Let there be Brunch!

Weekends are for brunch. We all know that. Bargello does brunch in their own Mediteranian style that you can enjoy with a mimosa on their beautiful patio (great for people-watching). Start off with fresh Avocado Toast or something sweeter with their Doughnut Holes tossed in an orange glaze and topped with toasted almonds. They even have truffle fries to go with your Banana Foster brioche french toast! Grab a speciality cocktail or keep it classic with a house Bloody Mary on Saturdays and Sundays from 10am-3pm. 

This show is a must-see for any music lover, so here is the early notice to get your tickets for Morgan Geer,  AKA Drunken Prayer, international songwriting phenomenon! On May 16th The Grey Eagle hosts this limited seating patio show that starts at 4 pm. Doors open at 4 pm and tickets are $10.
