Brunch at Uncle Rocco means the breakfast burrito can share a table with a burger. The menu at 112 Willow Ave has sweet breakfast dishes, savory plates and lunch choices, which makes it a useful place to start when your group cannot agree on what time of day it is.

For a first visit, open the Hoboken brunch menu and choose around what you actually want to eat. The Lemon Olive Oil Pancake and the Big J Burger are very different orders. You do not have to turn the whole table into a breakfast order just because one person wants pancakes.

What is on the sweet side of the menu?

The Lemon Olive Oil Pancake comes with berry compote and whipped cream. It is a specific dish on the Uncle Rocco menu, so ask for it by name when you are comparing the breakfast choices. The full menu is the place to check the current selection before your visit.

If someone in the group wants to split a dish, discuss it while ordering. A photo can help you choose what looks appealing, but it cannot tell you how hungry everyone will be. Build the order around the people at the table rather than treating an online list as a fixed meal plan.

What if you want a savory breakfast?

The Breakfast Burrito combines avocado, eggs, tater tots and cheddar cheese. Avocado Toast takes another direction, with whipped ricotta and roasted cherry tomatoes alongside the avocado. Those ingredient lists are worth reading: a dish name on its own does not tell you everything on the plate.

Ask the kitchen about a requested change before relying on it. A preference is straightforward to describe; an allergy needs a direct conversation about preparation as well as ingredients. The dietary information page gives you a starting point, and the restaurant can answer questions about a particular order.

Can you order a burger with the brunch crowd?

Yes, the restaurant presents brunch alongside its lunch and dinner menu. The Big J Burger is one option. The Rocco Burger has a different combination: smoked Gouda, special sauce, pickles, caramelized onions and thick-cut bacon. Check the current menu for availability when you order.

For someone who has been to Uncle Rocco before, this may be the more useful comparison than choosing “breakfast” or “lunch.” One person can come back for a familiar dish while someone else tries the pancake. Read the individual descriptions rather than assuming the two burgers have the same toppings.

How should you plan a group visit?

Choose a day and an approximate headcount before looking for a table. Uncle Rocco links to reservations from its visit page. Use the restaurant’s current booking link for available times. A booking for one table should not be treated as confirmation that a much larger party can be added on arrival.

For a group with a particular seating request, call (201) 238-2484. Mention the request while making arrangements. The restaurant has a back patio, but seeing it in a photo does not reserve it for your group or establish whether it is available on your date.

Brunch runs to 4 PM Friday through Sunday and to the 1 PM close Monday through Thursday. Check the restaurant’s current hours before travelling, particularly if you are planning a late arrival.

What should a first-time visitor know about the address?

Uncle Rocco is at 112 Willow Ave, Hoboken, NJ 07030. It is the restaurant formerly known as Antique at 112. Use the current name and address when sharing the plan with friends, particularly if someone remembers the previous name.

The visit page has directions and contact information. Check your own route for the day of the visit; this guide does not promise a parking space or a travel time. If someone is arriving separately, send the restaurant address along with the reservation time.
