The best bottomless brunch in NYC right now, by value: Beso on Staten Island ($19.95 for 90 minutes, beer included), The Bonnie in Astoria ($25 with an entree), and Cantina Rooftop in Hell’s Kitchen ($25, Sundays only). Bottomless brunch is where ‘deal’ and ‘trap’ live closest together, a $30 headline can hide a required entree, a 60-minute clock, a 20% auto-gratuity, or a mimosas-only list dressed up as unlimited cocktails. This guide ranks 11 verified deals across Manhattan, Queens, Staten Island and the Lower East Side by what you actually get for the money: the price, the time cap, what’s really included, and the fine print. Grouped from best value up through the pay-up spots and the ones to skip.

Beso
The cheapest verified bottomless in the five boroughs, and it throws in beer, which almost nobody does. $19.95 buys 90 minutes of mimosas, sangria, Bloody Marys and draft beer at a Latin spot a five-minute walk from the Staten Island Ferry. The Verdict: if you’re already riding the boat for the skyline, brunch here and you’ve spent less than one Manhattan cocktail. The Honest Caveat: the exact start time and the food-purchase rule aren’t posted online, so call ahead before you plan a group around it. Worth the ferry.

The Bonnie On now
The value pick with a real kitchen behind it. $25 gets you 90 minutes of mimosas, a proper Bonnie Bloody Mary, seasonal sangria and Bitburger pilsner, and you order a brunch entree to go with it, the way bottomless should work. The Local Move: it’s a whole-table deal, everyone starts and ends together, so bring people who’ll actually drink, not one friend nursing a coffee. Sat and Sun, 10am to 3:30pm, reservations recommended because Astoria knows. The Why: real drinks, fair price, food you’d order anyway. This is the bar the pricier spots should be measured against.

Cantina Rooftop On now
A rooftop bottomless for $25 is the kind of math that usually hides a catch, and here the catch is the calendar. The $25, 90-minute unlimited mimosas-and-sangrias deal is Sunday only; Saturday is a different, pricier setup ($38 for an entree and a bottle). The Verdict: come Sunday or don’t come for the deal. It’s mimosas and sangria, not full cocktails, with a live DJ and a retractable roof so weather isn’t a dealbreaker. The Honest Caveat: no card to book, they text to confirm, and the 90-minute table limit is firm. Go Sunday, go early, and read the day before you reserve.

The $29–$30 middle
Solid deals where the fine print decides whether it’s worth it. Pair with a cocktail bar after.
Añejo
The clean $29 deal that hides behind a $55 headline. Añejo’s own brunch menu lists 90 minutes of blanco margaritas, Bloody Marias, red sangria and mimosas for $29 with any entree, solid, especially the margaritas. But you’ll see a ‘$55 all-inclusive’ floating around on social; that’s a different, upsold package (drinks plus guac, an entree and dessert). The Local Move: book the $29 and add what you actually want a la carte. Two locations, 10th Ave in Hell’s Kitchen and Church Street in Tribeca, both weekends. The Why: the base deal is genuinely good tequila-brunch value; just make sure you’re ordering the number you meant to.

Boqueria On now
The reliable group move, with a fork in the road. The $29 free-flow gets you 90 minutes of unlimited sangria (tinta, blanca or rosada) or mimosas alongside Barcelona-style tapas: croquetas, tortilla, patatas bravas. The $35 deluxe adds Estrella, Bloody Marys, a shishito margarita and cava. The Verdict: for a birthday table that wants to share plates and keep glasses full, this is the low-drama pick, and it runs at several Manhattan locations so you can usually get in. The Honest Caveat: 20% service charge for six or more. The Why: it does exactly what it says, which on this list is its own kind of achievement.

Calle Dao On now
The longest drink list on this page, on the shortest clock. $29.99 unlocks mimosas, Bellinis, margaritas, Cuba Libres, sangria, guava screwdrivers, house wine, champagne and nine beers, genuinely the widest pour here. The catch is the timer: 60 minutes, not the usual 90. The Verdict: worth it only if you treat it like a sprint and everyone at the table drinks (they all have to opt in anyway). The Honest Caveat: 20% gratuity auto-adds for five or more, there’s a 3% card fee, and you’ll need a brunch entree or sandwich too. Great if you’re fast. A trap if you linger over one round and watch the hour evaporate.

