Who’s got the best summer weekend breakfast in Butte

We're entering the dog days of summer, if we aren't there already.  Summer weekends can now more or less be counted on a single hand and the last thing anyone wants to do is get stuck in the kitchen.  Yet a good breakfast, especially on the weekend, is one o life's simple pleasures.  Hitting one of our great local restaurants is always a good idea and here are a couple of the places that we think stand out.

HANGIN 5 FAMILY RESTAURANT

The Hangin 5 is definitely Butte's hot spot for breakfast and with good reason.  Their food is fresh and their breakfast menu is huge.  They are known for their omelets which can go from 2 egg to their 5 egg monsters and you can never go wrong with an order of pancakes.

M&M

The sign returned before St. Patrick's Day and the address has moved up the street by a couple of digits but the breakfasts at the M&M remain as popular as ever.  Popular staples like the Garbage Omelet have never changed but the crew often experiments with unique dishes for a weekend breakfast.

COPPER PLATE

Relatively new to the Butte restaurant scene, the Copper Plate on Galena is becoming known for their international flair, their breakfasts are delicious and if you're looking for Eggs Benedict, this is the place to go.

COPPER CITY DINER

The Copper City Diner is the place for big portions at very reasonable prices.  If you don't believe me, try their chicken fried steak and eggs.  Delicious and huge.

OASIS

The Oasis on Amherst has got cool decor along with fantastic breakfasts. Looking for a hearty breakfast skillet?  The Oasis is your place.
