B runch isn’t just a meal — it’s a lifestyle, a weekend ritual and sometimes, an excuse to have pancakes and cocktails at the same time. In Plano, brunch options range from decadent French toast to savory Tex-Mex feasts, with plenty of coffee, mimosas and indulgent bites in between.
Whether it’s a leisurely morning with friends or a quick fuel-up before tackling the weekend, there’s a perfect plate waiting. Here’s where to find the best brunch spots in town — because breakfast may be the most important meal of the day, but brunch is the most fun.
First Watch
3131 Custer Road, Plano
No need to set an alarm — brunch at this Plano spot is worth waking up for. From classic bacon and eggs to creative seasonal dishes, the menu serves up fresh flavors with something for every craving. Sip on a fresh-squeezed juice or a cup of Project Sunrise Coffee while debating whether to go savory with the carne asada hash or sweet with raspberry ricotta french toast. And if you’re feeling fancy, a little million dollar bacon never hurts.
Whiskey Cake
3601 Dallas Pkwy, Plano
Don’t limit brunch to mimosa flights. Whiskey Cake doesn’t. Here, they’re great, sure, but so are the bourbon pours. Perfect for pairing with their signature chicken and waffles, the apple crisp french toast dripping in whiskey toffee sauce or a colossal cinnamon roll worthy of its name, the menu leans into indulgence. Sip on their chilled coffee-infused old-fashioned — aptly named the “cold fashioned,” or wash it all down with a mimosa flight.
Toulouse Cafe and Bar
7301 Windrose Ave. Suite C150, Plano
Bonjour! Some mornings call for a little French flair and this bistro delivers. Toulouse serves up French-influenced Belgian cuisine with a modern twist. From buttery croque madame to delicate omelette provençale, the menu blends classic French flavors with a modern twist. The setting is as charming as the cuisine, making it a prime spot for a leisurely weekend brunch. Pair it with a mimosa or a café au lait and suddenly, Plano feels a little more Parisian.
