INWOOD — Five years ago, there was one meal you could not eat uptown — brunch.

But now the breakfast-lunch hybrid that was once the preserve of downtown is prominent  on Inwood menus with distinctive egg dishes, specialty drinks and outdoor eating options.

Inwoodites have welcomed a new way to enjoy the weekend and, as with all things in this part of the city, restaurateurs are finding new ways to put that uptown mark on a lazy weekend favorite.

Locals who know where to go can find delicious and different deals from Dyckman Street to Indian Road and everywhere in between, whether it’s bottomless drinks and a lively street scene, or live music and a neighborhood hangout where everyone knows your name.
