“Brunch, the socially acceptable excuse for day drinking.” So reads a quote scrawled across a table in Breakfast Republic, a cheeky North Park spot dedicated to that beloved weekend meal. Indulgent morning classics stock the menu, with sweet options like Oreo pancakes and s’mores french toast, as well as chicken-wing breakfast bowls and veggie tostadas. It upholds the promise of that table too, with 20 craft beers on tap, fresh-squeezed OJ served with bubbly, and something called the Jurassic Pork Bloody Mary, which gets doctored with bacon. The restaurant’s decor is equally saucy. In a nod to the rooster in the logo, the words “run cock run” span a living wall of greenery, and kitchen whisks have been repurposed into ceiling fans. The bathroom mirrors were custom-designed to look like oversize sunglasses, with the phrase “you look fine” reassuring diners doing a once-over—a good start to the day, indeed.
