Best Brunch Spots in Virginia Beach:
Bay Local Eatery
One of my favorite parts of brunch is ordering a Bloody, and one that you'll find at Bay Local Eatery is pretty special. Called the "Bloody Blue," this awesome version of a Bloody Mary features a soft-shell crab on top. It isn't always offered, so you'll have to keep an eye out, but they've still got other Bloody Marys to choose from, along with various cocktails and, of course, delicious food.
Citrus Cafe
If you like bubbles, you're going to love Citrus. Citrus has many mimosas and mimosa-adjacent cocktails to choose from. From the Margarita Mimosa to the Mermaid Mimosa and lots more, you've got options. Indulge in the seafood experience with dishes like the Softshell Crab Benedict (seasonal) or the Lump Crab Benedict for your meal.
Mary's Kitchen
Mary's Kitchen is a popular local spot with awesome prices. Order the fried or Grilled Flounder and eggs to stay on the seafood train. Mary's was started over 60 years ago by a woman named Mary Craft, and her recipes are still used today.
Commune
Commune focuses on bringing people together through local ingredients. Before opening Commune, the owner worked with chefs and restaurants as a local sustainable farmer for years. For an awesome farm-to-table brunch experience, you can't miss out on Commune. It's fresh, healthy, local, and fantastic.
Doc Taylor's
From 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. on Thursdays through Mondays, you can order breakfast or lunch at Doc Taylor's. This Oceanfront spot that used to be a doctor's home serves delicious Southern-inspired cuisine. Try the Sweet Potato Pecan pancakes for something sweet, or go savory and get the Curry's Irish Corned Beef Hash. Don't forget a side of Cheddar Gritz!
The Bee and the Biscuit
For an adorable brunch experience, go to The Bee & the Biscuit. The vibe is lovely and the menu options are mouth-watering. The Orange Zest Ham Biscuit combines sweet and savory by including country ham and melted Swiss cheese on an orange zest biscuit and serving it with orange jam. You also get a fresh fruit cup. You may also choose to get the Bay Crab Benedict. There are lots of great possibilities here. Try one of their delectable mason jar desserts while you're there too!
Waterman's Surfside Grille
Don't miss out on Sunday brunch at Waterman's Surfside Grille. They've got good stuff like the Chicken Biscuit Sliders, and the Crab Benedict; plus, every brunch entree comes with a sticky bun! They also serve up apps (the She Crab Soup is a house fav), omelets, and more.
