Best Brunch Long BeachĀ
The Bungalow Kitchen
When the typical becomes familiar, it is likely time for a change. We were over the usual bottomless mimosas and blaring house music, so The Bungalow Kitchen by Michael Mina felt refreshing. Located at 2ND & PCH, this brunch spot delivers casual sophisticationājust what you’d expect from a Brent Bolthouse property. The space feels more like a trendy penthouse than a restaurant, filled with curated furniture and stories told through art.
The menu is a love letter to brunch, filled with bold, thoughtful takes on the classics. Tokyo Hot Chicken & Matcha Waffles replaced the standard combo, and French toast came topped with pistachio praline and lemon curd. For dessert, the Meyer Lemon CrĆŖpe Cake was so beautifully layered, we almost felt guilty digging in. Next time you brunch, picture yourself here: cocktail in hand, Velvet Underground playing, oysters on ice, and bay views beyond.

For those who prefer a plant-based diet, Seabirds Kitchen is the perfect place to get your vegan brunch fix. Following a true artisan approach, Seabirds makes an effort to keep everything as fresh as possible by making all of their sauces and condiments from scratch!
