Retro brunch at the Breakfast Club
If you don't have detention, you can enjoy a meal with your friends at this classic diner named after John Hughes's 1985 flick. Go ahead: Wear your scrunchies and Chuck Taylors. With the '80s soundtrack and menu items named after the movie characters, you'll find yourself in another time entirely. All together now: "Don't you forget about me . . ."
6 a.m.-2 p.m. Monday-Saturday; 7 a.m.-2 p.m. Sunday. 270 Western Ave., Brighton. 617-783-1212. www.thebreakfastclubboston.com
