Easter Brunch in Annapolis

If your Easter plans involve mimosas, something sweet and maybe not cooking for a crowd, you are in luck. Annapolis restaurants are doing what they do best this weekend: serving up big brunch spreads.

Whether you are in it for the buffet, the unique brunch dishes, or the Bloody Mary bar, here is where to go.

*As of Wednesday evening, April 1, these restaurants still had plenty of reservations open.*

Julep Kitchen & Bar

Show up hungry if you’re heading to Julep. Brunch runs from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., with the full menu available until 9 p.m.

Go for the Hangover Cure Omelet. Stay for a mimosa tower. Or start with the mimosa tower. I’m not judging.

Miss Shirley’s Cafe

No reservations, no problem. Just be ready to wait a bit. Open from 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., Miss Shirley’s remains one of the most popular brunch spots for a reason.

If you know, you know. If you do not, Easter is a good time to find out.

Cracker Barrel

One of the latest additions to the Annapolis restaurant scene is open from 7 a.m. to 9 p.m.

There are no reservations, but you can check wait times online and join the list before you arrive. That is a smart move for larger groups. This also may be a good spot to find a last-minute Easter gift in case the Easter Bunny was running late.

Rams Head Tavern

Brunch runs from 10 a.m. to 2 p.m., and there is plenty happening around it.

There is an Easter egg hunt at 11 a.m. for children under 10, plus a $15 bottomless Bloody Mary and mimosa bar. Reservations are encouraged, but walk ins are welcome.

Latitude 38 Waterfront

Yes, they are still open, even with the City Dock construction nearby. It is easy to forget, but this waterfront spot is worth the reminder.

From 10 a.m. to 7 p.m., Latitude 38 is offering an all day Easter buffet priced at $54.95 for adults and $19.95 for kids ages 6 to 12. Expect carving stations, seafood, brunch classics and a full dessert spread, all with views of Ego Alley.
