Brigettes Espresso Bar Review

Half the population of Merivale seems to enjoy weekend brunch at Brigittes, so make sure you book ahead. The homey interior looks out onto the street and opens up to a sheltered courtyard. You’ll find all the usual breakfast options, including eggs Benedict and eggs Florentine, plus lunch and dinner choices such as honey-glazed chicken on salad greens served with lime-ginger soy dressing. The service can be half-hearted but the atmosphere is always good.

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
