At Sunken Well Tavern, the brunch menu reads like a dream. Highlights include the Picanha Steak served with cheesy potatoes and eggs your way, a hearty Country Fried Steak smothered in gravy, and even a seafood-packed Monisco Ramen. They also offer vegan-friendly options like the Chili Crisp Avocado Toast and plenty of creative sides.
Just a short walk away, The Alpine Chef is going big with brunch from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. They’re known for their giant Bloody Marys, brunch flights, and rotating specials like pork filet with asparagus ratatouille. It’s a great pick for anyone craving a hearty German twist on their Sunday plate.
Foode is also bringing their A-game with a fresh and locally sourced brunch served until 3 p.m. Favorites include the Everything Biscuit packed with cheesy eggs and bacon, Steak Tacos with tomato salsa, and Buttermilk Waffles with rosemary maple syrup. Their drink menu? Top-tier. Expect options like the Around the Way Girl espresso cocktail, house-made Bloody Marys, and sparkling Respect Your Elders elderberry mimosas.
