The Best Breakfasts and Brunches in Tbilisi
Generally speaking, many Georgians don’t eat breakfast at all, opting for caffeine instead. A typical Georgian breakfast includes tea or coffee with a slice of bread with a spread of butter or eggs or oat porridge for those who are trying to stay in shape or shifting to healthy eating. As there’s no proper breakfast custom in the country, Tbilisi doesn’t boast many spots for breakfast lovers, and cafés often open up late; however, be sure to check out the following places.
1. Entrée
Cafe, Coffee Shop, Pastelaria, Coffee, Georgian, French, Pastries
For early birds and proper breakfast lovers, local French bakery and coffee shop chain Entrée offers a couple of varieties to jump-start your day. If you are in a hurry, you can grab a coffee and any pastry for a very reasonable price. If you’d like to sit down, then grab your favorite book or newspaper and enjoy your morning meal.
2. Coffeesta
Cafe, Coffee, Georgian
Similar to Entrée, Coffeesta is another local coffee shop chain that offers simple breakfast options for those who like to have breakfast early. You can take a coffee with a muffin, cookies or a croissant for 5 GEL ($2).
3. Fabrika
Cafe, Pastry Shop, Bar, Cocktail Bar, European, Pastries
5. Brotmeister

And if those options don’t call out to you, Brotmeister also offers porridge, cheese patties, a muffin with bacon or quinoa porridge.
