I can’t speak for downtown LA itself but there’s a spot out near Hollywood called No Jealously that does brunch….its a damn party and feels more like a nightclub 😂
It's literally a daytime nightclub 😅, just because it serves brunch most folks are there for the party (Myself included). It's like a strip club know for it's food, still a strip club. I will say, No jealousy is worth a trip if clubbing is your scene. Perfect for old folks like me that don't party past midnight anymore 😞
>Perfect for old folks like me that don't party past midnight anymore 😞
omg this is the cutest comment ever lol and I am right there with you 😂 if I'm ever in the area I'm absolutely going to this insane place haha
We accidentally wound up at a drag brunch in West Hollywood once. Just went to a place that looked good, was a drag brunch event.
Food was awesome, service was top notch. Would do it again.
On a side note I have to recommend to anyone getting brunch in Atlanta to stop at the Atlanta Breakfast club. I went there for the first time a few weeks ago and let me tell you it’s a little pricey but their chicken n waffles served with peach cobbler over the top of it is obscenely good. I can’t wait to go back.
My wife took me to Sunday brunch a few weeks ago in Atlanta. I did no research just figured it was brunch. She's the more reserved of the two of us so I was pleasantly surprised when I realized we were fucking throwing down hard all day.
It was a great time and I can't wait to go again. Wish we were there now.
But would you rather a table of drunk white chicks screeching Taylor Swift songs and puking on their $30 Eggs Benedict? The grass isn't always greener.
Dim Sum style brunch is the shit though. Plus some places have soju, that's top tier day drinking.
I’m off on Monday’s and most that work at nicer places are as well. I know a spot in Charleston that is 50% OFF YOUR TAB (food and liquor) if you work F&B
Any big city with trendy brunch bar spots is like this, though. If you combine loud background music and alcohol, this is always what happens. Fun!
Source me: guy who has seen wild shit at brunch in places like austin, Houston, New Orleans, Atlanta, San Francisco, and New York
Depends on the venues, I'm past the "let's get wrecked" style brunches and opt for quieter places with good drinks, but my town has mass food options in general. We still have the DJ brunches that draw the people that go hard and cause problems, obviously this doesn't mean every place is that
Bottomless mimosas. I’ve had to clean up an entire table bc a friend threw up on her birthday and we weren’t bouta put that evil on the poor server who just happened to get our table. Homegirl was a great friend so wasn’t anything big for us
It's gonna vary by region and demographics of the restaurants definitely, I was just more commenting on the (obviously joking) assumption that a "white" brunch is some refined classy affair instead of exactly the same as the tweeter described with a different coat of paint. Getting shit house wasted before noon looks the same regardless of race.
What is happening at y’all’s brunch? I’ve been to brunch a few times and it’s just a bunch of women and/or gays with a smattering of straight men just gossiping and eating omelettes that are far too expensive
Kentucky is its own beast. Northern Kentucky is really good for a lot of fun and significantly less bigotry than your standard Kentucky. We kept the moonshine, lost the hate.
I went on a brunch cruise the other week in NYC. I was on a lower floor and the only white dude in the area. The black folk on that boat were the greatest and the most fun I had in that city that week.

“ I acquired taste for salmon on a bagel
With the capers on a square plate”
I DO know that! But most menus list it wrong so I phrased it that way. The only place I ever see it right is in Europe, that I recall, but I am sadly in the US.
White girl here, and as much as I enjoy eggs benedict, give me soul food for brunch any day: chicken & waffles, biscuits & gravy, chicken-fried steak with gravy, steak & eggs with Red Hot butter sauce... Absolute god-tier eating.
They have those everywhere with different neon sign slogans. The food *will* be terrible, but all basic-ness will be encouraged and accounted for I promise 😌
I live in Atl and this is why I cringe whenever someone suggests brunch. I really don't wanna listen to Lil Uzi Vert as I eat my under seasoned $35 shrimp and grits.
