Where to Get Brunch in Phoenix This Weekend

Being one of the biggest cities in the country, Phoenix is a popular spot to settle down or just visit for a few days, especially when the weather gets cold everywhere else. 

Whether you’re in town temporarily or permanently, you’re sure to want to have some fun in the sun in this city. And what better way to soak up some vitamin D than to spend some time eating, drinking, and enjoying company?

We think brunch is the best way to do all of these things. Best of all, brunch really is the best of both worlds. First of all, if you make weekend brunch plans, no one’s going to judge you for sleeping in. Most importantly, it’s an excuse to get a little drunk during the day – no questions asked. Not to mention all of the delicious foods like pancakes, avocado toast, breakfast burritos, brioche french toast, burgers, and more.

Whether you’re just looking for some delicious food, hoping to soak up some of the alcohol from last night, or drink a little more, these brunch spots are great for all three.
