Brunch List:
I highly recommend making reservations for Easter Brunch around San Luis Obispo County. Sometimes the crowd can get overwhelming or they will turn away walk-ins.
Every year, Madonna Inn serves an Easter Brunch Buffet. They might not post the menu offered for Easter until it gets closer but you can view their current menu on the Madonna Inn website.
Every Sunday, including Easter Sunday, Lido Restaurant at Dolphin Bay Resort & Spa serves a Champagne brunch menu. You can view their special Easter offering as it gets closer to the holiday. However, you can view their current menu from the Lido website.
The Marisol Restaurant at Cliffs Hotel & Spa in Shell Beach always host a very eventful Easter Brunch event. You can view their current menu offering on the Cliffs Hotel & Spa website.
In Paso Robles, the Cello Ristorante & Bar located inside of the Allegretto Vineyard Resort serves a special Easter menu. You can view the Cello Ristorante & Bar menu on their website to see their current offerings.
