Little Collins - The Only Midtown Spot Worth Queueing For! 🥑🍳
New York Brunch Obsession 📍 Little Collins, Midtown NYC – After tasting every hyped brunch spot (Chelsea Citizen’s dry bacon, Friedman’s meh menu, Dudley’s pancake-less weekdays), this cozy Aussie-inspired café on 44th St is my forever replay button—no contest. ✨ Why It’s Special: 🚌 Easy access – One M42 bus ride from home (no subway struggles!). 🍅 Shakshuka MVP – Runny eggs + tangy tomato sauce + perfectly charred pita = lick-the-plate good. 🍌 Banana Bread – Not too sweet, just moist + crumbly + addictive. 🥪 Eggplant Mushroom Panini – Umami bomb with melty cheese and earthy shrooms. ☕ Solid lattes – Though last visit’s was weaker (barista inconsistency?). 💡 Pro Tips: ⏳ Weekday mornings – Shorter lines (weekends = 30+ min wait). 📱 Order ahead – Grab-and-go banana bread for later cravings. 🥑 Secret hack – Add avocado to anything (they do it right). Perfect for: 👯 Girls catching up (cozy nooks!) 💻 Remote workers (strong WiFi + power outlets) 🍽️ "I want brunch now" moods 📍 Little Collins – Where every bite feels like Sydney sunshine. #NYCBrunch #MidtownEats #LittleCollins #NoBadMeals #NYCEats #BrunchLover #AussieCafe
