Labor Day weekend is around the corner. That means a much-needed day off. Why not leave the cooking till Tuesday and enjoy some delicious bites and satisfying sips on your long weekend? Root and Branch is ready to help you kick back and relax with Labor Day meal and drink ideas you can’t resist. 

How Does Brunch Sound?

Labor Day Brunch? Sign us up. Keep it simple but delicious with a toasted English muffin sandwich, filled with bacon, egg, and cheese. Or treat yourself: try our hash, made with a hearty blend of seasoned sausage, diced potatoes, and onions, and topped with two scrambled eggs. Or see what the chef suggests for an omelet du jour. 

Cocktails and Spirits for Your Day (or Night) Off

Nothing says long weekend like a hand-crafted cocktail, made just for you. Our bar is stocked for traditional cocktails, or you can try our in-house twist on the classics. Try one of our Berry Smash Mules for something light on the palate, a smoked Boulevardier for something complex, or a hibiscus French 75, if you love bubbles.

When the wine and spirits are top-quality, they can stand alone, too. Why not build your own Bourbon flight, or sip something from our extensive wine list? If you want to try something new, our bartenders can mix up something you’re sure to love, including mocktail alternatives if you prefer keeping your fun alcohol-free.

Labor Day Dinner Ideas: Hot off the Grill

Labor Day is one of the most popular days of the year for firing up the grill, and we’re ready at R&B. Here are some unbeatable grill-lovers’ dinner suggestions for your long-weekend feast:

  • Wagyu Sirloin (GF) 10-oz Wagyu sirloin, marinated and grilled to your preference, topped with house-made herb and garlic butter. Is your mouth watering yet?
  • Chicken Wings Dinner: 10 chicken wings, grilled to a crispy char, served with hand-cut fries and your choice of house-made Buffalo, Korean BBQ, or traditional dry rub.
  • Grilled Caesar Salad: For a bite full of crunch, texture, and flavor, try our Grilled Caesar. Made with char-grilled romaine topped with Caesar dressing, Parmesan crisp, and croutons, we finish it with crispy pancetta for just a touch of richness. 

Save Room for Dessert

Is it really a day off if you don’t treat yourself? The Root and Branch Summer menu has plenty of delicious options.

Our fried bread pudding is called Next Level for a reason.
