It is one of the best restaurants I have ever been in Durham. The french toast , beignets , the creme brûlée and the salted caramel ice cream ...all were delicious. Can’t wait to go back.

Rue cler is always a great option for brunch . The beignets are amazing. I had the quiche with cheese and spinach today which was one of the best quiches I have ever had.

Their brunch is fantastic. Affordable, and the taste by far exceeds the cost. Try the French Toast with fresh fruit , or the Omelet Du Jour .

I recommend the croque monsieur or madame if you want a special sandwich . Also, try the niçoise salad .

Try the Crepe du Jour - Light and sweet, better as a dessert or side than an entre .
