In Dallas, brunch is a contact sport that ends in clinking glasses and the finest preparation of eggs, pancakes, and pastries. This is why it’s essential to know exactly where to find French toast worth going to the mats for, crispy bacon worth waiting for, and the strongest mimosas one can find to block out the memory of how long it took to get a table.
This city is littered with excellent brunch options, but these options are worth putting on the bucket list.
Chido Tacos and Tequila
Sure there are loads of breakfast tacos available on the brunch menu here, but one can also order the avocado tostada, Nutella-filled churro donut holes, and breakfast nachos. For more indulgent takes on brunch classics, try the banana bacon pancakes or birria stacked enchiladas. During brunch, mimosas run a cool $4 each.

Halcyon
Every coffee shop should do brunch as well as Halcyon. Head here for the Elvis French toast with peanut butter, chocolate, bacon, and caramelized bananas; a crazy good vegan Benedict with tofu; or a breakfast burrito that will satisfy any hunger pains.

Knox Bistro
This Uptown French bistro does brunch better than most places. Order a house made sticky pecan bun for the table, and then consider the hanger steak and eggs. For something more savory, the baked egg and piperade (eggs in a sea of tomatoes and red peppers) is un grand succès.

Green Point Seafood and Oyster Bar
A seafood forward brunch can look like a luscious lobster roll, a plate of shrimp and grits, an order of fish tacos — and should certainly include a dozen oysters. Get all of that and more at Green Point, in one of the city’s most comforting and stylish bistros.

The Saint
This steakhouse on Gaston Ave. has added a jazz brunch to its Sunday offerings, along with a load of brunch dishes. Order steak and eggs and the blood orange mimosa made with blood orange IPA and prosecco. Also highly recommended is the three bacon plate to share, which features crispy bacon cuts of three different meats.

Mirador
If you’re ready to go completely out of the ordinary for brunch, Mirador’s modern tea service is the place to be. It features three courses (plus a scone starter), three tea pairings, and a glass of Champagne in addition to multiple pairings to punch it up. It’s gorgeous inside and great for groups of friends.

Jonathon’s Diner
Head to Jonathon’s in Oak Cliff or North Dallas for an indulgent brunch option with a diner vibe. The weekend brunch menu hits a lot of notes, including typical brunch items such as waffles, egg platters, and salads. It also has a few outliers, like its brunch kabobs and Danger Dogs (a hot dog like dish made with pancakes). Good for those who are down to make brunch a little freaky.
