For those in search of a killer bacon, egg, and cheese sandwich in Mount Pleasant, make your way to the new location of Bodega. This is the second outpost of the downtown Bodega, which specializes in breakfast sandwiches, brunch cocktails, and New York-inspired lunch items, like a chopped cheese on a kaiser roll.

Spread Bagelry

New Mount Pleasant addition Spread Bagelry offers wood-fired Montreal-style bagels, which are thinner than the New York style and with a larger hole. There’s plenty of choices of bagels and spreads, but the stacked sandwiches are the way to go for a really filling meal — the melted pimento cheese with bacon and tomato is a standout star.

Bourbon N' Bubbles

Upper King bar Bourbon N’ Bubbles now offers a sophisticated brunch service with caviar deviled eggs, bomboloni, a crispy rice bowl, and plenty of espresso martinis.

The menu includes ube lattes, guava “Pop-Tarts,” egg sandwiches with pork belly adobo, and pancit with local lump crab. There’s also karaoke for a bit more fun.

Prohibition

Upper King hangout Prohibition has a new brunch menu full of small plates meant for sharing. Chef Greg Garrison has introduced flavors from all around the globe with items like Turkish eggs, a street corn tostada, a chopped cheese sandwich, and Charleston fried rice.

The Peacock

Have brunch on the rooftop terrace at the Peacock (formerly named the Habit). Take in views of the harbor with a mimosa and a breakfast sandwich, shakshuka, or hash browns and caviar.

European cafe Azur serves hearty brunch items like the Azur burger (beef burgundy, tomato, and Emmental cheese on a croissant bun) and lighter plates, like the shrimp salad on avocado toast. There’s plenty of quiches, frittatas, and mimosas to go around too.

Sorelle

Caviar for breakfast? Italian restaurant Sorelle can make that happen. The swanky Broad Street spot launches brunch service on May 12 with selections ranging from stone fruit caprese to carbonara pizza to mortadella panino. For real indulgence, pair the caviar service with lobster Benedict and a round of champagne.
