Bread Winners Cafe & Bakery

You need to roll out of bed early on Saturday or Sunday if you want to beat the ardent locals to a table at this incredibly popular brunch bastion. But its weekday breakfast (served until 4 p.m.) rarely comes with a wait and the menu is just as indulgent. So what's the attraction? A relaxed coziness, a friendly staff and a complimentary basket of freshly baked breads that's delivered to your table as soon as you take a seat. Not that you'll have much room for extra treats as the breakfast dishes, which include pancakes, chicken & waffles, eggs Benedicts and a banana bread French toast (thick slices of seared banana bread topped with homemade whipped cream and sliced bananas) are substantial enough on their own. And if all that is too much for your arteries to take on, try one of the lighter options such as steel cut oatmeal or homemade granola with fresh fruit and yogurt.
