It's Sunday morning — sunshine streaming in through your windows, birds chirping in the trees outside. It could be the opening scene of some shitty rom-com, if it weren't for your raging hangover, and the mountain of homework you have to do (or put off until later, if you're anything like me). The only thing that will simultaneously relieve your hangover and assist you in procrastinating your school work is a delicious brunch. Luckily, in Houston, there's no shortage of yummy brunch spots, so grab your friends and try some of these fantastic spots!
1. Benji's
Right in the heart of Rice Village, Benji's has all you could want from a brunch menu. Try the the brioche French toast with cranberry jam and cane syrup. A short morning walk to the village and a few mimosas will definitely cure your hangover!
2. The Honeymoon
Strong artisan coffee, scrumptious brunch options and a long list of brunch cocktails, the Honeymoon is sure to hit the spot on a Sunday morning. Anything off the menu will be delicious!
3. Tiny's No. 5
Tiny's No. 5 is nestled in West University, and has the same feel as its older brother, Tiny Boxwoods. It has the feel of a country club, so dress accordingly and enjoy the classiness it brings to your life. The chocolate chip cookies here are baked fresh and are probably the best in Houston, so don't miss out!
4. Tout Suite
It may look like your average coffee house. But it's the only coffeehouse with hot skillet breakfasts, tortillas made in-house, and the sweetest of brunch-time desserts. Get a macaron or a pastry to go, you won't regret it!
5. Lowbrow
Pros: great food, $2 mimosas, and a great patio for better weather days
Cons: nothing
Get out there and try it for yourself this weekend.
6. Backstreet Cafe
The coziest, cutest little brunch spot in Houston, Backstreet Cafe is the perfect place to discuss last night's drama with your friends! Make sure to try the orange chocolate brioche buns!
