Frida Southwest

Frida Southwest is a show stopping spot for all things brunch, lunch, dinner and cocktails. This restaurant, beautifully crafted on the outside is just as amazing as their cuisines that are inspired by Oklahoma, Santa Fe and Northern Mexico. Enjoy their brunch on the patio, or a cocktail at the bar, there is something for everyone to fall in love with. Fun fact, this is one of Malena’s, Yay Dude CEO/ founder, favorite places of all time.

Scratch Kitchen & Cocktails

Scratch Kitchen + Cocktails is an American restaurant that takes their flavors, spirits and recipes to the next level as they are committed to making everything from scratch. They offer a full bar, an impressive wine list, dinner and brunch options. Also, couldn’t love their slogan of “we’re incredibly friendly, but will always fix you a mean plate” anymore!

Burger Punk OKC

3012 N Walker Ave, Oklahoma City, OK 73103

Burger Punk began as a food truck in 2018 and opened a spunky and bright restaurant in 2020. They serve a wide variety of specialty burgers all while engaging within a ‘punk rock’ theme within the restaurant environment. They also have an extensive whiskey menu and beer selection; and the best part is they are open late! Would be a great pick for a light night craving or a fun afternoon lunch!

Holey Rollers Donuts

3010 Paseo #101, Oklahoma City, OK 73103

Holey Rollers began as a small, yet loved, 1962 Zipper Camper Trailer food truck in 2016; through their success, it allowed them to begin serving within a store-front restaurant. They serve their sweets with all-natural ingredients and are also 100% dairy and egg free. Be sure to stop in and get a treat; there is something for everyone to love. However, they also continue to take their food truck around the OKC metro and you can also rent their trailer to yourself for events, parties etc., see their website for more details. ( Website )
