If the weather is nice enough (and when is it not in Noe Valley?), ask to be seated in the outside patio area.

Here at Toast Eatery, the brunch game is strong and be prepared to take a minute or two to make your decision on what to have. Try their breakfast burrito (enough for two) and have it ‘wet’, which means it is covered in ranchero sauce. If you’re not in the savory mood, instead indulge in a belgian waffle smothered in strawberries, blueberries and bananas and drizzled with nutella.

Presentation is everything at Cafe XO. Located just at the cusp of Glen Park, Cafe XO offers a great selection of homemade pies, smoothies, muffins, and other delectable treats to satisfy your brunch cravings.

For extra hungry brunchers, get to Chloe’s Cafe early and secure your spot along with the long line waiting to do the same. They open at 8am everyday, so plan wisely to get your brunch fix.

Tucked away toward the edge of Noe Valley lies Diamond Cafe, a hidden gem. After you make the trek up 24th Street and (finally) reach it, find a table and order a cold glass of freshly squeezed orange juice. Try their huevos rancheros platter if you’re looking to chow down, but if a snack is more of your calling, try one of their sweet morning buns.

If you’re looking for a twist on a classic breakfast food, stop in at Griddle Fresh and order their take on a traditional breakfast by ordering souffle pancakes.

If pastries are your jam, head on over to La Boulange de Noe. Take a gander at the vast selection of pastries offered ranging from savory to sweet.
