The Best Weekend Brunch Vibes in Charlotte
By: Legion Brewing Company
A Curated Brunch Menu, Craft Beer, and Community
If you’re searching for the best brunch in Charlotte, or simply typing “food near me” into your phone, you’ve found it. At Legion Brewing, brunch is more than just a weekend tradition — it’s a reason to slow down, gather your friends, and savor a Charlotte morning done right. Both locations offer menus with gluten-free and vegetarian-friendly options, so everyone can enjoy. From hearty breakfast classics to lighter brunch bites, every plate is made fresh in our kitchens with locally sourced ingredients and cooked over our wood-fired grills. You can join us for weekend brunch at:

What’s Cooking for Brunch in Charlotte
At Legion Brewing, brunch isn’t just a meal — it’s a flavor forward experience rooted in seasonal ingredients and the craftsmanship you know us for. Our culinary team keeps the menu fresh by leaning into what’s in season and using as many local purveyors as possible, so every plate delivers both quality and taste.
We even bring our signature wood-fired cooking style to brunch. Think perfectly seared wood-grilled steak paired with fresh eggs, or smoky pork belly that melts in your mouth over creamy stone ground grits. Guests also rave about the bold flavors in our Steak Huevos Ranchero Breakfast Bowl, the fresh, colorful Breakfast Veg Bowl, and the rich Brisket Hash & Eggs. For something on the sweeter side, our fluffy pancakes come topped with a decadent toasted pecan butter, while our Homemade Biscuits & Other Tasty Things are the kind of Southern comfort you’ll keep coming back for. And if you’re craving something vibrant and modern, our Better Than Avocado Toast is fresh, flavorful, and uniquely Legion.
Want a fresh take on a hearty meal? Pair any of our rich, savory dishes with a crisp, refreshing Mimosa or one of our brunch cocktail specials. And keep an eye out — a new brunch menu is coming soon, with even more seasonal flavors to explore.
Brunch Drinks Worth Waking Up For
At Legion Brewing, good drinks are just as important as good food and our brunch menu delivers both. South Park guests can kick off the morning with fresh brewed craft latte, perfect for early risers who want their brunch with a warm, rich start. Beers are always a staple here, with your favorite year-round pours and new seasonal releases like Carolina Feather pouring fresh at both locations.
For something lighter and full of summer flavor, our Summer Spritz lineup is the ultimate patio companion. Each one is crafted with bold, botanical notes — think mixed berry, cucumber, rosemary, limoncello, and the ever-popular Aperol. Or, keep it classic with a crisp mimosa, a Sunrise BeerMosa, or a Mimosa Flight so you can try a little bit of everything.
No matter your choice, our drinks are designed to pair perfectly with brunch favorites, making us one of the go-to restaurants near you for weekend food and drinks done right.
Pet-Friendly Patio Pitstop
If you’re searching for pet-friendly restaurants near me in Charlotte, Legion Brewing’s patios are some of the best spots in town to kick back with your crew — pups included. At South Park, our shaded patio with oversized umbrellas offers a comfortable escape, paired with an urban, upscale view of the neighborhood. It’s the perfect place to grab brunch after a stroll along The Loop CLT, which passes right through our area.
At Trolley Barn, our covered patio keeps things cool in the summer and cozy in the cooler months, all while giving you a front-row seat to the energy of Charlotte’s Rail Trail. This lively stretch is always buzzing with locals, visitors, and plenty of four-legged friends making their way past. We’ve always got fresh water for our Legion pups, and we love seeing your furry brunch companions featured on Instagram — tag us so we can share the moment. Whether you’re coming from a morning walk or heading out for an afternoon adventure, our patios make the perfect pit stop for food, drinks, and tail wags.
Whether you found us by searching “brunch in Charlotte” or “restaurants near me” or came for an afternoon craft beer, we’ll make sure you leave happy and full. At Legion Brewing, we cook good food for you and your people to enjoy — weekend after weekend.