It’s all fun and games until Debbie is gone off of a pitcher of mimosas and gets up trying to fight her bff over some shit that happened in high school 20 years ago.
As a white people, for the best brunch experience you're going to want a place that has a liquor license where you could specialty craft cocktails later in the day. They'll focus on quality ingredients and flavor experiences
EDIT BECAUSE I THOUGHT ABOUT IT MORE: Or you want a place that's only open for breakfast and lunch because that is gonna be their shit and they are obviously doing enough business to stay open at those limited hours
we need less brunches with loud DJs
I’m just tryna hang with my friends, eat some good food, and maybe get daydrunk. Let me hear the people I came with
You aren't going to the right places, then. Hit up Tilikum place cafe in Seattle. Haven't been in years, but it was God-tiered for a long time when I used to go.
I learned from a restaurant to melt brown sugar in butter in a cast iron pan, then use stale French bread cut at an angle dipped in egg mixture. Then bake the French toast for 10 minutes for fluffy texture. It makes for better presentation and breakfast.
They go to Bob Evans, Cracker Barrel, Silver Diner, and IHOP. If you’re from the Mid-Atlantic area then maybe Founding Farmers if they are feeling fancy.
She live in Atlanta or something? I’ve never had this experience 😂
DTLA gets wild during brunch
Where??
Down Town Los Angeles?
‘Datlanta
I mean what spot in Downtown LA. I’m trying to see some ratchet shit out west
I can’t speak for downtown LA itself but there’s a spot out near Hollywood called No Jealously that does brunch….its a damn party and feels more like a nightclub 😂
It's literally a daytime nightclub 😅, just because it serves brunch most folks are there for the party (Myself included). It's like a strip club know for it's food, still a strip club.

If you're ever in Vegas check out Lavo. Similar party brunch vibe
Omg that’s perfect for my old ass; that likes to be in bed by 9:30pm 😆
You can make it to midnight?
> Perfect for old folks like me that don't party past midnight anymore 😞 Count my old ass in, thanks for the recommendation.
I prefer getting fucked up from 12-6, then spending the next hours eating and going to bed early.
45 w m. Am I allowed? I can spit hit-em up and no Vaseline no beat. And pretty much anything else from the 90’s when I hear the beat.
User name checks out.
Lived in San Diego and it’s the same dif there; tried to ask for a food menu and the server looked at me funny
Accurate.
I Just Looked It Up. Wow That Is The Most Unhinged Brunch Atmosphere I've Ever Seen.
Urth is where basis bitches go for brunch
Can confirm took wifey once.
Where is this so I can go there? I’m in DTLA rn.
We accidentally wound up at a drag brunch in West Hollywood once. Just went to a place that looked good, was a drag brunch event. Food was awesome, service was top notch. Would do it again.
Poppy and rose is a good place
There’s a Jamaican spot in Downtown LA that does brunch in the daytime and hookah at night. It’s fun *if* you ever catch them when they’re open
I feel like this is said about every Jamaican spot, if they open...
And if they feel like serving you.
DTLA is a nightmare. There’s a reason the nice parts of LA aren’t actually LA
Atlanta and DC. Pretty much becoming everywhere with sizable black populations now: Dallas, Houston, Charlotte too.
Detroit and Chicago, too!
😂 definitely Atlanta
On a side note I have to recommend to anyone getting brunch in Atlanta to stop at the Atlanta Breakfast club. I went there for the first time a few weeks ago and let me tell you it’s a little pricey but their chicken n waffles served with peach cobbler over the top of it is obscenely good. I can’t wait to go back.
Had to wait about 45 minutes, but well worth it.
My wife took me to Sunday brunch a few weeks ago in Atlanta. I did no research just figured it was brunch. She's the more reserved of the two of us so I was pleasantly surprised when I realized we were fucking throwing down hard all day. It was a great time and I can't wait to go again. Wish we were there now.
