To our surprise, we were charged for the unrequested salad sent by the chef. The Frog and the Peach is a wonderful venue for New Brunswick, but be forewarned about the prices and the nickel and dime tactics employed there. I traveled over an hour to have brunch here and it did not disappoint-I am delighted with all aspects of my delicious meal. We were seated in the garden room, which is flooded with natural sunlight. We sat in a sunny window table and we were able to easily control the blinds to block out the sun as our meal progressed.

Our waiter promptly appeared, filled our water glasses, and asked if we wanted a beverage (there was NO push to purchase alcohol, which was nice). Hot, delicious, nicely strong coffee arrived quickly and our waiter then took our order, intelligently answering our questions and then, when one question momentarily stumped him, he advised us that it was only his 7th day there, so he quickly consulted with the cook and returned to our table with the answer.

My sister's biscuits with homemade sausage gravy was lovingly homemade, the gravy thick but not cloying, the biscuits light and the sausage tasty. I ordered chicken meatballs with greens (sautéed escarole), 3 good-sized meatballs that oozed cheese when cut, in a delicious marinara sauce.
