    Brunch at the Glass House Tavern before yesterday’s matinee was great. Not crowded when we arrived at 11:45 but even when it was (by 12:30), the noise level was just fine. My Bloody Mary was delicious and my omelette was perfect. And no one rushed us out so we could linger over coffee. Really enjoyed our visit and will definitely be back!!
