The Best Brunches In Sacramento California

Sacramento is home to many noteworthy and delicious brunch joints that will make your mouth water. With so many places to choose from, we created a guide with our top picks, bringing you the finest cuisine this city has to offer. Make room in your upcoming weekend plans because after reading this, you will not want to miss out on brunch.

Bacon & Butter

Bacon & Butter is well known for their seasonal menu of farm-to-fork California cuisine. The restaurant’s name stemmed from the idea that if you’re skilled at something, it’s considered your ‘bread and butter.’ Chef Zoellin wanted to improve that concept and make it even better by naming this adorable rustic joint ‘Bacon & Butter.’ Highly recommended dishes include the infamous grilled cheese benedict, scrumptious French toast or flapjacks, which are topped with ingredients of the month. There are long lines on the weekend, but Bacon & Butter is well worth the wait.
