Backstreet Cafe

Backstreet Cafe is a longtime favorite known for its inviting atmosphere, creative seasonal dishes, and one of Houston’s best patios. Set in a charming 1930s house, the restaurant offers an intimate yet lively setting, perfect for everything from weekend brunch to celebratory dinners. Under the direction of James Beard Award-winning chef Hugo Ortega, the menu features thoughtfully prepared dishes like duck confit empanadas, shrimp and grits, and pecan-crusted chicken. A well-curated wine list and handcrafted cocktails complete the experience.

Hungry's

Hungry’s has been a neighborhood favorite in Rice Village since 1975, serving up fresh, satisfying comfort food in a laid-back setting. The menu is a mix of American and Mediterranean flavors, with everything from burgers and wood-fired pizzas to lighter options like fresh salads and hummus plates. Brunch is a big draw, with classics like fluffy pancakes and eggs Benedict, best enjoyed on the spacious patio.

Coco Crepes & Coffee

Coco Crepes & Coffee brings a touch of European charm to Houston’s café scene, serving up delicate, made-to-order crêpes alongside artisan coffee and tea. Whether you're craving something sweet—like a Nutella and strawberry crêpe—or a savory option filled with eggs, cheese, and veggies, there’s plenty to choose from. Can’t decide? Create your own custom combination.

The Breakfast Klub

Few places capture Houston’s love for comfort food quite like The Breakfast Klub. This laid-back eatery draws a daily crowd for its legendary wings and waffles, along with Southern staples like catfish and grits. The line out the door is practically a tradition, but regulars will tell you the wait is part of the experience—and always worth it. Inside, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee and crispy fried chicken fills the air, while friendly staff keep the lively atmosphere buzzing.
