Go Big...or Go Bigger is the theme at Bat 17, a college-friendly restaurant at 1709 Benson. They are serving up something you don't see very often on a brunch menu - Bat 17’s famous Balawat, a giant breakfast sandwich that comes in four varieties and is served on Bennison’s Bakery fresh sourdough bread. Though the breakfast sandwiches are certainly the way to go, Bat 17 also serves up sweet French toast dishes, savory corned beef hash and four kinds of flapjacks.
Breakfast tacos? Check. Avocado toast? Check. Apple-cinnamon Frech toast? Check. Chicken and waffles? Check. Spend your weekend brunch with friends and family at Tapville, where you can enjoy delicious brunch menu items and a variety of craft libations, wine and cocktails.
