As such, there is plenty to do, including brunch.
Note: For this list, Sugar Land is defined by the area covered in this map.
Where to Brunch in Sugar Land
Jupiter Pizza & Waffle Co.
Town Square hotspot Jupiter Pizza & Waffle Co. is a popular brunch favorite.
For the table, start with “wafflettes,” mini chicken and Belgian waffle bites topped with housemade maple cream and strawberries; then dig into a lineup of sweet and savory treats.
There are omelets, French toasts, loaded pizzas, and breakfast skillets, which come packed with things like pulled pork and caramelized onions or chicken-apple sausage and country gravy—and then there are the waffles.
Get them topped simply with maple syrup and powdered sugar, or go for the gold with Oreo crumbles, strawberries and vanilla custard or maple sausage, bacon, cheese, and eggs-your-way.
Saturday 9am to 10pm; Sunday 9am to 9m.
The Roof on the Lake
Nestled across from Lake Point and overlooking Brooks Lake, guests can score panoramic views of Sugar Land and an elegant Sunday brunch at The Roof on the Lake.
Dine on shrimp, grits & crab with lobster cream sauce, Cajun fried whole red snapper, and fried chicken & waffles with bourbon syrup, alongside brunch cocktails from Bloody Marys to Bottomless Mimosas.
Sunday 11am to 4pm.
The Rouxpour
Soulful haunt The Rouxpour throws down with a Creole-inspired brunch every weekend.
Feast on pain perdu and fried chicken; Cajun omelets loaded with crawfish and jalapeño sausage, spinach, ‘shrooms, gouda cheese and Creole sauce; hangover burgers stacked with blackened shrimp, potato cake, an onion ring, cheeses and bacon, and a “Bayou sauce” drizzle.
Saturday and Sunday 11am to 2pm.
State Fare Kitchen & Bar
With a location in Sugar Land Town Square, local mini-chain State Fare Kitchen & Bar is known for its high-low gastropub fare.
At brunch, that means you can dig into chicken fried steak & eggs with biscuits and jam; XXL buttermilk griddlecakes with whipped butter and real maple syrup; and N’awlins BBQ Shrimp, Tails & Grits which is loaded with bbq shrimp, fried crawfish tails and stone-ground grits.
Saturday and Sunday 10am to 4pm.
