Townhouse Brunch Brings Creative Morning Offerings To Colleyville.

With its elegant environment and comprehensive menu, Townhouse Brunch is raising the stakes for the local brunch game. After opening in Colleyville in May, the classy, casual eatery started dishing out not only staple brunch offerings but a true array of what brunch is supposed to stand for. Yes, diners will find avocado toast and mimosas. But they will also find a true encapsulation of the best of local breakfast and lunch options – served with a homey twist.
Owner Rima Sejdini says that clear vision is due in part to her family’s 40 years of experience in the industry. Rima says she was born into the business because her dad owned a variety of eateries while she was growing up. That led her and her brother to open a few other brunch options throughout the Metroplex, including Barney’s Brunch House with locations in Frisco and The Colony. Now, she’s bringing her elevated offerings to Town Center Colleyville.
“We think Colleyville deserves a brunch place that cares for their customers, and our menu definitely brings a new game to the table,” Rima says.
The hefty menu doesn’t cater toward a breakfast or a lunch crowd. Instead, it offers a true variety so guests can find an option no matter their taste or mood. Breakfast options include classics like Shrimp ’n’ Grits, cheese-infused grits, onion and pepper beurre blanc and shrimp, as well as playful plates like the Oreo Pancakes, a chocolate batter-based sweet with Oreo crumbles and cream cheese glaze. With everything from benedicts and omelets to sweet crepes and French toast, there is a plate for every person.
For those who believe brunch is not complete without a cocktail, mimosas are availabile by the pitcher. Other festive concoctions include a Manmosa – Blue Moon, vodka, and fresh-squeezed orange juice – and a Rosé Lemonade – rosé champagne and lemonade.
Their sandwiches, burgers and salads hold up to the same bar set by their breakfast items. The light Tuna Salad Croissant, topped with mixed greens and tomato, offers a refreshing, protein-packed bite while the Townhouse Burger, crowned with bacon, a fried egg, sautéed onions, mayo and cheddar cheese, comes out juicy and delicious.
Kids also can choose between the two routes by diving into sweets like the Kids Cakes, a teddy bear pancake topped with powdered sugar, chocolate sauce and accompanied by one egg and two pieces of bacon or one sausage, or the Kids Tenders, served with fries or fresh fruit. Even with chandeliers and a sleek interior color palate, it’s easy to feel comfortable.
