There are two types of people: those who can’t function without bacon, eggs, and toast… and those who would happily skip straight to lunch. Naturally, these two types end up being best friends, which makes deciding where to eat a bit of a weekly debate. Luckily, there is a solution for this: Brunch!

Around here, we love brunch. Maybe it’s the excuse to ease into the morning a little bit slower, or maybe it’s because Ocean City has so many great brunch options. Either way, it’s always the right choice! We took to Instagram to ask for your favorite brunch locations and must-order dishes, and you delivered. Here’s where to find the best brunch in OC this spring.

“Barn 34! Give me the Fried Green Tomatoes please!”

Barn 34 Fried Green Tomatoes

When it comes to brunching at Barn 34, you’re in for a treat. Their menu covers all of the bases: benedicts, omelettes, french toast, sandwiches, the list goes on. Plus, they offer a stand out coffee menu of both the regular and the spiked varieties.

However, one of their dishes in particular is a fan favorite: the fried green tomatoes! Crispy on the outside, layered with savory goodness and just the right hint of sweet and tangy on the inside, they’re always a great option.

“Sunrise Diner for the Bumble Toast”

French toast is delicious on its own, but Bumble Toast? That’s what happens when French toast gets an insanely exciting glow up at Sunrise Diner. Three pieces of thick-cut, golden French toast piled high with peanut butter, bananas, whipped cream, wildflower honey, and organic bee pollen crumbles! It looks just as delicious as it tastes.

“Bayside Skillet - Strawberry Chocolate Crepes”

Are you more of a sweet over savory breakfast person? If so, Bayside Skillet is where you need to go. Delicate crepes with fresh strawberries and a chocolate drizzle? It’s basically an acceptable (and highly encouraged) dessert-for-breakfast option.

Pair it with your favorite coffee (hot or iced), sit back, and enjoy a meal that’s just as sweet as being on vacation.

“Crab Cake Egg Rolls from Harpoon Hanna’s”

When in town, why not enjoy crabs for breakfast? If you’re staying uptown or want to make a short drive just over the Delaware line, head to Harpoon Hanna’s for their incredible Crab Cake Egg Rolls. These aren’t your average brunch starter: they’re so much more. They’re seafood delicious-ness in handheld form, and they’re a hit 100% of the time. Order two plates. Trust us.

Brunching in Ocean City is about more than the meal. It’s about the experience of taking a slow morning to relax with friends and family. Of course, the delicious food options are the wonderful cherry on top. So, the question is… team fried green tomatoes? Team crepes? Team bumble toast? Team crab cake egg rolls? What’ll it be?!
