I’m always up for trying a new breakfast joint, and I noticed this one in that breakfast heavy corner of 26th and Wilshire.
Cute logo.
Very simple space that does the job.
The menu has a lot of options, particularly for those with a sweet tooth.
And look, latte art!
banana split waffle. belgian waffle topped with ice cream, whipped cream, bananas, strawberries & chocolate sauce
Breakfast burrito. mushrooms, onions, bacon, eggs, potatoes & crispy chicken, topped with enchilada, salsa verde and queso fresco. That’s a lot in one burrito!
eggs benedict. crispy chicken on mini waffles.
eggs benedict. smoked salmon on mini waffles.
eggs benedict. canadian bacon on mini waffles.
Chicken & waffle: huevos rancheros. with queso fresca, refried beans, fried egg, guacamole & red salsa. Seems a little scary, but those that ate it enjoyed it a lot.
Chicken & waffle: Golden goat. served with goat cheese and honey. A seemingly weird combination, but the salty sweet was quite good. Nice chunks of boneless crispy fried chicken too.
chicken on fire. served with grilled onions, grilled jalapenos, oaxacan cheese with blazing sauce. Very savory. Quite delicious, but sticks with you for a WHILE because of the heavy carb and fat factor.
Overall, Bru’s definitely seemed solid for a casual (and hearty) breakfast place. The staff was very friendly too. There are a lot of substantial options and it would make a great place for a crazy treat of a breakfast with my son (can we say chocolate waffles?).
