Best brunch spots in Richmond Hill
Chillax Coffee
If you’re up for Asian fusion brunch, you’ll definitely want to pop into Chillax Coffee, located around the corner from Richmond Green.
I love the industrial vibes of the restaurant, and they even have a cool light bulb sign!
You’ll find a wide variety of brunch and lunch dishes at Chillax, with dishes like their Pork Belly Chicken Banh Mi, Thai Red Curry Clams Spaghetti, and Duck Breast Tonkotsu Ramen.
We typically go for their Eggs Benedicts (choose between smoked duck breast, chashu pork belly, smoked salmon, or Canadian bacon) or Chicken & Waffles (they’re super generous with the portions and the fried chicken is so juicy and flavourful!)
For drinks, they’ve got quite a few coffee and tea options, including their Hojicha Latte (probably my fave in the GTA) and Rosy Latte.
You can also find fun and delicious seasonal drinks like their past Strawberry Shortcake Cappuccino and current Peppermint Mocha!
I like that you can order directly through a QR code at your table, and they used to allow you to pay that way as well, but I think they’ve recently changed this!
Definitely make a reservation or add your name to the Yelp waitlist if you visit on the weekend for brunch, ’cause it gets super busy.
LOCATION: 10650 Leslie St #2, Richmond Hill, ON
Elephant Grind Coffee
Elephant Grind Coffee is another awesome brunch spot in Richmond Hill that does classic brunch dishes with a twist.
They do classic and Asian-inspired brunch, with dishes like Bulgogi Beef Eggs Benedict and Lap Cheong Hash.
Their interior is also gorgeous, with plenty of wood details and greenery!
LOCATION: 10 East Wilmot St. Unit 7, Richmond Hill, ON
Cafe Bon Bon
Cafe Bon Bon is an adorable spot in the Times Square plaza.
They serve up unique Asian fusion brunch dishes like their Curry Cheese Karaage, Soft Shell Crab Chili Linguine, and Beef Stroganoff Omurice.
They’ve got classic espresso drinks alongside more unique offerings like their Sea Salt Cream Iced Coffee and Mocha Frappé, made with coffee beans from a local roaster.
They also source their teas from Taiwan, and you can choose from drinks like their Roasted Oolong Latte to their Matcha Latte.
LOCATION: 550 Hwy 7 #90, Richmond Hill, ON
Ramona’s Kitchen
Ramona’s is a homey spot that serves up all-day breakfast.
You’ll find all kinds of hearty and drool-worthy brunch dishes, like their Schnitzel Benedict, Challah French Toast, and Brunch Burger.
They’re kinda located on the border of Richmond Hill and Thornhill!

Cora
This popular Canadian breakfast chain has locations all across the GTA, and you can find their Richmond Hill location by Yonge & Elgin Mills.
You’ll find classic breakfast dishes here, including everything from savoury crêpes to sugary pancakes.
Most of their dishes come with a generous side of fruit, which always makes it feel ~healthier~.
Fun fact: I actually used to work as a hostess at Cora’s other location in Richmond Hill, which has since shut down!
LOCATION: 10909 Yonge St, Richmond Hill, ON
Wimpy’s Diner
Wimpy’s is another awesome Canadian chain that serves up delicious diner and breakfast food.

You can find them in Richmond Hill by Bayview & Elgin Mills!

Yang’s Fine Chinese Cuisine
Can dim sum be considered brunch? I mean, we normally eat it around “brunch time”, right? I’m gonna consider it brunch.
Yang’s is my family’s fave dim sum spot in Richmond Hill, and you can find them at Bayview & Weldrick.
You’ll find all the classic dim sum dishes like Siu Mai, Chicken Feet, and Steamed Beef Tripe.
They also have a Salted Egg Yolk Bun that’s delish!
It does get super busy, so expect to wait in line if you don’t arrive early for a table.
