Who wouldn’t want to take enjoy vibrant show while sipping mimosas and working on a dish of pancakes? We can’t think of a better way to kickstart a Saturday or Sunday. If you’re looking for a **brunch** experience that you won’t soon forget, have a look at the options below. Even if you’re not keen on waking up early over the weekends, brunch at Lips will certainly convince you to change your ways. In addition to unlimited cocktails — Bloody Mary’s, mimosas, champagne — Lips serves up a “Dragalicious” theme on Saturdays and Broadway-inspired show on Sunday, both of which are equally worthy of setting the alarm.
