Holy Brunch is On the Move in Westport

Holy Brunch, known for its TikTok-famous brunch menu, is expanding to a familiar (and larger) space in Westport.

• On the Move: Owner Drue Stewart initially launched Holy Brunch as a food truck during the pandemic, before moving into a small space at 204 Westport Road in 2024. Now, Holy Brunch wil take over the former Westport Ale House space at 4128 Broadway later this summer.

• Brunch is Trending: The new space will feature a family-friendly brunch bar, a high-end VIP all-you-can-eat brunch space downstairs, and a rooftop. The menu will continue to feature ridiculous, yet delicious brunch items like Fruity Pebbles French Toast Sandwiches, Oreo Pancakes, and Fireball Smash Burgers.
