ButterPunk

A colorful, women-owned biscuit-and-coffee bakery run by an acclaimed pastry chef, turning out laminated butter-bomb biscuits, souffle-egg sandwiches, and cake by the slice. It's a destination morning in the River Arts District, not a quick grab. Get there early, because it tends to sell out by noon.

Daymoon Coffeebar

The closest good coffee to home, and it happens to have a drive-thru. On a slow morning that combination is hard to beat. Pull up, grab your cortado, keep moving.

Neng Jr.'s Locals’ pick

This is the hardest reservation in town right now, and it earns it. The Filipino menu is bold and personal, nothing watered down for a wider crowd. Book early or plan on missing it.

Hole Doughnuts

They fry the doughnuts to order, so you're eating them warm and a little crackly at the edges. It's a small menu done exactly right. Get there before the line does.
