Brunch is an important Sunday ritual, so why not plan ahead? Make plans for this Sunday to brunch somewhere new, and enjoy everything brunch has to offer.
DiPrato’s
Every Saturday and Sunday, DiPrato’s serves up a pretty incredible brunch. While their regular lunch menu is sometimes lacking, their brunch menu definitely makes up for what the regular menu doesn’t deliver. The crowd-pleaser at DiPrato’s is the irresistible cheesy potatoes. Pro tip: If a dish comes with one side of cheesy potatoes and another side of fruit or a something else, substitute the other side for another serving of potatoes. With other winning dishes on the menu, like Eggs Charleston (Eggs Benedict with crab cakes instead of Canadian bacon), the Breakfast Panini, omelettes and delectable peaches and cream pancakes, DiPrato’s has something for every customer that walks through the door.
Le Peep
The menu at Le Peep might seem intimidating at first, because they offer virtually every dish in the brunch world, but that just means you can go back for more. With menu sections that range from the Mexican dishes in “South of the Border” to the pancakes and French toast in the “Hot Off the Griddle” section, the customer is never short of options at Le Peep. The friendly atmosphere and wait staff make the experience all the more enjoyable, and at the end of the night, the bill won’t break the bank.
Crepes & Croissants
Despite recently coming to the Columbia brunch scene, Crepes & Croissants does not lack in quality. With twelve different entrée crepes, including a create-your-own option, seventeen dessert crepes, and other plates of omelettes and croissant sandwiches, the restaurant lives up to its name. Give the two-year-old establishment a try and see what all the fuss is about.
The Gourmet Shop
While surely a fixed spot on most people’s brunch list, The Gourmet Shop always delivers when it comes to the specialty cheeses, pasta salads, Belgian waffles and mimosa kits we all crave on Sunday mornings. The mimosa kits are a major selling point for brunch at The Gourmet Shop’s, they charge just $17.96 for an entire bottle of champagne and a karaff of OJ. The Gourmet Shop also offers an incredible selections of cheeses, breakfast items and pasta salads that will have customers coming back for the rest of their college — and adult — careers.
