Most of these places also serve breakfast and dinner. All locally owned. Most (if not all) of our local restaurants have vegetarian, vegan and gluten free options on their menu.

AXIS Lounge & Mexican Kitchen

Great Thai restaurant. The red curry and coconut soup are my favorite dishes. In the summer months the restaurant is surrounded by a garden where they grow their own herbs and vegetables.

My favorite brunch spots
Most of the places mentioned are within reasonable walking distance with the exception of The Farmer’s Table and Nomad’s South Side, which are a little further away. People take brunch seriously around here, so be prepared for a possible wait!
This is a great place for brunch or lunch in a really neat environment. The building used to be an old train depot and it still has the original floors and some of the old charm. There’s also local art throughout.

This is the closest bar to the house, only 3-4 blocks away. They have a full bar, good selection of local beer, and an excellent Cajun food truck out front (I’m not sure whether or not the food truck stays open year round). This is also the closest access point to the Razorback Regional Greenway Trail.
