The Fireplace in Brookline
The Fireplace
in Brookline is a very inviting place. It definitely calls to you as
you walk or drive by. I went to the fireplace for brunch today with my
family and I didn't have the experience I thought I was going to have.
I noticed right away that the staff seemed extremely busy. Maybe they
were understaffed that day or busier than normal, I don't know?
It took
some time for us to be seated and when we were it took some time for us
to get drinks. I ordered some coffee and when it came I then had to
wait for when I saw the waiter again to ask for creamer. Once I got the
creamer, I realized I didn't have a spoon. So, I used a fork.
I had the sun in my eyes the whole time I was there. It was very
uncomfortable. I would consider only going there for dinner based on
this one fact alone. I ordered a $10 Fireplace Burger. It was okay.
There wasn't anything amazing about it. I was done with my coffee half
way through my meal and noticed that refills were something that the
staff wasn't very good at offering. I finally got a second cup of
coffee after a wait but when I was done with that one, I decided not to
bother asking for a third.
I was disappointed to say the least. I was left wishing I had gone to Moogy's or Zaftigs.
