damnlines hasn't pointed a lens at Breakfast by Salt's Cure (Prospect Heights) yet. The most-wanted lines get a camera first.
Breakfast by Salt's Cure is a scratch-made breakfast-and-brunch spot (an offshoot of the Salt's Cure name) with several NYC and LA locations; the Prospect Heights outpost on Vanderbilt Ave draws a weekend brunch crowd typical of the brand's other locations.
Reviewers describe a line forming on weekends (one noted a queue around 12:30pm) but say it moves fairly quickly at this location compared to Salt's Cure's smaller, more notoriously long-wait NYC spots like Carroll Gardens and West Village; groups of two reportedly get seated faster than larger parties. Best-time guidance from reviews: arrive right at the 8am opening or visit on a weekday to skip the weekend midday rush.
Patterns as reported by press and regulars — not measured by damnlines.
Reservations: No reservations - counter service. Per the venue's FAQ page, "since you order at our counter when you come in and then sit, reservations are impossible," and parties are seated complete only after ordering.
Walk-ins: It's walk-in only; lines can form, particularly at the West Village location on weekends, but per the venue's FAQ the line "tends to move pretty quickly" due to their counter-service style, and other locations are typically easier to walk into.
