Brunch is the ultimate Sunday meal, usually enjoyed until 3 pm, which means consumers start thinking about dinner around 8 pm.

Every Sunday, after wrapping up chores and preparing for meetings on Monday, my husband and I avoid cooking and cleaning the kitchen at all cost. We usually find ourselves at a race for time trying to make it to one of the few restaurants open “late” on Sunday. Below, we have compiled a list of Lakeland’s best restaurants open “late” on Sunday.
