The Breakfast Klub
Arrive early at this Houston institution for one of the most coveted breakfast dishes in Houston - a warm, fluffy waffle sprinkled with powdered sugar and six crispy chicken wings, perfectly seasoned and juicy on the inside. At least it’s worth the wait diners endure when they don’t get there early.

Stacked Ice Cream
Good Instagram posts and the offerings at Stacked have similar qualities - they’re creative, colorful, and gets lots of likes. Bite into an ice cream sandwich made from a warm glazed donut split in half, or try crisp macarons filled with cold pressed ice-cream in flavors like jasmine milk tea or cookie butter and topped with Cinnamon Toast Crunch or Fruity Pebbles.

The Dunlavy & The Kitchen at The Dunlavy

Bebidas
This charming juice and coffee bar Bebidas serves up several variations of toast including the “Plain Jane Toast” made of bananas, almond butter, and chia seeds, and the “Clementine Toast”, with almond ricotta on challah bread topped with honey and mint. But the real star of the show is the avocado toast, a simple spread of avocado on a well-toasted slice topped with radish, sprouts, and a healthy sprinkling of sea salt and lemon.

Bosscat Kitchen & Libations
Bosscat is known for its innovative take on traditional brunch and the Fruity Pebbles french toast is no different.

Steak 48
The sight of the Cookies and Cream Popcorn Sundae alone is enough to give you diabetes, yet the risk may be worth it. A mix of vanilla bean gelato, homemade hot fudge, and cookies and cream popcorn is a clever play on traditional cookies and cream ice cream and gets served up often at this see-and-be-seen establishment. Added bonus: the Beignet Tree or Crispy Banana Split are equally Instagramable.

Tinys Milk and Cookies
Tiny Boxwood’s, Tiny No. 5 and Tiny’s Milk and Cookies knows how to capitalize on a good thing, like its renowned chocolate chip cookies, baked fresh daily. The warm, dense cookies speckled with different sized chocolate chips are pure magic. Pair with a liter glass of milk and Instagrammers have a post worthy of a Throwback Thursday to childhood.

Killen's Barbecue
Houston’s quintessential barbecue joint, Killen’s, offers a fatty, juicy slab of beef rib that must be hard to photograph when its falling off the bone, but somehow patrons manage to do it. Trek out to Pearland for this must-have goodness.
