A cozy, cool spot with an Airstream serving up brunch delights, caviar, and champers, promising delicious food and a welcoming vibe.
"Named a semifinalist for the 2023 James Beard Awards, Lion and Owl is definitely one of the more high-end options for brunch in Eugene with a small plates approach that encourages your crew to share. The superb seasonal offerings rotate regularly but include options like hazelnut toast with marionberry jelly and foie gras, open-faced omelets with leeks and crab (plus the optional luxe dollop of caviar), and smoked beets with black garlic and chile maple vinaigrette. Make sure to order a round of mimosas for the table and don’t sleep on any of the breads and baked goods." - Brenna Houck
"Helmed by Marche alum and James Beard award semifinalist chef Crystal Platt, Lion & Owl is one of Eugene’s more upscale destinations for brunch, served five days a week; menus change often, with dishes like foie gras toast with marionberry jelly, and open-faced omelets, and waffled chips with salmon roe-topped dip, perfect for sharing with your table mates. Seasonal juices punch up sparkling wine for impeccable mimosas. Don’t overlook dinner, where the menu flips to serve up anything from braised beef cheeks to salmon. Head next door to sister bar Lemon & Olive for a gin martini and ham and gruyere French toast." - Brenna Houck, Jade Yamazaki Stewart
