Booze and brunch is a combo we can all get behind, and this weekend, it's set to be the star of the show as Welcome to Thornbury hosts Melbourne's first ever mimosa and brunch 'festival' (otherwise known simply as 'brunch', but sure).
Kicking off at 11am on Sunday, July 30, this event is worth dragging your weekend butt out of bed for, featuring a tight curation of brunchtime goodness that'll put your usual smashed avo and latte to shame.
In the culinary corner, expect a one-off brunch-style bun creation from Mr Burger, waffles from Let's Waffle 'n' Shake, and a punchy Indian-inspired feed from Curry Up Now, alongside morning treats from favourites like Brunetti's, Levain Doughnuts and Gorilla Grill.
Of course, the booze situation will also be on-theme, for anyone keen to dabble in some classy day drinking. Liquid sustenance comes in the form of a range of different flavoured mimosas, espresso martinis, and, if you want to go hard, bourbon-infused iced tea jugs. Or, for a little extra help waking up, double down with the Morning Glory Special, an all-out $20 espresso martini and mimosa combo. Just don't make any important afternoon plans.
