    Inside dead! No surprising
    Judy B.

    Run far away!!!! You pay $3+ for parking because they don't have their own lot. We came in 1 hour after they were open, asked to start out with their famous cinnamon bacon roll and was told they weren't ready yet. The waitress was very nice! We were the only ones in there and we ordered tamale waffle, churro waffle, and a kids scramble. My tamale waffle came out luke warm to cold. I feel like mine was made first and just sat there. Flavor was lacking and dry. I was excited to try a different than usual breakfast item but it really fell short. At the end for 2 adults and a child we were charged 16% living wage fee. It's not my responsibility to pay your workers more. Either up charge the plates or pay your own workers more. I felt bad for the pregnant waitress and still tipped her $10. By this restaurant trying to sneak charges in, it will not bring return customers. 1st off the food is lack luster and with the fees of parking and extra charge in the restaurant definitely not worth a return visit! It's giving desperation and will shut down and be something new in a year or 2.

    The food looked much better than it tasted. It was disappointing. Tasted bland, lacked basic seasoning. Service was good. It's a cute place. One thing that bothered me is service fee of 16% automatically added because owner said that his employees deserve earning living wage? Since when a living wage / salary is the responsibility of patrons visiting your place? You must be a greedy owner to not pay your employees so called living wage. Won't return. This policy only hurts your employees.

    Vegan Benedict: 4/5 Service was very friendly. Wish they continued their tofu dish, but they discontinued it. The vegan Benedict was a solid vegetarian option. Very filling as it comes with a side of potatoes. The seasoning could use a little more flavor. It was a little sour/bitter than the savory flavor I was hoping for. Nice old lodge aesthetic inside.

    Veggie Breakfast Burrito (sans tortilla and cheese)
    Jana H.

    Really solid breakfast/brunch with a large menu, which was easily able to accommodate many dietary restrictions! Shared the Verde Hash and Vegetarian Breakfast Burrito (which we had as a bowl to make it gluten free). The hash was amazing, had such good flavors, and a generous portion of meat and the potato medley. The burrito flavors were pretty good, but wish it came with more tots since we didn't have the tortilla to go with it. It was definitely enough (maybe a little too much) for two people to share. Would absolutely have wanted to try more items! The host and waitress were both super friendly and our waitress was the perfect amount of checking in (at the right times), asking correct questions, and noticing our needs. She was so excellent!!

    Chicken and waffles with an extra syrup
    Mark E.

    First off let me say, I went on a Saturday morning (8:15 am) and there was plenty of free parking available on a city lot next door. It was not super busy, but then again the whole city must not wake up until 10am The waitress who sat me was very pleasant with a (beautiful smile I might add), brought me some coffee very quickly (and kept if filled. which was good, the atmosphere was also very nice and clean. All of the food looked great but I chose the chicken and waffles which I am glad I did. The chicken was nice and juicy with the perfect coating and paired excellent with the cinnamon waffles and maple syrup, usually the chicken is dry with too much batter. It was just the right portion. I will define eat here again in the future. 5 out of 5

    It's so shady to me how the owner writes "Since Bruncheonette relies on great teamwork from all staff members and that every employee is worthy of a "living wage", Bruncheonette has chosen to add a 16% Service Charge to your bill. 100% of this fee is then distributed amongst all of our hardworking employees who served you today." YOU should be paying them a "living wage"??? Making it seem like it's insane that we want workers to get the payment they deserve. It doesn't add up insanely much when you share items or come alone, but it can easily get large if you come with a big group. The food is also extremely mediocre, nothing had flavor so I was just eating different textures of mush lol. Excellent presentation though! Nice workers too so it sucks for them that their boss created a system that gets them less tips.

    Veggie scramble
    Charley B.

    Super good brunch spot in Spokane. We went right at 8am and were the first ones there on a Saturday morning but the place filled up FAST + rightly fully so. The food was great, and the menu had tons of options from savory to sweet to more lunch items + lots of fun drinks. We got the veggie scramble and the loaded scramble with the country medley potato's- 10/10. The servers were so friendly, and great with the rush. I recommend for a breakfast spot in Spokane!

    Chicken fried steak and chicken and waffles
    Steve B.

