Where to Find The Best Outdoor Brunch in Miami

Miami’s brunch scene is as diverse as the city itself, offering everything from trendy spots to cozy, hidden gems. When the weather’s perfect, nothing beats enjoying your meal al fresco. Whether you’re in the mood for a laid-back South Beach vibe or a chic urban setting, these five outdoor brunch spots in Miami deliver both flavor and atmosphere.

Barsecco

Located in the heart of Miami’s financial district, Barsecco in Brickell blends a sleek, modern design with a lush, outdoor patio that’s perfect for weekend brunching. Barsecco’s brunch menu offers a fun mix of savory and sweet, with options like Mexi-Cali avocado toast, pistachio cannoli French toast, and barbacoa chilaquiles. Pair your meal with one of their craft cocktails, like a lychee martini or a refreshing mimosa (pro tip: opt for unlimited for $35), and you’re set for a delightful brunch experience in the city.

El Turco

El Turco brings the flavors of Turkey to Miami, serving up a unique brunch experience in the charming Buena Vista neighborhood. The outdoor seating area is cozy and welcoming, surrounded by greenery and local artisans that are a nice break from the usual city sights. Their menu features traditional Turkish dishes like menemen (shakshuka) and simit (think bagel sandwiches), as well as mezes, casseroles, and adult beverages galore. Brunch at El Turco is a delightful journey through Mediterranean flavors in a serene setting like no other in the area.

The Lobster Shack

The Lobster Shack in South Beach offers a delectable brunch experience for seafood lovers in a relaxed, casual setting. The outdoor seating area provides a comfortable atmosphere to enjoy Miami’s warm weather while indulging in their flavorful menu, which focuses on – you guessed it – lobster. Known mainly for their fresh and delicious lobster rolls, The Lobster Shack offers different variations on the classic dish. You can enjoy it in a traditional way, like warm or chilled, or you can get a little more adventurous with toppings – some of which pack a kick. 

There’s plenty of other seafood, too, so don’t limit yourself; non-lobster highlights include tuna tacos, steamed clams, and snow crab. With its refreshing vibe and mouth-watering offerings, The Lobster Shack is the perfect spot to enjoy a leisurely brunch with friends or family in the heart of South Beach (or in South of Fifth).

Pastis

Pastis is the place to be if you’re in the mood for a French-inspired brunch with a side of Miami’s artsy vibe. The outdoor terrace makes you feel like you’re not in the 305 anymore, while still feeling familiar; it’s a stylish spot to enjoy your meal. Their brunch menu is mostly classic and refined, featuring dishes like eggs benedict, quiche lorraine, and a selection of fresh pastries such as croissants and pain au chocolat. Whether you’re sipping on a cappuccino or a glass of champagne, Pastis’s chic atmosphere makes for an unforgettable brunch experience in Wynwood.

Pastis is located at 380 NW 26th St, Miami, FL 33127. For more information, visit their official website

Sadelle’s

Sadelle’s in Coconut Grove is a brunch destination that combines classic New York vibes with Miami flair. The outdoor seating area is spacious, providing ample room for large parties. In fact, Sadelle’s is best enjoyed in a group as the menu is so huge; sharing is caring. Known for their bagels, Sadelle’s cooks up a menu that’s both comforting and indulgent, with options like a classic egg sandwich, salmon benedict, and their signature Sadelle’s Tower — an enormous platter of bagels, fish, and all the fixings. It’s not cheap, but it’s damn good. 

Sadelle’s is located at 3321 Mary St, Miami, FL 33133. For more information, visit their official website
