51 North 12th Streetįrom noon till 3 p.m. The Pennsylvania Dutch have forgotten more about brunch than most other cultures will ever know (screw you, France), and all of it is on display at this ridiculously busy, ridiculously cheap stand inside Reading Terminal Market. 233 East King Street The Best Brunch in Center City And while the toast bar in particular would fuel our obsession, everyone seems to fall in love with with their own little corner of this place. There are egg bowls, croissant tarts, scratch-made pastries, and a toast bar with homemade jams and butters. We know people who go there every weekend, and we know others who’ve been once and just can’t stop talking about it. This place has a cult following that’s kinda scary. Honey’s has two locations - the original in Northern Liberties and this newer version in Center City - but both of them do the same thing: prove to everyone that brisket tacos, deep-fried cherry pie, and banana cream pie pancakes are really the final word when it comes to Jewish-Southern fusion. Honey’s Sit ‘N Eat, Northern Liberties and Graduate Hospital Their baking team carries the show with amazing pastries and desserts, but the rest of the solidly American menu is almost as good.

101 South 9th Streetįiore has everything you need for a lovely brunch: excellent egg sandwiches on house-made focaccia and English muffins, plus an ever-changing and incredibly tempting selection of pastries, plus gelato to finish it all off.
But all of it is elevated by the wonderful bread produced by the bakers in the back. High Street has toasts, egg sandwiches, and a few brunch classics. K’Far does an Israeli street food thing and the dinners here are great, but the daylight offerings of stretched-out Jerusalem-style bagels, rugelach, babkas and borekas are amazing - as are the crowds sometimes.
