Had the house roasted roasted sandwich today. Excellent, is was ::Yoda voice:. Very juicy with a generous helping of meat. Garlic aioli and oozing juices! Good steak fries too. A definite hit.

Boxcar is a very nice bar and brunch place. Good beer on tap. Great brunch. Fantastic friendly service on game 5 Nats night!

Just got a discount for being an LSU Tiger. Officially the best brunch spot in town. Also, cannot go wrong with the potato croquette.

Instead of being on two split halves of an English Muffin it was on toasted brioche—delicious. And, instead of thick slices of ham, there was thinly sliced prosciutto and sautéed baby spinach. Read more

Breakfast burrito was filling and appropriately priced. The huevos rancheros were on the small side and not that flavorful.

Great spot. But I don't understand why they put glass over the TVs. Makes it hard to watch sports because of the reflective glare on screen.

Good brunch! Strong mimosas! And go to eastern market afterwards.

Split a big bottle of Brooklyn Local with a friend. Or be your own friend and drink the whole thing!

The Welsh Rarebit is amazing!

Don't go on a weekday afternoon hoping to get decent service. You won't get it. Bartender ignores customers.

Don't bother with the Bloody Marys during brunch, they're pretty underwhelming
