Must-Try Dishes:
Corned beef hash, Eggs Benedict, Coffee cake starter
What makes it special: Brunch-first cooking with the kind of volume that builds real regulars.
8.4
An all-day bakery-cafe that locals treat like a neighborhood clubhouse: breakfast plates up front, then cakes, cookies, and cupcakes for the take-home win. It’s strongest when you pair one savory anchor with a slice or scone, so the meal feels like a full spread without over-ordering.
Must-Try Dishes:
Katie Cakes (signature slice), Brioche French toast, Hot chocolate

8.4
An Uptown all-day café where breakfast wins on range and comfort—especially if you’re ordering with vegan/vegetarian needs in mind. The room leans eclectic and casual, and the best meals come from a focused order: one sweet plate, one savory plate, and coffee, then stop.

Vegan French toast, Eggs Benedict, Vegan chocolate chip pancakes

8.0
A wine bar that earns its spot on a breakfast list by offering structured brunch packages that feel like a sit-down occasion. The move is to lean into the composed buffet/entrée format and let it be a slower, more social meal—more celebratory brunch than quick breakfast.
