Towne- Back Bay

Now it has been a while since I have shared my thoughts on the latest and greatest but please forgive me... I have had a very busy December. So lets get to it. I have frequented Towne twice this past month for brunch. Both times were pretty spectacular in terms of unique combinations in a cool ambiance.

My first brunching experience was for my Uncle's birthday. We had a great table upstairs overlooking the big caroling event outside of the Pru. Our waitress was very nice and attentive although I will say the service was slower than most places.

The tables were decorated with an old farmhouse feel which contrasted from the modern decorations throughout the place. The checkered napkins and  red and white tables gave a homey feel to our breakfast which we began with little doughnut holes and some poppyseed bread. These were delicious and I highly suggest coming hungry to Towne.

I ordered the roast beef hash which was amazing considering I am not a huge fan on roast beef. The crispy pieces were covered in over easy eggs and hollandaise sauce. Complemented with homefries, I was in heaven. Everything was perfectly cooked which set the scene for my New Years Day brunch fest at Towne.

My two friends and I decided we needed to ring in the New Year at a good spot in the middle of the city just for fun. Normally, we would have hit up a smaller venue where casual clothes are more acceptable but we dressed up and headed to Towne for our 1pm reservation.

Once again the service was a little slow but we passed the time with mimosas and poppyseed bread. I ordered the delicious and beautifully plated lobster cobb salad which was phenomenal. The lobster, avocado, bacon, eggs, onions, and lettuce were horizontally layed out on the plate which was accompanied by a giant puff of crispy bread. We enjoyed our table overloooking bustling New Years Day Boylston and talked about our fanastic party at the Liberty Hotel the night before.

I had also eaten at Towne for dinner and sat right next to the kitchen. They offer an assortment of breads and spreads to start. I had a wedge and the seared tuna which was absolute perfection.

Towne is a great spot for people looking to have a leisurely brunch or a nice night out for dinner. It isn't the fastest of places so plan your time accordingly. I would also recommend a reservation as is is a very trendy popular new spot in the city. The meals are perfect for one person if you are hungry and are all very scrumptious from what I have heard from my fellow diners. If you are looking for a drink before you eat the bar is a happening place as well!
