5 Weekday Brunches to Experience in Little Rock

Sometimes, we want the weekend to extend to Monday.  Other times we want to get the weekend started early.  Who’s to say we can’t have mimosas on a Wednesday?  Whatever the situation, there are many options for a weekday brunch in Little Rock.  While this isn’t a comprehensive list of amazing breakfast options Little Rock has to offer, this will satisfy any weekday brunch craving you will have! Are we missing your favorite restaurant?  Let us know with an email. @ the Corner   201 E Markham St. Little Rock, AR 72201 501.400.8458 Visit Website This modern and charming diner is the perfect place to enjoy specialty mimosas and people-watch on a bustling downtown street.  While you miss the chef’s special weekend menu, you also avoid a line around the corner during the week.  The weekday menu is a wonderfully curated selection featuring organic, local, and fresh ingredients throughout.  The brunch poutine is a delicious nod to the chef’s Canadian roots, and the house made cinnamon rolls are always fantastic. Hillcrest Little Bakery   203 N Van Buren St Little Rock, AR 72205 501.747.4960 Visit Website The owners here renovated a nondescript home into a quaint and bright bakery serving huge amounts of food from a tiny and efficient kitchen.  Biscuits are the star of the show on the menu, and they are huge, fluffy, and buttery.  They can be served with a variety of biscuit and gravy dishes, or used in their biscuit sandwiches.  No matter what you choose, save room for their cheesecakes, which are made from a family recipe and worth enjoying on a weekday brunch date. Red Door   3701 Cantrell Rd Little Rock, AR 72202 501.666.8482 Visit Website This Midtown restaurant generally comes with a line on the weekends, so you can avoid it with a great weekday brunch.  Start with a bacon-infused bloody mary before looking over the impressive menu.  The croissant French toast is a hit, along with their multiple benedict options to satisfy any craving.  Multiple covered patio options allow for a long and relaxing outdoor brunch as well. Delicious Temptations   11220 N Rodney Parham Rd #8 Little Rock, AR 72212 501.225.6893 Visit Website You will find classic Southern diner cooking when you arrive at Delicious Temptations.  This strip center location boasts a large menu of all of the breakfast classics.  There are no frills other than well executed food at an amazing value.  It is no wonder the restaurant has lasted for over 40 years.  The DT omelette filled with crab meat is a great weekday brunch option to make it through any work week. Big Bad Breakfast   101 S Bowman Rd Little Rock, AR 72211 501.406.0195 Visit Website This small regional chain from 2009 James Beard award winner John Currence landed in Little Rock in mid-2022 and instantly became a breakfast favorite.  The menu is full of New Orleans influence, with elevated classics like the creole omelet or “redneck’ benny.  The seasonal menu always has items that are missed when no longer available.  While there is usually a small wait during the week to get a table, it is always worth visitng.
