Eater SF recently dropped its brunch guide for the East Bay — and we’re proud La Marcha Tapas Bar is on the list. Whether you love sweet, savory, or somewhere in between, this roundup celebrates spots that bring creativity, flavor, and Sunday-energy. Eater SF
In the feature, brunch at La Marcha is highlighted for weaving together our Spanish roots and brunch classics. Think: fruit-topped panqueques (pancakes), brunch cocktails like the carajillo, and hearty fare like rabos con huevos (tender oxtail with patatas bravas and eggs). If you’re in the mood for something more indulgent, there’s also a brunch-version of paella—loaded with bacon, chorizo, shrimp, and two poached eggs. It’s built for sharing, or for satisfying a brunch craving big time. Eater SF
Why This Recognition Matters
This kind of feature means a lot to us — brunch is one of those universal pleasures, whether you’re catching up with friends, easing into the day, or just treating yourself. Being called out among the best in the East Bay says people are appreciating what we’re building: a place where Spanish flavor meets brunch comfort, where authenticity meets creativity. Berkeley has always been a food-loving city, and we love standing with it.
What You’ll Find When You Visit
Here’s what we hope you’ll taste and feel:
-
Sweet moments like our panqueques with vibrant, fruit-laden toppings + a well-balanced sweet & warm breakfast vibe.
-
Bold, savory dishes like the rabos con huevos, combining rich oxtail & eggs & patatas bravas for something satisfying and memorable.
-
A brunch paella that adds Spanish tradition to morning vibes — full of bacon, chorizo, shrimp, and topped with poached eggs. Perfect for sharing (or just for you, we don’t judge).
-
Brunch cocktails (yes, carajillo and more) that let you linger, chat, and savor.
