Brunch spot Crumbs Restaurant launches in Pleasant Hill, garners enormous east bay excitement
Pleasant Hill, California, welcomed a highly anticipated brunch spot on its Downtown street. Crumbs, long-renowned for pancakes, brunch, and breakfast items, as well as a vibrant and colorful interior, opened for business in the former Old Pancake House building on Gregory Lane.
For months, the building lay vacant, until word of a new restaurant took hold. In early spring, curious guests noticed covered windows hinting at the forthcoming eatery.
Crumbs' new location is comparatively larger, retaining the original's delightful ambiance. The menu expands beyond its Danville counterpart with options like avocado toast, chicken and waffles, huevos rancheros, crepes, and more.
Breakfast connoisseurs will also find an assortment of omelets, scrambles, and egg dishes, along with pancakes and brunch items like burritos. Vegetarian, vegan, and keto options are available, catering to various dietary needs.
While the exterior is pet-friendly, leashed dogs are welcome to join diners in the outdoor seating area. Unfortunately, customers reported two-hour waits over the holiday weekend, prompting nearby restaurant Royale to garner attention.
Like many trendy brunch establishments in the Bay Area, Crumbs' prices are somewhat steep, averaging $15-$25 per entree. The eatery also boasts a full bar with a variety of breakfast drinks.
Upon a brief visit, the interior appeared newly constructed and elegant. On-site reviews praise the food and service. However, visitors are warned to prepare for wait times during peak brunch hours.
Crumbs is situated at 2059 Contra Costa Blvd, Pleasant Hill, CA 94523 (corner of Gregory). The restaurant is also accessible on their website. As 925 News continues to explore the new brunch spot, sign up for our free newsletter to receive a comprehensive review once we've tested the food.
