I’ve also added the yelp ratings so you can have your pick in a glance.

Mama’s On Washington Square

Mama’s On Washington Square opened almost 60 years from now and is one of its first kind in an open display kitchen. I love this breakfast place as it gives me the access to see my food getting cooked in front of me. Their unique bread, meat, pastries are something amongst many options to try. The place by the corner of the street is something worth spending.

Le Marais Bakery

The love for French dishes and baked goods got me to Le Marais Bakery. Some great creative ideas spread around the space and great food makes this my new favorite. I tried some amazingly baked croissants and sausages.

Son & Garden

Talk about an instagrammable place? Son & Garden has nailed their restaurant not only with great food but making the entire place super picture worthy. The brunch menu is extravagant and they have amazing cockatails as well. Do not miss the two most important drinks here. The first is the ‘Cloud 9’ drink topped with Cotton Candy and the second one is the ‘Under the Sea’ drink. These two had my heart as they were so pretty and refreshing.

Zazie

For everyone who loves an open patio and a mouthful of brunch, Zazie is the best place to be. The thought of breathing in natural air, friends gathering, and great gossips over food makes me go weak on my knees.

Plow

If you are in-to simple no-fuss brunch and are planning for a family or friends’ outing, Plow can contribute to a timeless recipe cooked fresh for you. I just love the fact that they care about their customers. Their hospitality is heart-warming and makes you feel welcomed at their place.  I did dig into the Plow French toast and I must say that the freshness is unbeatable.

Kitchen Story

Having Asian roots, I love spices. My taste buds often call out loud for that which is the things I love about Kitchen Story. Kitchen Story is the perfect balance between American-style breakfast packed with some Asian Influence. It’s modern, and scrumptious. Try their customer’s choice ‘Millionaire’s Bacon and Bottomless Mimosa.’ Also, what makes them even fancier is their old-school architecture which is super instagrammable again.

The Front Porch

When it comes to some southern and Caribbean comfort food, the front porch is the best deal in San Francisco. I went there with my husband and we had an amazing time. We had their chicken waffle combo which simply melted my heart. The chicken was tender and juicy alongside the beautifully cooked waffle. I have always been a great fan of wooden setups so their simple classic southern wooden decor went perfectly with the theme. Oh and don’t forget to try their bourbon pecan pie and bloody Mary as well.

The Dorian

Looking for an edgy brunch place with the yummies frozen rose? Then Dorian is your pick. The Bohemian style and the classic blend of fine whiskeys and crafted martinis are the foundation of this place. And of course you have to try their ‘Frose’. It is the perfect drink for brunch or girls nightout. Pair it with some deviled eggs and truffle fries and you’ve got a winner.

Marlowe

When it comes to Best Brunch Places in San Francisco ‘Marlowe’ serves it right. I love some light-hearted brunching options so I tried a couple of things here. The French toast soldier and the grilled asparagus filled my tummy right. The Marlowe Burger with the idea of half salad and half fries is a must-try. The interior also delivers the great concept of a butcher shop. The white hexagonal floor tile, quilted stainless steel walls, and drawings of animals make the place super eye catchy.

Nopa

Nopa is a must try place. It’s an amazing organic wood fire cuisine place that is a little different of a concept. From country pork chop to pappardelle, everything is made from organic ingredients. This is a perfect healthy affair and one of the best brunch places in San Francisco.

Flores

If you are in a real party mood while brunching on some great food, Flores is one of the best brunch places in San Francisco serving delicious Mexican food paired with great drinks.. The chicken, pork, and fried fish tacos stole my heart. The Cadillac margaritas can fill in some joy while cracking great conversations with your friends.

Lastly, why wait for some friends to join when you got the best company, which is you. I sometimes grab my brunch all alone enjoying my self-company.