    Service: Our waitress was great. Friendly, quick, laughed at my jokes, and handled everything smoothly. Zero complaints. If this review were based on her alone, we'd be planning a second date. Food: I had the chicken fried steak. Flavor was solid, eggs were cooked perfectly over medium, and the fried potato medley was legit. The breading, however, did not want to commit and slid off the steak like it had somewhere else to be. My wife ordered the chicken and waffles. The chicken was cooked perfectly... moist, flavorful, no notes. The waffle had an interesting flavor profile. It tasted fine to me, but the cinnamon came in hot. Less "hint of cinnamon," more "main character energy." Vibe: Nice spot overall. My wife, who operates at near-elite cleanliness standards, thought it could be cleaner. I thought it was fine. Jury's out. Price (aka "The Relationship Red Flag"): Menu prices were reasonable... honestly, they could've even been slightly higher and I wouldn't have cared. But here's the issue. There's a mandatory 16% service charge. Yes, it is technically disclosed... buried at the very bottom of the menu, tacked onto the end of a sentence about Washington's 9% sales tax. Bolded, sure... but not explained, not obvious, and not something most people would catch before paying. So now we're at: 9% tax 16% service charge tip (because most people don't notice in time) That's over 25% extra, and suddenly brunch feels like a pop quiz in math I didn't study for. This takes tipping out of the customer's hands and turns it into forced gratuity. Good service, bad service, amazing food, disappointing food... the charge is coming either way. That just doesn't sit right with me. I'm a good tipper. I'm also a fan of transparency. This trend isn't it, and it's the kind of thing that makes people rethink eating out altogether. Final Verdict: Good service. Good food. Nice space. But the hidden-feeling surcharge killed the vibe. So Brunchenette... we had some good times. But the trust is gone. We are broken up at this point. It's not me. It's definitely you. *To be fair, the 2 star rating in this review reflects what I feel (even though it is disclosed vaguely) the deceptive service fee. This does not reflect the food, service, or atmosphere of the restaurant.

    Shrimp and grits, but I got some eggs on top! Pro-move...
    James B.

    Had the shrimp and grits... delicious bouncy perfectly cooked large portion of toothsome grits with thin slices of andouille and plenty of red peppers and onions. Ordered a yuzu - sake-lemon mimosa which was delicious and properly tart! Service was excellent! Friendly and direct. It was an early morning on a Monday so it was very quiet and pleasant , big I imagine this place is crazy on the weekends!

    Smoked Brisket Hash

    I had a wonderful time at Bruncheonette today. The staff was extremely friendly, especially our waitress Vivian. It's a very cute place to eat with delicious food. The smoked brisket was incredible and the hot chocolate was amazing, topped with homemade whipped cream. Vivian was so sweet, helping give us local bookstore recommendations. Overall, the experience was great and we highly recommend stopping here when you're in Spokane.

    Brisket Hash with Sunny Side Up Egg

    I had a great experience at Bruncheonette! I came in on a weekday with 4 others, and got seated with no issue. I've heard about Bruncheonette for a while now, and was looking forward to trying a new breakfast spot while I'm still in Spokane! I saw previous reviews had pretty hit or miss experiences with the service, but I thought my waitress today was great! She was kind, attentive, and definitely seemed like she enjoyed her job and interacting with customers. Food came out fairly quickly -- I got the smoked brisket hash, as well as an apple cider. The apple cider was warm and cozy, which was much needed on a chilly day! I thought the hash was great too, I didn't think I would be full but I but the quantity was perfect. It was flavorful, and not too dry (I feel like brisket often comes out pretty dry). Honestly, there were so many other things on the menu that I wanted to try as well, I would definitely come back!

    If I could give 6 stars, Bruncheonette would definitely receive them. Tremendous breakfast and service was phenomenal. We came on Monday, the last day we were in Spokane and what a treat for all of us. Our daughter and I started with a special Mimosa, hers being Mango and mine Peach. So good. My wife had the Vegan Breakfast Tacos with Tater Tots and she loved it. Our daughter and I each had the Chicken Fried Steak...and it ranks with the best. So tender, and the gravy was extremely flavorful. I had fries and our daughter had the tots as the accompanying item. The eggs were also a perfect over easy. Chyrsten was also extremely friendly and engaging. She knew the menu quite well, and assisted us in ordering. I wish Bruncheonette was in the Portland area as we would be regulars. Thank you for a great visit.

    Been here several times and the food is always delicious and the portions are a good size. The place is clean and staff is friendly. This has become one of my go to brunch spots while in Spokane.
