Not really feeling the brand name stuff like Cracker Barrel or Denny's or IHOP right now. Looking for something different. Located in N. Bryan so distance is a factor. Would go to Hullabaloos but don't wanna drive 20 minutes either. So a decent sit down breakfast with coffee is what I want that is not a big box restaurant. Anything like that here that I am missing perhaps?

We need a breakfast and crepes place. If you've been to Chef N Blue in Dallas something like that would kill here.

If you are way north Bryan, you are about 15 minutes from the Dixie Caf in Hearne...the best breakfast around.

Cafe Eccell. I have found that a lot of people don't know they have a brunch menu on weekends.

No such thing. Stop trying so hard. Hope it wasn't too hard for you to find some coffee and breakfast food.

It's in College Station but we enjoy breakfast at Ozona's! Buppy's on Sulphur Springs in Bryan has a good brunch on Sunday!

Dixie Cafe is really good. it would be great if a place like that could make it here, but these places seem now to be relegated to small towns where they can afford the rent, or own the place because they have been there so long. what a shame. remember going with my grandparents 40 years ago to Margie's Cafe in downtown Bryan for breakfast. They would let me order coffee. sipped my coffee and listened to them talk to everybody in there, while i ate a great breakfast. loved those waitresses. they had been there forever. good times!

I'm sure I'll get blasted for this, but Christopher's is outstanding for brunch (Beignets in particular)...and depending on what you order its pretty reasonable. Their beignets taste just like the tasty ones at Cafe du Monde in New Orleans.

Its interesting that we have a good number of brunch places--Christopher's, Ozona, Hullabaloo, World of Beer, Cafe Eccell, Blackwater Draw--but few breakfast places.

Would kill for a place like Launderette in Austin but, yeah, I know...

Yes to the breakfast food.

Hell no to every other aspect of that place.

Haven't seen it mentioned, but Village Cafe in downtown Bryan has a decent breakfast menu.

Downtown Bryan: I like Village Cafe too. Sometimes they are a little slow but they are growing and hiring more people. Casa Rod has a good breakfast. My kids favorite breakfast tacos are Garpez, in the gas station at the corner of 6 and Harvey near Sams.

Garpez is currently closed, for how long I don't know. Sal Garza passed away this weekend.

Really sad to hear that. One of my favorite spots in town. Super nice, funny guy, and way too young.

The only place in town I trusted for menudo and loved talking to Mama Garza about it. Their breakfast plates were great. Ugh.

That stinks about Garpez. Not my favorite breakfast tacos but their chips y salsa are the best.

Not wanting to derail, but yes, a REALLY great guy from a wonderful family and he was way too young.

Edited to add: I don't know the future status of the restaurant. I was only specifying why you'll find it closed at this time.

WOW! Just saw him last week! What happened?
OnlyANobody
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Yes, so did I. You never think it's the last time, though. I don't know what happened and of course, will not inquire of the family. It's just too much. Here's what I do know about arrangements at this time: The viewing has been arranged, but services are still pending. Information should be in The Eagle on Thursday.

Maybe I should have started a different thread. I truly did not intend to derail this thread. My heart is so broken for this sweet family.

Ozona on Harvey is a good weekend breakfast.