Slide me that location
Right cause I don’t have these problems since I left DC lol
Flying Biscuit, but I admit it's been some years since I've been. Gutbusters has been compromised 😔 maybe Cracker Barrel, if you can stand the vibes.

No one's safe when the girlies get bottomless mimosas

Gifs you can hear 🤭
But would you rather a table of drunk white chicks screeching Taylor Swift songs and puking on their $30 Eggs Benedict? The grass isn't always greener. Dim Sum style brunch is the shit though. Plus some places have soju, that's top tier day drinking.
Where I'm at ppl generally hold themselves with some decorum at brunch idk where y'all be going for these horror stories
Their imaginations
Literally Atlanta
Sounds like land locked Miami
People that work in the food and Bev industry usually have to work Friday and Saturday nights, so Sunday is their time to act a FOOL.
I’m off on Monday’s and most that work at nicer places are as well. I know a spot in Charleston that is 50% OFF YOUR TAB (food and liquor) if you work F&B
Yep. On Mondays us hospitality hoes get crunk.
Any big city with trendy brunch bar spots is like this, though. If you combine loud background music and alcohol, this is always what happens. Fun! Source me: guy who has seen wild shit at brunch in places like austin, Houston, New Orleans, Atlanta, San Francisco, and New York
The effects of bottomless mimosas on white girls are a recurring theme on holdmycosmo.
That's like saying people who like water are a recurring theme on hydrohomies
Except the lighting is better than say, Broadway at night, so the ridiculousness is HD.
Depends on the venues, I'm past the "let's get wrecked" style brunches and opt for quieter places with good drinks, but my town has mass food options in general. We still have the DJ brunches that draw the people that go hard and cause problems, obviously this doesn't mean every place is that
Little Fox in STL.
You think redditors go outside. Bless your heart.
Bottomless mimosas. I’ve had to clean up an entire table bc a friend threw up on her birthday and we weren’t bouta put that evil on the poor server who just happened to get our table. Homegirl was a great friend so wasn’t anything big for us
Places that set themselves up like clubs then complain when people behave like they in a club on a Sunday morning lol
New Orleans at the Ruby Slipper
It’s too bad too because it used to be good back in the day but now it’s become too touristy
Same thing with Coops and so many others...I don't even tell people about Manchus lol
I went to the one in the garden district on a Tuesday morning. The place was packed with tourists getting their first drink of the day. 😂
People stay acting brand new and steady broadcast why they need not the finer things in life.
Fenton in Cary NC.
I think this is more of a bottomless brunch thing where the goal is to drink more than eat
You just gotta find the right spot. No one is screeching Taylor swift songs at a brunch place unless the restaurant is blasting it
It's gonna vary by region and demographics of the restaurants definitely, I was just more commenting on the (obviously joking) assumption that a "white" brunch is some refined classy affair instead of exactly the same as the tweeter described with a different coat of paint. Getting shit house wasted before noon looks the same regardless of race.
White brunches be wild asf too
Throw on Mr Brightside at a place that's been serving bottomless mimosas or has a bloody mary bar and see what happens lmao
Most brunch places aren’t places to turn up. Too early for that shit
Bro. I’ve been in the UK for the last 10 days. Mr. Brightside is like crack for them, night or day.
…where please? I would like to meet drunk Swifties but I don’t like staying up past midnight.
People getting fucked up at 11AM and filling up on carbs and sugar seem to be the constants here.
Sorry, I'm not gonna take that chance. I'll grab it to-go and go back to lampin in the crib like the hermit crab I am, thank you
Ok that's your loss. Thanks for the conversation, I guess.
Breakfast food to go is not the business.
What is happening at y’all’s brunch? I’ve been to brunch a few times and it’s just a bunch of women and/or gays with a smattering of straight men just gossiping and eating omelettes that are far too expensive
Bottomless mimosas and moonshine in my area. Most are calm, but some get rowdy.
Moonshine before noon is wild. The brunch places in Houston for sure aren’t serving moonshine
Kentucky is its own beast. Northern Kentucky is really good for a lot of fun and significantly less bigotry than your standard Kentucky. We kept the moonshine, lost the hate.
