OT Ann Arbor breakfast joints

Submitted by 2Blue4You on

Slow day for the CC so we need something to keep our minds off the obvious until the 28th.

I went to breakfast yesterday at an AA diner and it was solid as are most all diner/greasy spoon type places that offer breakfast all day, but not over the top, plan my Saturday/Sunday morning around.  I know the typical Angelo's, Weber's Brunch, Northside, and Fleetwood offer solid slightly different takes on the breakfast and are pretty awesome in their own right.

My question to the board is what weekend breakfast options to you HIGHLY recommend for takeout?  I usually get up first in my house and want to grab coffee and bring home something amazing b/c Ann Arbor is a foodie paradise.  My only current go to is Washtenaw Dairy donuts.

What  peaked this was my brother lives in AZ and we get breakfast burritos every breakfast we are out there and bring them home.  The perfect balance of potatoes, eggs, cheese, meat of choice and red/green sauce.  Nothing I have had here has been on that same level.  Thanks.

I am of the camp that believes angelos is a bit overrated. Still a great ann arbor tradition, but afternoon delight is way better IMO. Afternoon delights' raisin toast is the best food in all of Ann Arbor in my opinion. So good.

Broken Egg is my go-to breakfast place. Aut Bar up in Kerrytown also has great brunch in the summertime.

But you're right, OP, there's nothing like a southwest breakfast burrito! (I lived in NM for a summer...so many breakfast burritos...)

No mention of Nick's Original House of Pancakes? (near Meijer)

Pancakes are fine there, but I always get Dublin Bennies (eggs benedict with corned beef instead of canadian bacon).

Mark's Coney Island on Plymouth is solid for eggs, bacon etc

I'm not sure their hours but the "20/20" cafe at the Kellogg eye center has great sandwiches.
