Why eat breakfast and lunch when you can brunch!
Sunny Spot
Instagram not only your food but snap a picture with friends outside of Sunny Spot with their mural on Washington Blvd. Sunny Spot offers eclectic options with names almost as good as their food! Try their Hangover Plate, or a side of sweet and salty plantains, and continue the party with cocktails like the tequila and hibiscus “Permanent Vacation.”
Brunch: Saturday & Sunday
9:30 am – 4 pm
822 Washington Blvd, Venice
Salt Air
If seafood is more your taste, make your way to Salt Air in Venice! Their brunch menu offers oysters and a lobster roll. If you have more traditional tastes go for their buttermilk pancakes or French toast – you will not be disappointed!
