Best brunch spots in Miracle Mile/Fairfax district

Judging solely from the weekend crowds outside West 3rd Street restaurant Toast, it may seem like the only brunch spot in the area. In fact, there are tons of eateries from Fairfax to La Brea where you can eat a delicious brunch without having TMZ's cameras in your eggs benedict.

1. Little Next Door   Fairfax District

Even though it's down the street from Toast, the ambience couldn't be any more different. There might be a slight 20 minute wait on weekends, but the quaint French atmosphere and giant latte cups are well worth it.

2. BLD   Fairfax District

Despite a recent incident involving salmonella and the restaurant's hollandaise sauce, BLD is still a reliable and often busy brunch spot. The ricotta blueberry pancakes are delicious and their coffee is strong and satisfying.

3. Cafe Midi   Fairfax District

A seat at one of the coveted outdoor tables may require a wait, but you can always pass the time browsing the charmingly rustic housewares at Maison Midi or the vintage racks at American Rag.


4. Joan's on Third   West Hollywood

Newly expanded, there is now more room to enjoy Joan's new breakfast menu which ranges from soft boiled organic eggs to gelato-filled brioche buns.

5. Mäni's Bakery Cafe   Miracle Mile

Whether you're watching what you eat for health or vanity reasons, Mani's menu is entirely organic--the bakery even offers several sweetener substitutes such as agave syrup and organic cane sugar.

6. Kings Road Cafe   West Hollywood

People debate over whether this busy Beverly Blvd. eatery is actually good or if it's highly overrated, but I think the chicken cilantro omelette and the strong, savory coffee deserve a thumbs up.

7. Jar   West Hollywood

One can expect Jar's signature succulent roasts at its Sunday brunch. Dig the pot roast? Try it with two eggs and potatoes.

8. Campanile   Fairfax District

The weekend brunch is a little on the pricey side, but there's a reason why it's an L.A. classic. Suggest going for mom's birthday, so pops can pay for it.

9. Du-Par's Restaurant & Bakery   Miracle Mile

Since it's open 24 hours, brunch can be had at 3 a.m. on a Tuesday. Sweet.

10. Lulu's Cafe  

The food may border on average, but the packed sidewalk tables make it a great people-watching spot every weekend .
