From omelets to bagels, and kosher and vegan options — there’s a breakfast for everyone on this list
Breakfast is arguably the most important meal of the day, and from time to time, it’s nice to slow down and enjoy a robust first meal from one of DFW’s tastiest breakfast destinations.
From crepes and waffles to loaded breakfast sandwiches and vegan tacos, there’s something for every early riser at one of these essential breakfast spots.
Read MoreThere isn’t a deli on every corner in Dallas, but Cindi’s keeps it real East Coast-style, especially where breakfast is concerned. Indulge your inner New Yorker with lox and bagels, blintzes, and latkes, or stick to classic Texas favorites with migas or a chorizo omelet. Breakfast is served all day, so don’t worry about waking up early.
It’s a near-universally acknowledged fact that if you’re looking for a tasty breakfast sandwich, you hit up Goodfriend Package. The Warbird on a freshly-baked biscuit (egg white, turkey sausage, American cheese, and tomato) is a solid go-to order, while the Scrambler breakfast sandwich (ham, sausage, bacon, scrapple, and scrambled eggs with white cheddar over potato hash) will satisfy any meat lover.
Walking into Shug’s is like walking into a newer, cleaner, classier version of a New York bagel shop. It offers bagels, cream cheeses, and lox in several varieties, including egg bagel sandwiches, lower carb “flagels,” and deli meats plus cheeses and salads by the pound. This fast favorite often boasts a line around the block on weekends.
Have a classic breakfast at Sadelle’s. Try the picture-perfect Eggs Benedict, with numerous options to personalize it. Or spring for the bagel tower, with toppings customized per order.
Low-key and no-frills, John’s Cafe on Lowest Greenville Avenue has been around for five decades. For breakfast, diners can expect omelets, migas, scrambles, waffles, pancakes, and basic breakfasts ordered by loyal neighborhood customers. Make sure you say hi to John; he’ll be up at the front.

Perhaps one of the best in Dallas, the Original Market Diner in the Medical District is the kind of place with a rotating pie case, where the waitresses still call people “sweetie.” Order some crisp, juicy fried chicken sandwiched between fluffy waffles with a side of hash browns, bacon, and eggs. If at all possible, save room for a post-breakfast slice of pie.
Keep the breakfast tacos and head to this joint for a breakfast burrito — and it’s the best the city has to offer.
Order a shakshuka (eggs stewed in tomato sofrito) with olives and grilled bread, or try the lobster Benedict bowl which combines a classic breakfast dish with potato hash. For those looking to feed a sweet tooth, the stack of waffles or Nutella and banana French toast will do the trick.
A Dallas’ stalwart all-day dining institution, Allgood Cafe offers breakfast, lunch, and dinner with live music nightly. Walking around at breakfast time, customers will spot plate after plate of fluffy pancakes, eggs and bacon coming out of the kitchen, and people from all walks of life enjoying each one.
For those in the mood for an indulgent hotel breakfast, this chic Downtown restaurant inside the Adolphus Hotel offers omelets, photo-worthy avocado toast, and more breakfast classics with international flair.
Eggs, coffee, mimosas: this tiny Bishop Arts cafe has all the things you need for a good breakfast. As a bonus, it’s quite popular with the WFH crowd so bring your laptop along for a delicious working meal. The egg and bagel sandwiches are a great handheld order.
This cafe from down under landed in Bishop Arts with a fabulous breakfast service. Stop in for smoked salmon lox Benedict, or try the brioche French toast with seasonal fruits.
