Our brunch menu features hearty, indulgent dishes that prove plant-based brunch can be every bit as satisfying as traditional fare.
Start your weekend on a sweet note with our fluffy pancake stacks, available with seasonal toppings and syrups. Our French toast is thick-cut and custard-dipped using our plant-based egg mixture, resulting in a crispy exterior and pillowy interior. Pair either with a fresh juice or one of our specialty brunch cocktails for the full experience.
For savory appetites, our loaded brunch plates feature hearty portions of plant-based protein, roasted vegetables, and our signature sauces. Our brunch burgers bring all the flavor of our regular burger lineup with a morning twist. And our mac and cheese — the same impossibly creamy recipe that packs our restaurant at dinner — is available for brunch because comfort food knows no time of day.
First time at The Dirty V for brunch? Try the Basic Betty burger with a side of loaded nuclear waste fries and a S'mores milkshake. It's the combination that converts skeptics into regulars. If you prefer something lighter, a savory brunch plate with a fresh juice is a great introduction to what our kitchen can do.
Bringing a group where not everyone is vegan? The Dirty V is the great equalizer. Because our entire menu is plant-based and designed to taste like the best version of comfort food, even dedicated meat-eaters enjoy our brunch. We've heard countless stories of omnivore friends who came reluctantly and left as fans. Our menu is approachable, familiar, and free of anything that tastes like compromise. Everyone orders what looks good, everyone enjoys their meal, and nobody has to negotiate dietary preferences.
One of the best moves at brunch is ending with one of our thick dairy-free milkshakes. The Cookie Monster and Strawberry Shortcake flavors are particularly popular with our brunch crowd. Or split a Death By Chocolate Cake with your table. Our desserts pair perfectly with post-brunch plans — strolling through Glenwood South, shopping nearby boutiques, or heading to one of Downtown Raleigh's parks.
