After hearing a lot about Grumpy's Cafe in Tremont, and never making it there because I usually ended up at that other Tremont Brunch Joint - Lucky's Cafe, I finally made it out there over the past weekend.
And my first comment is that it really isn't a matter of Lucky's OR Grumpy's. Lucky's AND Grumpy's compliment each other perfectly.
Whereas Lucky's Cafe is excellent highbrow, customised brunch with a flair, Grumpy's serves up perfect renditions of the classic brunch. You will not find any Tofu Shipwreck dishes here. What you will find, however, are perfectly executed flapjacks, amazing Eggs Benedict, Heavenly French Toast, and Coffee served up by the large steaming mugful. All at half the price you've come to expect from Lucky's Cafe.
Brunch just got a hell of a lot better. :D
