $100 I have ever spent. Disappointing.
