Surprisingly, one of the better vegan breakfasts in San Diego I've had.
Had a work pow wow function and we decided on this local spot near work. We were not disappointed.
Location/Ambiance/Overall Vibe:
Heart of Mission Valley in the shopping plaza with plenty of parking. Seating available indoor, outdoor, or at the bar. BR is lively, stylish, and a perfect spot for groups. Great energy, cute interior, and a great stress-free experience.
Vegan Options FTW:
Got to love that the menu caters to whatever you are craving: vegan or not, healthy or not, sweet or savory, they got it! Check their menu. They have a vegan section that stands out like the Jammin' Bennie, vegan Benedict, harvest omelet, avocado toast, and vegan tres leches pancakes. Got some of my co-workers to even try their vegan items and they were impressed!
Order:
Jammin' Bennie - Yummy in my tummy! It's Italian vegan sausage, plant-based eggs which I believe is made of mung beans, and creamy vegan hollandaise with a bold jalapeno blackberry jam. Side of house potatoes. Could have fooled me! A bit salty for my liking. A tad more hollandaise would be great and the muffin could have been less soggy, but overall it's a filling and flavorful meal. 4/5
For something sweet, I suggest the vegan Tres Leches pancakes! This is if you want to be naughty. It's dangerously good. Fluffy, soaked in syrup, topped with strawberries and pistachio brittle. All my favs in one! Beats any regular pancake. A delightful treat! 5/5
Finished it off with in-house fresh squeezed OJ!
Service and Portions:
Service is friendly, attentive, and kind even during a rush. Portions are big so come hungry and leave stuffed!
Final Take:
They are not full vegan, but fully impressive! You can tell they are really trying to appeal to everyone so KUDOS for that! I recommend this spot for your taste buds and your tummy will thank you.
