@UNION

@UNION serves breakfast, brunch and house-roasted coffee on Harvard Avenue. The family-owned café opened in 2009, and its menu leaves room for both a straightforward plate of eggs and something more involved. The Hash Napoleon combines corned beef hash, hash browns and eggs; the Egg Bomb stacks sausage, bacon, avocado and eggs on a bagel. Chicken and waffles comes with chili barbecue sauce.

Coffee is a reason to settle in here. The café roasts its own blend and offers bottomless house coffee with a dine-in meal. Sandwiches, salads and vegetarian choices such as smashed chickpea and avocado extend the menu beyond breakfast. It’s a daytime stop, with service ending in the afternoon, so put this one on the brunch list rather than the dinner list.
