    Really great and underrated restaurant in college park. I often forget how close this is to campus. I should definitely come here with friends more as it’s a nice space to hang out with really tasty food. A lot of vegan options for my vegan friends as well.

    This was the first time we came to the restaurant for breakfast. It was delicious! My sister and I ordered the Vanilla French Toast and we both loved them an almost finished eating them. She did order some bacon and it was cooked perfectly too. Our brother ordered the Breakfast Club Sandwich and he loved his meal too! It was a great day at the Breakfast Club! We will definitely go back to eat!

    Great selection of whiskey. Good food. Three different spaces for hanging out. The basement bar is lively but noisy. We hung out at the ground floor lounge which has comfortable seating and isn’t too noisy. There’s a penthouse space too with views of the city. I would go back.
