Girard on Girard Now Serves Breakfast and Brunch Only

Just in time for their first anniversary, Fishtown BYOB Girard on Girard will be nixing their dinner service and operating instead as a bruncherie. Starting Dec. 1, they will open daily at 7:00 a.m. and serve fresh-brewed coffee, a variety of breakfast sandwiches, house-made pastries and seasonal brunch specials through 3:00 p.m. The occasional popup dinner will happen, but the main focus will be on brunch and breakfast moving forward.

Chef/owner Brian Oliveira attributed the change to responding to neighborhood feedback. "We listened to what the neighborhood told us they wanted, which was a more casual place where they could relax, grab a coffee, and enjoy our popular brunch menu all week long."

The expanded brunch menu includes: an ancient grain breakfast bowl with sautéed apples, cranberries, candied pecans, goat cheese and herbs; house-made yogurt; baked mac and cheese, French toast with orange ginger sauce and maple-hazelnut butter; avocado toast with house-made mascarpone cheese, grapefruit, and chipotle honey; quiche of the day; and warm buttermilk biscuits. And a daily $5 breakfast special of two eggs, potatoes, toast and coffee, will available between 7:00 a.m. and 9:00 a.m.

A re-opening celebration will be held on December 1 at 7:00 a.m. Free coffee and bite-sized samples from the new menu will be served.

Girard on Girard’s new hours will be Tuesday through Friday from 7:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m., and Saturday and Sunday from 9:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. While the menus and hours have changed, the restaurant says it's committed to its no-tipping policy, which will remain in effect.
