Ketch Grill & Taps - Point Loma brunch tips
Weekend brunch is only from 10:00am-3:00pm: brunch is served Saturdays and Sundays only, and the kitchen transitions sharply to the lunch menu after 3:00pm, so plan your timing if you’re eyeing breakfast-style plates.
Grab a patio table for harbor views and ocean air: the outdoor seating area looks directly over the marina and is ideal on a sunny morning with plenty of umbrellas, heat lamps, and dog-friendly tables.
Start with the seafood omelet or chilaquiles verdes: the seafood omelet packs shrimp, crab, and chipotle cheese sauce, while the chilaquiles verdes come topped with chicken or steak and are among the most satisfying items on the brunch menu.
The shrimp avocado toast is more than just a trend: it’s built on thick squaw bread with greens, cucumber, egg, tomato, and chilled shrimp, giving it a light, refreshing bite that balances the heavier dishes.
The beer cheese pretzel is a solid appetizer to share: sea salt pretzels with warm beer cheese dip are a local favorite app and great to split with a group.
Parking is easy—use the public lot across the street: while there’s no private lot, the large paid parking lot directly across Shelter Island Drive usually has open spaces, especially before 11:00am.
Sip a spicy margarita or craft brew with your brunch: the spicy pineapple margarita and house-brewed Ketch IPAs are perfect beverage pairings for both seafood and comfort food dishes.
Reservations are recommended for waterfront seating: while walk-ins are accepted, weekend patio seats fill quickly. Book ahead if you want a front-row view of the boats and harbor.

CONTRIBUTOR
Weekend brunch at Ketch Grill & Taps is a study in laid-back coastal dining. The marina-facing patio draws a mix of regulars and visitors, often still lingering with another round of spicy margaritas or micheladas while fishing boats glide past in the background. It's a place that leans into its location: nautical, casual, and scenic without trying too hard. The menu covers plenty of ground. The chilaquiles verdes offer a nice hit of tomatillo brightness and a choice of chicken or skirt steak that makes the dish feel more composed than most. The shrimp avocado toast is layered and fresh, finished with a citrus-dressed arugula salad that adds texture and lift. If you’re leaning classic, the French toast and croissant breakfast sandwich check the boxes. The seafood omelet, filled with shrimp, crab, and spinach, is one of the few places where the kitchen’s harbor access shines through. For groups, the pretzels with beer cheese or the buffalo cauliflower make for easy starters. Service can fluctuate with the crowd but generally remains attentive. The view, meanwhile, is consistent—the kind of low-drama, high-reward backdrop that makes brunch feel like a proper break from the week. If you’re here for eggs and ocean air, Ketch delivers exactly what it promises.
