Brunch with the Best!

The most important and delicious meal of the day, brunch! I have always had a love for breakfast foods, with my favorites being bacon, omelets, and French toast. Oxford offers some of the most mouthwatering brunch spots, perfect for families or after a long Saturday night on the square with your friends. All of these restaurants will be open for Easter, so make your reservations now. Here is a guide to some of my personal favorite brunch places in Oxford. Don’t get too hungry!

First Watch

The variety of items First Watch offers is definitely a reason for the hour long waits on Sunday mornings. They have healthier options like a power wrap and avocado toast, or if you want something more greasy, they have a delicious egg sandwich to cure your Sunday scaries! This would be the perfect spot to bring your family and is worth the wait. They offer Sunday brunch from 7 a.m. to 2:30 p.m.

Lost Dog Coffee

If you are looking for a cute cafe-styled brunch spot, this is the place! They have some of the best, fresh brewed coffee in town and offer a plethora of yummy baked goods like bagels and scones. They are located in Taylor, MS and have a cozy inside for a relaxing Sunday afternoon. They are open from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. on Sundays!

Big Bad Breakfast

I have spent countless Sunday mornings at BBB. My go-to meal would have to be their biscuits and gravy or a fluffy omelet. They are known for their tasty egg skillets and have some of the best freshly-squeezed orange juice to quench your thirst! They typically have a wait, but you can always order online and take your brunch to-go. Their brunch is from 8 a.m. to 2 p.m.

Saint Leo

Well-known for their pizza and bubbly prosecco pops, but some of you may not have known that they have a delicious menu for Sunday Brunch! They have dutch babies, one of my all-time favorite breakfast dishes and sweet waffles topped with chocolate chips. I recommend pairing your dish with a bloody mary, extra spicy. Their brunch begins at 10:30 a.m. and ends at 3 p.m. You can make reservations through their website.

And there you have it, some of my go-to brunch spots in Oxford! I recommend trying to get a reservation at these locations for Easter or getting on the waitlist early.
