The advent of fall not only means great pumpkin patches and corn mazes, but plenty of delicious fall-inspired food as well. From savory to sweet, and a few ingenious beverages as well, we found 9 great seasonal sweets to eat — and drink — right now.

1. Pumpkin Spice Waffles

While there are likely plenty of places that offer some version of pumpkin waffles, only The Ainsworth offers them with pumpkin butter, candied pecans, vanilla Anglaise, whipped cream, and sprinkled with pumpkin pie spice. Available at brunch.

2. Frascatelli With Pumpkin

The 404 Kitchen is currently offering a hearty Frascatelli pasta dish, a semolina dumpling, with pumpkin, pork ragout, smoked garlic, grana padano and sage.

3. Pumpkin Bread Pudding

Pork Belly Farmhouse, which we continue to rave about, has a seasonal Pumpkin Bread Pudding, with Ginger Liqueur Creme Anglaise and Ginger Snap Brittle.
