The 23 Best Restaurants On Austin's East Side - Austin - The Infatuation
"Paperboy has come a long way from its humble origin as a popular East Side food truck selling breakfast sandwiches, parfaits, and cinnamon toast. Now, they’re a quintessential brunch spot, also on the East Side, but with a dining room and a rooftop patio. Their claim to fame may have been the BEC sandwich, but there’s a strong menu of toasts, hashes, and even steak and eggs for your friend who’s still on a keto diet. There’s also a full cocktail and coffee menu, whether you’re in recovery mode or are still trying to keep the party going from last night. Getting a table at lunch on a weekday at Paperboy is easy. Getting a table during peak brunch hours on a Saturday or Sunday requires some combination of luck, crossed fingers, and intense planning. Reservations open up on the first of the month on a rolling two-month basis, so you can start planning about 60 days out. But if you’re willing to eat at 2pm, you can usually snag a table just a few weeks out. Spontaneous brunch? They accept a limited number of walk-ins, but be prepared to wait an hour or two." - nicolai mccrary, adele hazan, raphael brion
