The Best Brunch Spots In Midtown Little Rock

Little Rock, Arkansas is definitely not among the largest cities in the US, but it does offer the life of one. Home to many restaurants, bars, places for entertainment and historical sights, Little Rock hides in its neighborhoods priceless gems with good food, lovely ambiance and friendly staff. Here are the best brunch spots in town.

The Root Cafe

Homemade is not really homemade unless it grows in the backyard. The Root Café in downtown Little Rock is the best place to visit because all of their products are Arkansas-grown. The café is unique with its rich choice of local meals, workshops, and entertaining contests, such as the hot pepper eating and the beard growing contests. Built to specifically sustain Arkansas’ economy and farms and Little Rock’s community, the café offers a wide variety of choices for all your breakfast and lunch needs. The scrumptious shiitake Benny and the spicy banh mi are certainly to die for.