Turtle Bay Tavern
A straightforward Midtown East pour with one thing to double-check: the address. $30 buys 90 minutes of Bloody Marys, mimosas, Bellinis and Tavern margaritas with your brunch. The Verdict: no rooftop, no DJ, no gimmick, a neighborhood tavern doing an honest weekend bottomless, which is fine when that’s what you want. The Honest Caveat: this is Turtle Bay Tavern at 975 2nd Ave, not the old ‘Turtle Bay’ a couple of doors down at 987, which closed. Confirm you’re booking the right one. A dependable fallback when the flashier spots are full.

Dos Caminos
The tourist-zone option, priced like one. Dos Caminos runs a $30, 90-minute bottomless, mimosas, Bloody Marys, frozen margaritas, screwdrivers, but it stacks on top of a required brunch entree, so the real cost lands north of $45 a head. The Verdict: only worth it if you’re already in Times Square and not trying to trek. Once the SoHo, Park Avenue and Meatpacking locations closed, the 1567 Broadway spot is the last one standing, so ignore any other Dos Caminos bottomless you see quoted online. Go Here Instead: if you can leave the Theater District, Calle Dao a few blocks east gives you a much bigger list for about the same money.

Premium pours & fine-print traps
The pay-up tier: one that earns it on time, two that don’t. Read before you book.
The Ainsworth
The best time-to-price ratio in Manhattan, if you plan to settle in. $45 buys a full two hours (most of this list caps at 90 minutes) of mimosas, Bellinis, sangrias, screwdrivers and domestic beers with a brunch dish. The Verdict: the price looks high next to the $25-30 spots until you do the math on the extra half-hour and the broad list, and then it’s the one that rewards a long, lazy table. The Local Move: go with a group that wants to linger over the second and third round, not a grab-and-go crowd. The Honest Caveat: it’s a whole-table deal, so everyone’s in for the $45.

Pulperia
Where the fine print does the real damage. Pulperia’s bottomless starts at $40 for mimosas only and climbs to $60 for the mix-and-match cocktail list, and then adds a $50-per-guest food-and-drink minimum and a 20% service charge on every party, big or small. The Verdict: by the time you’re out the door, this is one of the most expensive brunches on the page, and the $40 tier is mimosas-only, which is exactly the watered-down setup we warn about. Skip It unless you’re specifically after the $60 cocktail package and know the minimums going in. The whole table has to participate, too.

Essex On now
The priciest 90 minutes here, for the narrowest list. Essex charges $49.95 (that price includes your entree) for mimosas, Aperol spritzes, Bloody Marys, screwdrivers and Narragansett draft, and that’s it. No wine, no margaritas, no real cocktails. The Verdict: a Lower East Side institution with a fun room, but as a bottomless value it’s the clearest mimosas-on-a-stopwatch on this page. Skip It for the deal; go for the scene if someone else is paying. Go Here Instead: for LES bottomless energy at a saner list-to-price ratio, you’re better off crossing to a $29-30 spot and ordering what you actually want.

Bottomless Brunch NYC: FAQ
How much is bottomless brunch in NYC?
Most run $25-$35 for 90 minutes with a required entree. The cheapest verified deal is Beso on Staten Island at $19.95 (beer included); mid-range spots like Añejo, Boqueria and Calle Dao sit around $29-$30; premium ones like The Ainsworth ($45, two hours) and Essex ($49.95) run higher.
What’s the time limit on bottomless brunch?
Ninety minutes is the standard, timed from when you sit. The Ainsworth is the exception at a full two hours; Calle Dao is the shortest at 60 minutes. The clock is usually firm, so show up on time.
Do you need a reservation for bottomless brunch in NYC?
Yes, book ahead – the good ones fill on weekends. Most are whole-table deals (everyone participates and starts together), and some, like Cantina Rooftop, confirm by text rather than card. Reserve early for groups.
What’s the catch with bottomless brunch?
Read for four things: a required entree on top of the drink price (Dos Caminos), a short clock (Calle Dao’s 60 minutes), auto-gratuity and minimums (Pulperia’s 20% plus a $50 food-and-drink minimum), and a mimosas-only list sold as ‘unlimited cocktails’ (Essex). The price you see is rarely the price you pay.
Where’s the best-value bottomless brunch in NYC?
Beso on Staten Island ($19.95 with beer) and The Bonnie in Astoria ($25 with an entree) are the best straight value. The Ainsworth gives the most time (two hours for $45). Boqueria is the easiest for groups, running the deal at several Manhattan locations.
