New Hampshire Brunch Guide

• The Telegraph Sunday Brunch Guide -- a list of paid advertisers in and around Nashua
• Hippo Press cafe listing
• 10Best Breakfast/Brunch Restaurants
• Local coffee shops push taste with cups of joe, other fancy drinks

And then there's . . .
Ratings are on a scale of 1 to 5, 5 being best.
(italicized establishments no longer serve brunch; non-bolded no longer exist...)

Establishments with "mandatory gratuity" policies will be penalized in their scores, and not revisited while the policy is extant. Not by NH Mensa's "Second Sunday Brunch," and certainly not by your humble chronicler.
