On Tuesdays the bartenders wiggle into Hawaiian shirts, pass out a special tropical drinks list and whip up brain-freezing concoctions like the Nuclear Banana Daiquiri (rum, banana liqueur, Falernum, lime juice and a punch of Yellow Chartreuse). But we may love the place most for its little-known tiki night. What kind of magic was barman Eddie Eakin, who came over from Boulevardier, working exactly? And we kept going back, making our way down the cocktail menu and then back up it, eating hot fried chicken and quickly turning into Rapscallion devotees. The original is made with blackstrap rum, Falernum (a syrup used in tiki drinks) and a squeeze of lime Rapscallion's version includes a grilled lime wheel and bitters, making it surprisingly earthy. Would we go again: Still working on acquiring a taste for PBR, but we’ll absolutely be back.We knew Rapscallion on Lowest Greenville made exceptional cocktails after trying the Kern N' Oil, its take on the classic Corn N' Oil. The place itself was rundown, the servers had an average of 3 hair colors each, and the bathroom was covered in offensive drawings and scribbles on the stalls, but it was all part of the charm. We were greeted by a girl who was less than thrilled to seat yet another group of hungover bitches in maxi dresses, but there was a hot bartender that I definitely couldn’t bring home to the parents. Each drink is $20, but well worth it.Ītmosphere: Being in Deep Ellum, this is obviously not your average brunch hot spot full of girls decked out in lulu we looked out of place, to say the least. ![]() ![]() After polishing off the last tot I focused on the mimosa, which was huge and pretty strong. It may have been the hangover talking, but my food was so amazing I don’t think I stopped to speak, breathe, or even take a drink. Not big on Sangria, but I’ll admit that was the food option I wanted most. The Bloody Mary was stacked with, of course, celery, olives, peppers, cheese, sausage, and last but not least- a slider and onion rings. We all opted for the Mimosas (there is also a Screwdriver option with the same toppings) and we were presented with a massive mason jar complete with 2 mini breakfast sandwiches, a freshly baked cinnamon roll, tater tots, and a stick of sliced fruit, with a lukewarm glass of PBR as a complimentary appetizer (woo…). The Sangria option features all the ingredients to make fajitas, mini taquitos, and fruit, right there on top of your drink. Not to mention the huge glass of PBR (ugh) they give you while you wait- after finishing everything, you won’t need to eat or drink more – fuck brunch, indeed.įood/Drinks: Anvil offers a complete brunch menu separate from the Fuck Brunch drink/food options, but of course we wanted to snap pics of our fancy mimosas just like everyone else, so we focused solely on the Fuck Brunch menu. By now most have seen the pictures of “Fuck Brunch”- mason jars filled with enough alcohol to take the edge off your hangover and piled high with food to settle your stomach. One Saturday morning we ventured slightly out of the bubble and took a trip to Deep Ellum to check out Anvil Pub.
