Top 5 Must-Try Brunch Dishes in Sherman, TX
A local's take on Eggsquisite Cafe and what you absolutely need to order
When I first moved to the Sherman area, one of the first things I went looking for was a solid breakfast spot — not just somewhere to grab eggs, but a place that feels like a little weekend ritual. After trying a few places around town, someone finally told me, “You’ve gotta go to Eggsquisite.”
And they were right.
I’ve now been to Eggsquisite Cafe more times than I can count — birthdays, lazy Sundays, midweek reset breakfasts, you name it. The food is always fresh, the team is genuinely kind, and I’ve yet to order something I didn’t like. But if you’re new here, or just trying to decide what to get next time you go, here are the five dishes I always recommend to people first:
1. The Meat Lover’s Skillet
If you're starving (or just feel like you need something that’ll stick with you all day), this skillet is it. It comes out sizzling, piled with crispy potatoes, bacon, sausage, ham, and eggs however you like. It’s savory and satisfying in that no-nonsense, diner-style way — but with way better seasoning. It’s also what my dad orders every single time.
2. Banana Split French Toast
This one feels like dessert, but I promise it still counts as brunch. It’s thick slices of French toast layered with bananas, strawberries, whipped cream, and chocolate drizzle. It looks like something out of a Pinterest board and somehow tastes even better. Every time I’ve ordered it, someone at the table has had “menu regret.”
3. Crepes with Berries and Cream
Lighter than the other dishes but still super satisfying, especially if you're not in the mood for something too heavy. The crepes are soft and warm, and the filling is that perfect balance of sweet and fresh. They’re kind of my go-to when I want to feel a little fancy without actually trying.
4. The Eggs Benedict (I like the salmon one)
I didn’t expect to love this as much as I do, but now it’s a staple for me. The hollandaise is rich and smooth, and the eggs are always perfectly poached. I switch between the classic ham and the salmon depending on my mood — but either way, this is one of the most consistent dishes on the menu.
5. Any of the Omelets
Honestly, it’s hard to go wrong with an omelet here. They’re huge, cooked well, and totally customizable. My husband loves the Western, but I usually build my own with spinach, tomatoes, cheddar, and sausage. It’s one of those simple things that they just do right.
Also worth mentioning: the coffee
Not watered down, not too bitter — just good, hot coffee that actually wakes you up. Their frappes are also way better than most places I’ve tried, and I’m obsessed with the fresh-squeezed OJ when I’m in a citrus mood.
Final thoughts?
If you're searching for a new breakfast spot in Sherman, or you're just tired of the usual chain places, this one is worth making part of your routine. The food’s good, the people are even better, and there’s just something about it that feels like home.
Hope this helps you figure out what to order. Or at least convinces you to bring a friend and try more than one thing.
Just save me a booth if you go on Sunday — that place fills up fast.
