I love this spot for low key brunch waffles and chicken are bangin! Love the bartender she was the sweetest! Service was attentive but not annoying:)

Food was good, but not great. Bland fries (seriously?). Waffles were good and the avocado toast was enjoyable! Service was terrible. FOH requires more training (including bartender and management!). Everyone was working hard, but not smart. Super loud music. Spaniards will roll over and die if they try the sangria. Espresso martini also bad. Please re-evaluate the drink recipes!

I recently visited The Bronx Public for a Sunday Brunch. It was easy to make a reservation, and we were seated quickly. The music was great, and so was the overall ambiance. Our server, Juan, was attentive and friendly. I chose the $40 brunch pre-fixe menu, which was a great value for the offerings. It included a bottomless drink choice of sangria or mimosas. Unfortunately, that is where the positivity in this review ends; the food arrived very quickly - alarmingly quick for food being made to order. We placed our order, and it was on our table within 5 minutes. This should have been a red flag for the dishes we ordered. My friend ordered the chicken and waffles, and I had the pancakes. While the food arrived warm, not hot - the pancakes were tough, and my friend's waffle was on the harder side. The maple syrup was very obviously imitation - think Mrs. Butterworth. Overall, our mediocre food choices were not a dealbreaker for us returning to this establishment. It's possible they have options we would prefer. However, the stomach ailment that took place in the following hours after brunch is the reason I will not come back. I will spare Yelp the gory details. The food arriving so quickly, combined with it being only slightly warm and slightly hard, leads me to believe that it was not made to order. This also makes me believe that the food is what contributed to my friend and I's very upset stomachs following our meal and drinks. While the music and service were great, the food was not worth risking illness for, so I will not be returning to the Bronx public.

The vibes and music were okay but the food was less than average. The service was average. My stomach has been on FIRE since I had brunch yesterday. The food tasted like it was cooked and reheated. I will not be coming back.

I have a list of spots to check out in the BX I showed up on a Friday evening. The waitress didn't say hello nor introduced herself she just asked what I wanted. She sat me at a wobbly table so i moved to another. I just bought 1 beer which never happens, after 30 minutes of me checking out the scene I left.

Made a reservation, and first impressions were good. the first seating they placed us had a broken table so they moved us which was nice they let us pick any spot. the place had Good ambiance with good music that set a good vibe and plenty of tvs to watch sports game. The service was good too our waiter always stopped by to check on us if we need anything. they also gave good recommendations on the menu. the beverages like the mule were good and the food was okay, albeit a bit overpriced for the area. we got quesadillas, wings, sliders, and 2 basket of fries with plenty of drinks. they also tacked on a mandatory 20% gratuity for a party of 3. the beverages were pretty good i enjoyed it. i'll definitely come back !
