They say breakfast is the most important meal of the day, but the usual eggs, toast, oatmeal, and cereal can get a bit old. Sleeping in and enjoying a mimosa or two and a delicious brunch spread, however, is something we’ll never get tired of. Brunch combines breakfast foods with lunch favorites for an early afternoon delight. These great spots throughout Texas offer everything from Short Rib Benedict to Nutella & Banana waffles, and are all worth checking out.

  1. Oddfellows (Dallas)

TripAdvisor/John H.

TripAdvisor/jmshilling Located in the Bishop Arts District, Oddfellows has that stereotypical quirky, hipster vibe associated with brunch restaurants. Smoked salmon benedict, short rib hash, and the pancake of the day are just a few of the many delicious choices. And you can’t leave without a cup of coffee - they have it down to a science. 316 W 7th St, Dallas, TX 75208

  1. Bellagreen (Houston)

Facebook/eatbellagreen

Facebook/eatbellagreen Formerly Ruggles Green, this refreshing eatery in Houston’s City Centre is perfect for anyone looking to lighten up their diet in 2018. The lemon poppy seed pancakes are gluten-free (but so yummy you’d never know the difference!), and the breakfast pizzas are killer as well. 801 Town & Country Blvd Houston, TX 77024

  1. Hubbell & Hudson Kitchen (The Woodlands)

Facebook/hubbellhudsonkitchen There are three separate locations in The Woodlands, but brunch is only served at the Kitchen location. The options are unique and endless - Corned beef hash, lobster stuffed avocado benedict, Nutella & banana pancake, chicken & waffles with bacon jam…the list goes on. 4526 Research Forest Drive, The Woodlands, Texas 77381

  1. Little Red Wasp (Fort Worth)

TripAdvisor/portchygal

Facebook/littleredwaspfw Everyone who’s anyone in Fort Worth knows about Little Red Wasp and their scrumptious brunch menu - namely, the Short Rib Benedict served on a cheddar biscuit. It doesn’t get much better than that, y’all. 808 Main Street, Fort Worth, Texas 76102

  1. Las Canarias (San Antonio)

TripAdvisor/waterandmore

TripAdvisor/KC_in_NY Complete with mimosas and champagne, this brunch buffet inside the Omni Hotel is an experience you’ll never forget. Enjoy Mexican favorites like huevos rancheros and chilaquiles made by some of the best chefs in the state. 112 College Street, San Antonio, Texas 78205

  1. Brewed (Fort Worth)

Facebook/brewedfw

Facebook/brewedfw Brewed is the premier coffee shop of Fort Worth as well as a hot weekend brunch spot. Make sure you get there early, though, because the line is notorious for being insanely long. Try the waffle with Nutella, caramelized bananas, bacon, and cream cheese, or their honey butter chicken biscuit with local provolone cheese and applewood-smoked bacon. My mouth is watering just typing that. 801 W Magnolia Ave, Fort Worth, TX 76104

  1. The Guenther House (San Antonio)

TripAdvisor/DinMcGin

TripAdvisor/RockOuttaTexas This historic restaurant has been serving up hearty Southern breakfasts since the 1920s. The menu is extensive, but the pancakes and waffles definitely steal the show - so much so that they sell the batter in-house! So you can have your cake and eat it too (literally). 205 E Guenther St, San Antonio, TX 78204

  1. The Breakfast Klub (Houston)

TripAdvisor/JoyceInDC

TripAdvisor/MontyNZ Fried chicken for breakfast? Count me in! The Breakfast Klub in Houston serves up the best you’ve ever tasted - and never without a smile. 3711 Travis at Alabama, Houston, TX 77002

  1. Atomic Omelette (Corpus Christi)

Facebook/atomicomelette

Facebook/atomicomelette There’s no better way to start your morning than with a plate of eggs, but sometimes they can get a bit boring. Not here - these omelettes are sure to blow up your taste buds. 6313 Wooldridge #10, Corpus Christi, Texas 78414
