Brunch Club | Abuja

📍 45, Gana St, Maitama

So I celebrated my birthday (23.3) a day before (22.3) because Ramadan was expected to begin on the 23rd. And if you know me, you know Brunch is a MUST on my birthday.

Brunch Club’s Instagram feed had been entering my eye a lot lately so I decided I wanted to try it again. This was my second time visiting, so you can read about that first by clicking here!

AMBIENCE:

Nothing much had changed with the space. The only notable difference was the outdoor space which had a few more elements added to it like plants, new seating etc.

FOOD:

The menu had expanded from last time with a few changes as well! Going in, I decided to keep an open mind on what to have, although I knew I wanted both sweet & savoury.

Mint Lemonade – N3,500

Drinks first! Lemonades are usually the safest item to order. This was quite refreshing!

Southern Texas Chicken ‘N’ Waffles – N6,500

(waffles, honey, butter, breaded chicken fillet, maple gravy, micro greens)

First off, I liked that it was a breaded fillet as opposed to bone-in chicken. This made it easier to eat. The chicken wasn’t over cooked. It was tender & had the right seasoning.

If you look closer, you would notice that cornflakes was used as a coating instead of regular bread crumbs. Loved it.

Waffles could have been softer. I had to run my knife through quite a few times to segment a piece.

The fruits were are also a good addition, although there were no micro greens on my plate.

Mac ‘N’ Cheese Cajun Style – N6,000

(elbow pasta, cheddar & mozzarella cheese, cajun seasoning, parmesan, herbs)

There’s no way I’ll see mac & cheese on a menu & not try it! Not the best I’ve had, but I would say it was pretty decent.

It needed a pinch more of salt and some more mozzarella cheese to make it slightly more ‘gooey’. The cheddar made it quite thick & dry. Chicken was moist & full of flavor! That, I liked.

Spicy Chicken Wings

Couldn’t find this on the menu for the price, but it was your regular Nigerian spicy chicken wings, nothing really screamed, ‘I’m different’.

SERVICE:

Overall, service was alright, they were cute with their ‘happy birthdays’ and making me feel special.

Our waitress was also nice & knew her onions. Food & Drinks came out in a timely fashion, didn’t have to wait long.

SALMAH’S SIDENOTE:

Go during the week, it way quieter + it’s seems like a great space to work at.
