Brunch in the Mission, San Francisco, CA

The Phoenix Irish Bar

30s / 40s / Beer / Blue Collar / Blues

Party Earth Review The Mission area may not be a sports bar lover’s paradise, but the lack of competition isn’t the only reason The Phoenix Irish Bar is so popular.

Brunch in the Mission Overview

Lost Weekend Video - Event Space in Mission, SF

Brunch in the Mission is a hit for those who live and play in this up-and-coming San Francisco neighborhood. And if the number of folks who take foodie shots with their iPhones is any indication, the grub served in this part of town tastes just as good as it looks.

At The Sycamore, diners delight in the cheap bottomless mimosas and pork-belly donuts for an Americana-inspired nosh. Over at Mission Beach Café, folks fill up on a seasonal menu with innovative takes on traditional brunch favorites, such as the short rib and sweet potato-apple hash.

For an alcoholic twist on Mission brunch, Mexican haunt Tacolicious offers liquory libations like sparkling sangria and Bloody Marias. Then there’s the always-packed Beretta, where the beloved pizza is still front-and-center with doughy breakfast offerings that feature carbonara with bacon, eggs, and mozzarella.

Those seeking a late breakfast in the Mission run the gamut. Hipster foodies, creative young professionals, fashionable groups of ladies, trendy families, and smart couples are known to frequent eateries in this area.
