Sounds right for suburbanites.
Does any bar in the city not have a “weekend brunch” now?
My only complaint: we need more places like The Heights that start breakfast/brunch earlier. I know 11 or 12 is the traditional start time for brunch, but sometimes it’s nice to wake up and just go eat, rather than having a pre-brunch snack and waiting until noon for a meal.
Regardless, that’s a terrific-looking menu, and I’ll definitely check ‘em out.
Not in Columbia Heights, but Eatonville at 14th and V starts their brunch at 9am, I think. Cashion’s and Mintwood in Adams Morgan both start at 10:30am.
Here, here. Seriously, some people have well behaved kids who are up at 6. Starting brunch at 11AM, might as well call it lunch. I was really hoping to check this place out (hello, bacon date jam, I’d divorce my spouse just to marry you) but I want to eat it earlier. Since they are located in a neighborhood jammed with young families hopefully they will try earlier hours…
the lateness is actually partly why it’s called brunch.
in other words, a place you can have breakfast.
Agreeed! Both on the menu and the need for an earlier brunch. I get up early to walk the dog so to wait until 11 or noon to eat breakfast…
I really liked KBC the time I went. I pretty much had everything and it was all good with the exception of the bbq chicken, which tasted burnt.
I do wish they had a “all u can” drinking option for brunch… hint hint. $8 bloodies won’t make it a regular brunch spot for me.
Ate there on Wed night, and was pleasantly surprised. The portions were generous, the meats were very tasty, and it all was fairly affordable considering I got a lunch out of the leftovers the next day.
The chicken has a cocoa rub, which is probably why it tastes burnt to you – it’s a unique bitter taste. That said, it was the least favorite of the 4 meats we tried.
Thanks for the feedback on the chicken, guys. We are actually working to change it right now. As for the bloody marys, we also offer a regular $5 option and $4 mimosas. The KBC bloody is just a special one with a whole lot of other ingredients in it and a heck of a lot of flavor.
Hopefully we’ll see ya this weekend!
**Update**
Chocolate BBQ chicken has been nixed. We’re using our sweet bbq sauce with sautee’d onions & chopped andouille sausage. We know people really liked the Chocolate so maybe if anyone asks Trent might share the recipe…. might.
As for the bloodies we’ve been experimenting with the recipe as well. Carrie created her “Bloody Mud Mix” today (as tasty as that sounds) and we’ll be adding that to 100% tomato juice. She spent a good long time making a batch today on her day off (about 2 or 3 hours) so I hope you come by to try it out. We’ll have a regular option (not sure how much yet) and a House Infused Vodka option for $8. The Vodka was infused with Garlic, Green Peppers & Basil and has been infusing on the bar’s top shelf for about a week now…. and I’d love to do and ‘all you can drink’ option. Hell, I love going to Wonderland, too! …but we’re a very small spot and I don’t have enough room in my storage to keep that kind of inventory. Climbing over the PBR to get to the dinner napkins is enough of a pain already.
So expensive; so sick of it.
Agreed, it’s not cheap, but I’d rather pay a little more for a decent meal if I’m going out for brunch than end up paying for someone to cook me crap.
And I’m not being unsympathetic; I’ve been broke and bitter that I can’t afford brunch in DC before. But then we did did the old school trick: buy a dozen bagels from So’s Your Mom, pick up a few cartons of OJ, and invite 3 friends to come over with a bottle of champagne for mimosas and bagels on your roofdeck. Cheap and fun.
Really? I don’t think a $7-11 breakfast is that bad. Restaurants have to make money too! Sheesh. Don’t go to brunch at Lincoln, you’d have a coronary.
Expensive? I was think the complete opposite. Not sure how the food is, but seems incredibly inexpensive to me.
If it were any cheaper, they’d be paying you to come eat there. Good grief.
I tried KBC’s brunch during their soft opening, my third trip to eat there overall. I definitely recommend the Johnny Cakes, Veg n Egg, and their biscuits. The Stuffed French Toast looked delicious. We didn’t really taste the bacon in the jam, although the date flavor was great; the B&G was good but very, very heavy; and none of us thought our KBC bloody mary was good enough to finish…the infusion in the vodka was too overwhelming (the Derby’s bloodies are head and shoulders better). Overall, I think its great to have another option in the neighborhood, but I’ve found their food to be either lacking or overpriced for what you get.
+1 on having more early morning weekend breakfast spots.
Great food, terrific service at a very reasonable price. What is not to like? I’ll take some more of that.
