Botté Chai Bar
Craving something a little bit different? Look no further then Botté Chai Bar. Botté is a tea house whose kitchen is inspired by Persian culinary traditions. Enjoy bottomless Persian brewed tea or kick things up a bit with the Turkish coffee. My favourite thing that I have tried off their brunch menu (so far) is the dill feta omelet. I am drooling just thinking of it!
OEB Breakfast Co.
Now, you probably know that OEB is a top spot for brunch in Saskatoon - the wait times for a table can be upwards of a couple hours. So, if you are going to brunch on the weekend you want to get here early! Enjoy mimosa flights, a wide range of breakfast poutine and bagel options and a gorgeous view of the Victoria Bridge.

Living Sky Café is downtown’s perfect spot for the busy person on the go! Swing by their market and grab a coffee and a kolach or escape the hustle and bustle for a little while in their cozy restaurant.

For a classic brunch experience visit the Park Café! They have all the traditional breakfast options you crave plus the best fruit cup in town! The walls of this old school diner are decorated with black and white photos of the areas past! It is a true throwback moment, and one of YXE's famed brunch spots.
Hearth
Hearth is in the Remai Modern and serves a beautiful brunch! Try a hash, served in a beautiful cast iron pan, a traditonal breakfast or a flatbread with cured trout! Picture yourself on a rainy Sunday, treating yourself to an amazing brunch with a view of the river, sipping a warm coffee, then strolling through the Remai Modern. Honestly, to me it sounds like a dream!
