What brunch sides should you order?

When you join us for a delicious Smyrna brunch, you may find yourself overwhelmed by the number of side options we have, and we don’t blame you! After all, with so many delicious choices, it can be difficult to know what to order. The best advice we can give you is to pick a side whose flavors complement your main dish, bring out something it’s missing, or (if all else fails) simply follow our suggestions for sides to order with our most popular dishes.

If You Order the Hash Brown Bowl

If you’ve spent time searching for “brunch near me,” you may have come across the hash brown bowl on our menu. As one of our customers’ favorite brunch items, the hash brown bowl is perfect for anyone looking for a savory breakfast. Made with 2 eggs cooked any style, cheese, hash-brown casserole, peppers, onions, crumbled sausage, and chipotle hollandaise, this breakfast is as filling as it is delicious. Because this bowl is already so hearty, we recommend a side that is lighter and fresher to go with it. Try our fresh fruit or seasonal vegetables for the perfect pairing.

If You Order the Chicken and Waffle

Nothing says “classic Southern breakfast” like chicken and waffles, and ours is made with a crispy fried chicken breast and a buttermilk waffle that will melt in your mouth. To complete your Southern brunch, we recommend you order a side of grits. With or without cheese, our grits will make you feel like you’re eating your grandmother’s traditional cooking in the best way.

If You Order the Blueberry Pancakes

We firmly believe that the only thing better than pancakes is blueberry pancakes. That’s why our fluffy blueberry pancakes are some of the tastiest you’ll ever have, and the blueberry ginger compote, whipped cream, and maple syrup that they’re served with only adds to their flavor. The best brunch sides to order with these pancakes would add something savory to your meal like our chicken apple sausage or bacon.

If You Order the Shrimp and Grits

Another Southern staple, our shrimp and grits are made with Tasso ham, andouille, tomatoes, pickled peppers, cajun cream sauce, and micro cilantro for the perfect balance of hearty with a kick. Balance out this kick by ordering it with our fluffy buttermilk pancakes or savory hash-brown casserole.

If You Order the French Toast

One of our favorite brunch items, our french toast is perfectly sugary and buttery and served with fresh berries along with your choice of sausage and bacon. Since you already have the sweet and savory covered with this delicious brunch item, the only thing left to make the perfect brunch is to order a side that’s salty. Try our breakfast potatoes or french fries to complete your meal.
