Highland Park, MI is home to some of the best breakfast places in the state, and we have three favorites in the city that rise above the rest. Read on to discover our top picks.
1. Country Kitchen
Country Kitchen serves up American classics and traditional favorites all day long. Skillets are the perfect way to enjoy a variety of flavors, and we particularly enjoy the Cordon Bleu with Swiss and parsley as well as the Smoked Sausage Skillet with diced onions and red potatoes. If you prefer a lighter breakfast, go with the Breakfast Sampler including an egg, a bacon strip, a sausage link, hash browns, and toast to try it all.
Omelets come with your choice of a side, and we enjoy creating our own with various fillings such as bacon, diced ham, sausage, peppers, avocado, onions, mushrooms, tomatoes, and broccoli. If your ideal breakfast is heavy on the sweet factor, look no further than the Chocolate Strawberry Crepes with vanilla cream cheese or the Triple Chocolate Pancakes with Oreos and chocolate chips baked inside.
2. Walker Bros. Original Pancake House
Walker Bros. Original Pancake House earns its spot on this list thanks to the extensive menu, quality ingredients, and mouth-watering meals that you can count on. Order an oven-baked omelet such as the Asparagus Garden with Parmesan cheese or the Mediterranean with feta and Kalamata olives for a unique twist on a classic. If you like your eggs scrambled, ask for the Minced Ham and Eggs served with three buttermilk pancakes.
Benedict choices are vast, and we particularly like the Blue Crab Meat Benedict with grilled tomatoes, capers, and parsley. Don’t leave without trying one of their famous pancakes such as the Dutch Baby with lemon and powdered sugar or the Apple Cinnamon Pancake with the option to add vanilla ice cream. If pancakes aren’t your thing, treat yourself to Danish-inspired Cherry Kijafa Crepes with tart cherries simmered in wine and dusted with powdered sugar.
3. Once Upon a Bagel
Once Upon a Bagel has perfected both bagels with cream cheese as well as other breakfast meals that are sure to leave you wanting more. Take your pick from more than a dozen bagel flavors such as pumpernickel, cinnamon raisin, onion, egg, wheat, garlic, blueberry, Asiago, sesame, or pretzel. Top it off with a handcrafted cream cheese flavor ranging from sweet strawberry to savory cucumber chive.
You can’t go wrong with the Once Upon a Breakfast meal that comes with two eggs, your choice of meat, hash browns, and a bagel in any flavor. Alternatively, we also enjoy the Huevos A La Acapulco made with green peppers, chorizo, and onions. For a sweeter start to your morning, we highly recommend the Cheese Blintzes served with a side of strawberries and sour cream.
A phenomenal breakfast is a guarantee at any of these restaurants, and we’re already planning our next trip back. After you’ve enjoyed every bite, visit Bill Snethkamp CDJR for everything that your vehicle needs!
