It’s always brunch time at Beth’s Cafe, a 24-hour institution famed for its 12-egg omelettes and pizza pan–size platters of hash browns. The place is free of frills, but the Amish friendship bread is made in house and the daily brew is from the locally loved Caffe Vita (caffevita.com). 7311 Aurora Ave N; bethscafe.com
Tom Douglas is a Pacific Northwest cooking star, but he puts his own spin on Southern classics at Serious Biscuit in South Lake Union. It features supersize, fresh-baked buttermilk versions, either smothered in creamy gravy or served like sandwiches. Robust fillings range from fried chicken to house-made peanut butter with bananas and honey. 401 Westlake Ave N; seriouspieseattle.com/westlake
Chef Mark Fuller drew on his Hawaiian heritage to launch Ma’ono, where eats include gourmet takes on loco moco (beef patties covered in gravy), coconut French toast, and a fried chicken so beloved it has to be reserved in advance. Bottomless mimosas add to the aloha spirit. 4437 California Ave SW; maono.springhillnorthwest.com
At Miller’s Guild in Hotel Max, brunch means hearty dishes created with the aid of the restaurant’s nine-foot-long wood-fired grill. It’s possible to splurge on a 14-ounce steak, but the kitchen also delights with more delicate preparations, like flaky buttermilk biscuits and house-made jam. *612 Stewart St; millersguild.com
