    We really enjoyed the Sunday brunch prior to a show at Papermill. The food and service were great. The only thing that would have made it better was if the restaurant opened a little earlier. With a 1:30 show a 3 course brunch is a little rushed starting an noon. We had the maple cured bacon and hummus as the starters and the lobster bennies and the short rib fajitas as the mains. I had the flourless chocolate torte and hubby had a beverage. Very good deal for $35 per person. Definitely recommended.

The drinks were fantastic and perfectly crafted, and the service was impressively quick. Our server was incredibly attentive, making sure we had everything we needed without ever being intrusive. An all-around amazing dining experience. I can’t wait to come back!
