2 Vegas Brunches You Should Check Out This Weekend

When it comes to Vegas brunches, let's just say we have options. So much so, in fact, that sometimes local restaurants have to up the game to keep their patrons coming back. Well, there are two brunches happening in Vegas this weekend that look like a lot of fun, because both of them are themed. One is going to hook you up with free stuff if you come dressed like your BFF. And the other is paying homage to the most beloved BFFs on television.

There are many things being celebrated on the weekend of June 8. It is Nevada Free Fishing Day, which will see a lot of locals out and about get some outdoor recreation. And it's also Free Adventure Day 2024, and all of our state parks will be waiving their admission fees for visitors. But what about those of us who don't like the outdoors in summertime? Or those who don't do any meal of the day if it happens before 11 a.m.? Brunch was made for those people, and these two Vegas brunches are giving a little extra incentive to come out this weekend. With drink specials and gift bags.

June 8 is also National Best Friends Day. And the Broken Yolk Cafe is honoring the special day with a special offer for BFFs. If you have breakfast, brunch or lunch at Broken Yolk Cafe dressed identical to your best friend, you'll both get a "Bestie Bag". Inside will be a friendship bracelet and other treats, as well as a free pancake card for your next visit.

Brunch is the best time of day because you get the option of choosing breakfast and lunch for one meal. Why pick between scrambled eggs and bacon with brown butter pancakes or a fried chicken sandwich on jidori bread when you can have both?

The consensus on brunch is that it officially starts at 11:00 a.m. and runs until about 3 p.m. That is a four hour window to awaken your inner hunger demons to come out and play.

Downtown Summerlin is the upper echelon of shopping malls in Las Vegas and anyone that tells you different must live in Henderson. Just kidding.

The upscale outdoor shopping mall features many favorite stores including: Apple Store, Bath and Body Works, Macys and Lulu Lemon. They have a wide variety of dining choices with local hotspots like Maggiano's, Public School 702 and True Food Kitchen.

There is a relatively newer restaurant in town called, Fine Company. Many mall frequents may know what we are talking about but if you don't see below:

Fine Company feels very cozy on the inside with darker toned wood-panel walls and lots of grandiose foliage in the center of the room. The atmosphere is causal where workers on lunch or the occasional couple would come to dine.

The cashless restaurant is an elevated eatery with a focus on healthy plates. Chef Roy Ellemar is the mastermind behind the dishes while "focusing on the local community" states FineCompanyLV.com.

A few of their classic menu-items include:

Brunch Plates: Mom's Banana Bread which features local wild flower honey, good butter and delicate sea salt.

Eggs & Friends: Breakfast Burger which features 6oz beef burger, new school American cheese, bacon, French toast bun, hash-brown, maple syrup and a sunny egg.

According to their website, FineCompanyLV.com, they also offer a luxurious 'Golden Hour' complimentary cocktail (Monday through Friday) on their patio from 6p.m. - 8p.m.

The food at Fine Company is very tasty, cooked-well and displayed perfect for post-worthy photos on social media.

Located under Brunch Plates is a banana bread that will make your mouth water just thinking about it. This food item is served until 2 p.m. which is an hour before restaurant close. Hostess recommended and the softness and banana flavor packs a punch in each and every bite. The plate is served with a swirly creamy butter that pairs perfectly. The cost of Mom's Banana Bread is $10.

Located under Shareable Plates are well stuffed and savory dates. The dates are stuffed with lamb sausage, goat cheese, red pepper romesco and parsley pesto.

Located under Eggs & Friends is a play on the Dr. Suess' "Green Eggs and Ham." The plate was was full in proportion and light on flavor.

As we were told, this menu-item is seasonal.
