Brunch
Facts, tips and ideas about Brunch — and how to find people for it.
Did you know?
Brunch was invented in the 19th century for people who wake up too late for breakfast.
The term “brunch” was coined in 1895 by the British writer Guy Beringer in an essay titled “Brunch: A Plea” — his proposal: a later, more sociable meal on Sunday, instead of getting up early to serve the hunting party a classic breakfast.

Tip
Make it potluck-style. Everyone brings something — more variety, less cost.
Everyone brings the breakfast of their childhood. Toast and jam turn into stories.
Plan something savory AND something sweet. Brunch is the only meal where egg dishes and pancakes work side by side — the combination is the meal.
