Hamilton's is a great spot for brunch in Windsor Terrace section of Brooklyn. The location is on Fort Hamilton Parkway at its intersection with E 4th.The only negative is parking. Street parking is difficult to find for this popular spot. We had to park blocks away in the midst of winter at a time when my medical specialists had not yet found a specific reason for my breathing problems. It was a difficult walk for me on portable oxygen, which I've since learned doesn't work. The plan was that after brunch we would walk to a nearby park in the opposite direction of where my son's vehicle was parked. The park would be a treat for my Grandson in return for having to endure brunch out. :) That plan was nixed because of the falling temperature & my health issues.The long walk to Hamilton's was worth it. I knew the moment we stepped in that this would be an awesome spot. The L shaped restaurant features a popular bar area facing Fort Hamilton. Table seating is available in that section, a patio & an outdoor seating area. The patio & outdoor areas, facing the cross street, were both heated & enclosed in a temporary clear protective material that allowed the same outdoor views as one would have seen in warmer weather. Dogs are allowed in the outdoor seating, which is always a huge plus.The timing of our visit was still too close to the Covid catastrophe in NYC for me to feel safe in a crowded area. Our hostess completely understood and seated us at the back table in the patio area. I felt safe. The heaters made the table comfortable. So I was completely happy.The menu was awesome. There was something for everyone from burgers & sandwiches to vegan. Our Server was very attentive.I chose the Salmon & Codcake w/chipotle aiol and arugula salad. It was delicious, definitely 5 stars. My then Vegan, now Vegetarian son chose the Organic Kale Salad with Pumpkin seeds, dried cranberries, and maple vinaigrette. It too deserves 5 stars. My grandson chose from the Kid's Menu, which runs the gamut of choices including perennial kids favorites such as Macaroni & Cheese, Grilled Cheese & Hamburger. As usual the Fries were his favorite.The Brunch Menu, available until 4, was what we chose from. It includes a Breakfast section, which is great for the late risers or those who enjoy lingering hours over coffee (like me). There is a Lunch (Bar) Menu served 4 - 5 that features Small Plates & Sandwiches. Dinner begins at 5, featuring not just entrees but also sandwiches & burgers.Hamilton's is definitely a place where I'll return. Their menu choices are terrific & it's a happy place.
