Mediterranean Breakfast Traditions That Will Transform Your Mornings

In the Mediterranean, breakfast isn't something you grab on the way out the door. It's a reason to sit down — and it's exactly the pace we've built our weekend breakfast menu around.

A Weekend Ritual

We serve breakfast Saturday and Sunday from 9:00 AM to 1:00 PM, and it's built to be unhurried on purpose. Order a coffee first, let the table fill up, and let the rest of the morning follow from there. Across the Mediterranean, that's more or less how breakfast has always worked — fresh bread, olives, cheese, and eggs, eaten slowly enough that the meal becomes the plan for the morning rather than a delay to it.

Eggs, Reimagined

Our omelets take the classic Mediterranean breakfast plate and build on it. The Merguez Omelet ($19) is three eggs with our own spicy beef sausage, tomatoes, caramelized onions, and creme fraiche. The Chicken Pesto Omelet ($19) layers grilled marinated chicken with pesto, tomatoes, caramelized onions, and cheese, and the Tex Mex Omelet ($19) brings grilled marinated steak, tomatoes, onions, avocado, and pepper jack into the mix. If you'd rather keep it simple, Two Eggs & Pancakes ($12) and Two Eggs & Beef Bacon ($15) — served with homemade potatoes — cover the classics.

Sweet Starts

For a lighter morning, our Buttermilk Pancakes ($12) come two to a plate, and Avocado Toast ($14) keeps things clean with avocado, tomatoes, olive oil, and sumac. If you're leaning sweet, our Sweet Crepes menu runs deep — Nutella Crepe, Nutella & Banana, Nutella & Strawberries, and Nutella & Pistachio all make a good excuse to order dessert before noon.

Coffee and Chai on the Side

No Mediterranean breakfast is complete without something hot on the table. Whether that's a Turkish Coffee ($5), a traditional Chai in a Clay Pot (12 oz, $5), or a simple Latte ($5), the café side of our menu is open right alongside breakfast, so there's no reason to choose one or the other. If two eggs and a couple pancakes are too much for the table to agree on, the Two Eggs, Pancakes, Sausage & Bacon ($19) plate tends to settle most disagreements before the coffee's even done.

The most important ingredient in a Mediterranean breakfast is time — time to sit, and to share the table.

Come Hungry

We're only serving breakfast on weekends for now, so plan around it — walk-ins are welcome, but for larger groups we'd suggest calling ahead. See the full breakfast menu, or if the weekend doesn't work for your schedule, our café and North African plates are on offer every day.
