Best Breakfast – Midtown: Harry’s Restaurant

After the year we’ve all had, it’s nice to have a little creature comfort to rely on, and Harry’s provides just that.

Visit for endless cups of house drip alongside a stable of diner-style eye-openers — stacks of Texas-sized hotcakes, classic breakfast plates with fried eggs, sausage, and crispy hash browns; and the famous “pancake omelet,” in which a meaty, cheesy breakfast scramble gets wrapped up in a pancake blanket.
