Chambers Eat + Drink
We’ve been singing the praises of this poolside restaurant inside the groovy Phoenix Hotel all summer long, and since chef Trevor Ogden inaugurated brunch, it earns a top spot in this day-drinking roundup. Where else can you start your day on the deep end? Breakfast for champions of the liquid variety include bloody marys and a caffeinated Earl Grey-infused gin. And, give your taste buds a umami wake-up call with the Eggs Royale: two sous-vide poached eggs, cold-smoked salmon, mandarin hollandaise, caviar, and chives. It’s the mother of all egg dishes.

Chambers Eat + Drink, 601 Eddy Street (between Larkin and Polk streets); 415-829-2316.