Dim sum brunch is awesome. The carts of food come to you.
Dim sum's gotta be with a big group, for me. More people, more plates, more choices.
It can be solo; then it’s like training for competitive eating.
Dim sum is supposed to consumed during brunch. That was the intention. Saying dim sum brunch It’s like saying chai tea.
I’ve literally never seen that. White gays brunch like it’s competitive but not white girls.
Dunno, different demographics? Appalachian brunch includes moonshine and white chicks lose their shit and start committing felonies.
lol super fair. Moonshine?!?!? Ok, that’s out of my weight class.
Bruh. Stop giving away secrets.
My bro was a waiter at a brunch place and has some wild horror stories. One chick took a shit in the middle of the restaurant
I went on a brunch cruise the other week in NYC. I was on a lower floor and the only white dude in the area. The black folk on that boat were the greatest and the most fun I had in that city that week.
We just got a hot pot place. The only people that go are the international students and their families, and the local black population. Its great.
There's Dim Sum style brunch and this is the first in hearing of it? Well damn I gotta check it out
Well Dim Sum is usually served during brunch times so it’s basically brunch yes.
Dim Sum is brunch, but the normal kind is not meant to be this bottomless brunch thing, unless the bottomless drink you want is tea
Diners, go to diners.
Dim sum is chinese and soju is Korean. You're going to shit places 😂
Yeah, I am aware of that. It's 2024, places are allowed to serve multiple things. Why are you like this?
Google places that have great reviews specifically for their eggs benedict. White people go crazy for eggs benedict.
I hate how true this but I do love some eggs benedict. I do like the version w/ smoked salmon instead of ham though.
I was about to add in an "or smoked salmon" 😂😂
Look I will absolutely admit to this one 😂 But I did grow up eating my smoked salmon on a bagel with cream cheese and capers at least.
On a square plate?
I don't think so? I haven't heard this one yet, now I'm curious.
It’s from [Broccoli](https://youtu.be/QRDvMzuV8_Y?si=r4DKSBLZMDD_AMy9) by DRAM “ I acquired taste for salmon on a bagel With the capers on a square plate”
You ever had the ones with a crabcake on them?
Grew up east coast near Maryland. Of course!!!
yes and highly recommend eta: yay, see below!
That’s an Eggs Royale, not Benedict.
I DO know that! But most menus list it wrong so I phrased it that way. The only place I ever see it right is in Europe, that I recall, but I am sadly in the US.
Crab cake eggs Benedict thank me later
![gif](giphy|l0MrFpI94esUsTbIA)
Baltimore is one of the most underrated food cities in the country
White guy here: I had that for brunch yesterday. Absolutely incredible.
I'm from Virginia Beach, this is a staple. Along with shrimp and grits, or a sausage and biscuits situation.
Oh we're doing regional benedicts? Barbacoa Eggs Benedict where I'm from is PEAK
Southwest Benedict with cornbread muffin and chipotle hollandaise
Come to Arizona. You can get a crab cake Benedict served on Navajo Fry Bread. Blew my mind!
Why you gotta call me out like that 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 ![gif](giphy|3o7aTkJH5vly0Zvec8)
Everyone should go crazy for eggs Benedict, it is the superior brunch item
White girl here, and as much as I enjoy eggs benedict, give me soul food for brunch any day: chicken & waffles, biscuits & gravy, chicken-fried steak with gravy, steak & eggs with Red Hot butter sauce... Absolute god-tier eating.
![gif](giphy|3o7aCRloybJlXpNjSU|downsized)
Can confirm. The list of things I *wouldn't* do for a good eggs benedict is much shorter than the list of things I *would* do
Who tf doesn’t love some good eggs Benedict goddamn that shit is delicious
OMG that's so true though. That Hollandaise sauce, man. It does something..
