Some people think breakfast is the best meal of the day while others prefer lunch. Well, I'm here to tell you that brunch has its own special place in my stomach.
With that in mind, here are some of my favorite places and dishes, including spots that serve yummy mimosas and Bloody Marys, for brunch in Hendricks County, Indiana.

Boulder Creek's Sunday brunch menu boasts both sweet and savory breakfast options. Entrees include omelets (American or vegetarian), eggs and loaded hash browns, steak and eggs, French toast and pancakes (plain or chocolate chip).
A la carte breakfast sides (such as applewood smoked bacon and sausage links) are also available. The perfect compliment to Boulder Creek's brunch is a mimosa or Bloody Mary from the bar.
