Liquid Brunch is a Sunday brunch at The Toolbox Bar, the neighborhood bar on 2nd Avenue on the Upper East Side. From 1 to 5 PM, mimosas and screwdrivers are $5 at the bar, and happy hour keeps going until 9 PM, so the afternoon can slide right into the evening. It's a sip-and-catch-up kind of Sunday: grab your crew, pull up a stool and take your time.

About the venue
The Toolbox is a neighbourhood gay bar on Second Avenue near East 90th Street, one of the few gay bars on the Upper East Side. It is a small, unpretentious place with a regular local crowd, cheap happy-hour drinks and occasional entertainment nights, rated 4.5 from about 185 reviews…
“We went here for karaoke night and although there wasn’t a huge crowd in that night, the bar seemed way nicer and fun compared to the others I’ve been to in a few other cities. Matzah Belle-Soup was friendly and hilarious which made the experience amazing. Without her it probably would’ve just been like a regular bar with gay people having drinks.” — Milan Kumar, Google
“I have been coming to try is place for 10 years. Amazing cocktail- friendly staff. The bartender David , kudos, amazing drinks thank you” — Sunggeun Lee, Google
