In Austin, Texas, brunching is a sport and I have been training for it my whole life. It seems like every day another brunch spot is popping up in Austin, but we definitely have our go-to’s when the weekend rolls around! I’ve compiled a SHORT list of our current favorites with a growing list of new places to try – remember, good brunchin’ is a marathon, not a sprint!
Your favorite brunch spot not on the list? Drop it below – I’d love to try!
Gabriela’s East Austin Mexican Cuisine
Gabriela’s Downtown is the by far the most colorful brunch spot you’ll find. Vibrant murals and tables with a cozy patio. Gabriela’s has drinks to die for – michelada popsicles? Yep! Frozen Marg served in a pineapple? They’ve got that too! Everything on the menu is made fresh, fresh fresh!
900 E 7th St.

(Staple) Kerbey Lane
Kerbey Lane is an Austin staple. If you haven’t been, you have to try if only because it has been around forever and you just have to cross that off your bucket list. Kerbey Lane has a classic diner vibe with everything from a classic breakfast to delicious tacos and pancakes for my friends with a sweet tooth.