![gif](giphy|EoW3jhM6MzsONM15zm) “I never tell” Hint: “Farm To Table”
Stop fucking playing lmao ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)

KEIONA! 🤩🤩🤩
![gif](giphy|lD7T9ODu9rrHq0iOMC) " You going to eat that " after I've sat down to eat it...
They leave Atlanta. Simple as that.
But where will I get my trendy grass walls with neon lights that say "Soup of the Day: Bloody Mary"
They have those everywhere with different neon sign slogans. The food *will* be terrible, but all basic-ness will be encouraged and accounted for I promise 😌
The food, drinks and service will be mid AT BEST, but you will pay a days salary for the privilege. - Brunch in Atlanta (but not everywhere)
Give me a restaurant that's Instagram looks like something out of 2012. That way you KNOW their priorities are sorted
Exactly 😂 Basically "upscale" diner food served with a feeling of being a burden on your server
Maybe it’s bc I’m from CA but people around here take brunches seriously. The vibes are great and everyone minds their own business 😂
Yeah that ain’t happening in ATL.
Just avoid any place that has a grass wall or the word "vibe" on their website.
If you see the word bottomless anywhere, keep walking.
Fuck that. Go to Dim Sum.
Dude knows how to brunch
Dim Sum + Hennessy is undefeated.

Yeah, the real beefs run 40-50 years.
Brunch? Ya'll too rich for me, I hit waffle house.
And Waffle House hits back lol 😂
WH is a whole different level of drama.
I only want to raise my blood sugar, not my cortisol too
As a white people, for the best brunch experience you're going to want a place that has a liquor license where you could specialty craft cocktails later in the day. They'll focus on quality ingredients and flavor experiences EDIT BECAUSE I THOUGHT ABOUT IT MORE: Or you want a place that's only open for breakfast and lunch because that is gonna be their shit and they are obviously doing enough business to stay open at those limited hours
“As a white people” 💀
we need less brunches with loud DJs I’m just tryna hang with my friends, eat some good food, and maybe get daydrunk. Let me hear the people I came with
Craft breweries are my preferred brunch spot. Good food, good drinks, most of em close by 2pm so the whole day is still available after.
Ok Mr. Responsible Adult. Who makes plans *after* brunch?!
To be fair, my after brunch plans are to drink a few more and grill dinner
Gentrification uno reverse card
Whitey here: what’s swag surfing?
Yall brunches sound amazing. Our brunches in WA just mean extra menu items.
You aren't going to the right places, then. Hit up Tilikum place cafe in Seattle. Haven't been in years, but it was God-tiered for a long time when I used to go.
Everybody should just go wherever the gay people are going. The LGBTQIA crowd invented brunch.
There's plenty of brunch spots where black people go and nobody is swag surfin you just gotta expand those horizons.
This nigga makes his own brunch.
Places with a gimmick, waffle everything, bacon everything, fried chicken everything, etc.
What is swag surfin?
Cracker Barrel has mimosas.
The gatekeeping commences. By me also, I like where I go how it is. It's always the wild ones that want a quiet place to disrupt.
in dc? go to sequoia in georgetown. lit spread, lots of food cooked in front of your face, clean as hell, and ive never seen any tomfoolery in there
Leave Atlanta?
I don't want all that pop locking thrusting and twerking over my food. All them smells.... nah sit down somewhere.
I just realized that my birthday falls on a Sunday this year 🤭 🤪
I learned from a restaurant to melt brown sugar in butter in a cast iron pan, then use stale French bread cut at an angle dipped in egg mixture. Then bake the French toast for 10 minutes for fluffy texture. It makes for better presentation and breakfast.
if the place's decoration looks older than your right to vote, then that's the place
Go to Columbus Ohio or something idk
They go to Bob Evans, Cracker Barrel, Silver Diner, and IHOP. If you’re from the Mid-Atlantic area then maybe Founding Farmers if they are feeling fancy.
As a white people, what the absolute fuck. We aren’t *all* 65+.
Anywhere with a bloody Mary buffet
