The Crestwood Barn
When it comes to a great place to head in the morning, the Crestwood Barn is known to locals as "A Bastion of Breakfast Brilliance." The menu is as unique as it is appetizing, and the only problem will be choosing just one dish. This establishment offers everything from pancakes or French toast to more rich and delectable choices such as the Rajun' Cajun Benedict - a toasted English muffin topped with homemade crawfish cakes, poached eggs, and cajun hollandaise. The Crestwood Barn is a restaurant that you won't soon forget, and the rustic atmosphere is the perfect cozy setting in which to enjoy the most important meal of the day.
hatch'd STL
The father-and-son-owners of this establishment describe the concept as an "American breakfast, with twists here and there." That's just what you'll find at hatch'd STL, with menu offerings that include an early bird special consisting of two eggs, two strips of bacon, hash browns, toast or pancakes, and a cup of coffee or soft drink, or maybe a single waffle covered in fresh fruit of your choice. Want something a little spicer? That's great because you'll find choices like the Benny's Got Beef, which is an English muffin, smoked brisket, jalapeƱo queso, two sunny-side-up eggs, and pico. Whether you are hungry for a simple bite to eat or something more hearty, hatch'd STL has you covered. Enjoy needlepoint work from the owner's grandmother as well as his personal collection of St. Louis Cardinals bobbleheads that decorate the dining room as you enjoy your breakfast.

When a sweet and savory breakfast is what you are craving, Yolklore is where you need to go. Everything is made in-house from scratch, so you'll always be getting a meal prepared with the highest quality ingredients and served in a casual, colorful, and friendly atmosphere. Be sure to try a classic breakfast of two eggs, a biscuit with gravy, bacon, and potatoes, or a freshly prepared frittata made with spinach and local mushrooms and topped with lemon herb goat cheese. In a hurry? Grab a B.Y.O. breakfast sandwich made with your choice of bread, protein, and a topping.
Sunny Street Cafe
The ultimate in family-owned goodness, Sunny Street Cafe has plenty of classics as well as unique dishes to choose from. Locals can't get enough of the famous fluffy pillow pancakes made with real buttermilk, eggs benedict, or the famous hearty breakfast - a wholesome dish consisting of two eggs any style, your choice of bacon, sausage, ham, or chicken sausage, and buttermilk pancakes. Perhaps you'd like to try one of the specialties, such as loaded hash browns, homemade corned beef hash, or stuffed biscuit and gravy. Not super hungry? Order a light dish of avocado toast, banana bread oatmeal, or a berry yogurt bowl.
