Most college students like us love brunch;, let’s be honest, because I do too! Brunch to me is such a good time to hang out with your friends and enjoy your day, especially on the weekend. I am often not hungry in the morning because I usually prepare lame things in the morning on my rush to school, so I don’t have enough time to get a nice breakfast. Brunch is great timing for me to have both breakfast and lunch together, plus you don’t have to wait in line during the lunchtime rush.
Let me show you some of the best/favorite brunch spots in Seattle if you want to try some new tasty places! Typically some of these spots are very busy (especially on the weekend), so try to go early or reserve a table/call ahead of time to avoid waiting.Check out their websites for more info!

Another spot near Pike Market! They have excellent French cuisine, a small quiet place with amazing tasting food, and an extremely high level of care taken and exhibited by the staff.

Wild Mountain Cafe is an excellent location in Ballard. It is in a beautifully renovated old house, where each room has been repurposed for the restaurant. The food and service here are always great.

Voula’s Offshore Cafe is an old-school diner with an extensive breakfast menu. No-frills,fast service, and a community vibe! Great place for brunch on the southwest edge of U-District. They’re only open until mid-afternoon and serve a great variety of dishes, including lunch items. But still, it is open during brunch hours and a real deal! Guy Fieri visited them and even created a menu from his choices. They also have a walk-up window outside for ordering on the go and covered outdoor seating.
Recommend: Smokey the Salmon, Smoked Pork Benedict, Piñata Benedict, Greek Hobo, Any Omelettes
