Is brunch brunch without booze? Black Walnut Cafe is home to some of the best Benedicts and boozy milkshakes. We know what you’re thinking – boozy milkshakes don’t necessarily go with eggs and pancakes but once you get a sip of their infused ice cream, you might reconsider! If you’re going for a classic mimosa, head to First Watch where they’re serving up not only mimosas, but their Million Dollar Bloody Mary and a Pomegranate Sunrise. Or, go big or go home at Kelly’s at The Village. As if the breakfast items with warm homemade biscuits and juicy brisket isn’t enough, you have to order the mimosa tower. Yes, you heard right. They have a mimosa TOWER for groups of four or more. After a long weekend, “wine” down at your favorite wine bar – Cru Food and Wine Bar for their Sunday Brunch. Not many people know that Cru Food & Wine bar serves brunch on the weekend but when you try the decadent crab cake benedict or steak and eggs, you’ll realize what a treasure this local DFW favorite truly is!
