Every weekend, something different happens at Sula Indian Restaurant. The tandoor fires up before dawn, the kitchen starts folding spices into waffle batters and egg dishes, and by 11 AM, three locations across Vancouver are serving one of the most distinctive brunch menus in the city.
This isn’t your standard eggs-and-toast situation. Sula’s Indian brunch menu takes familiar weekend favourites and reimagines them with the same award-winning spice profiles that have made the restaurant a Vancouver institution since 2010. Think rasmalai waffles, vindaloo egg bhurji, Malabari shrimp bennies, and masala veggie hash — all served alongside craft cocktails in one of the warmest dining rooms in the city.
Why Sula’s Brunch Is Different From Everything Else
Vancouver doesn’t lack brunch options — but it does lack variety. Most brunch restaurants in the city serve some version of the same eggs benedict, the same avocado toast, the same French toast. The menus blur together because the flavour profiles are identical.
Sula’s brunch stands apart because every dish starts with Indian technique and Indian ingredients. The waffles are soaked in rasmalai cream. The eggs are spiced with garam masala. The shrimp benny uses a Malabari-style preparation. Even the sides — masala fries, tomato chutney, garlic naan — add layers of flavour that standard brunch restaurants simply don’t offer.
It’s still approachable — you don’t need to know Indian cuisine to enjoy it. But once you’ve had a vindaloo egg bhurji, a regular scramble never quite hits the same way.
Good to know — Brunch is served every Saturday and Sunday from 11:00 AM to 2:30 PM at all three locations — Commercial Drive, Main Street, and Davie Street. Reservations are recommended, especially for groups of 4 or more.
What to Order: Sula’s Signature Brunch Dishes
Crispy Belgian waffles soaked in house-made rasmalai cream with cardamom, saffron, and pistachio, topped with seasonal fruit. The dish that made Sula’s brunch famous — sweet, fragrant, and unlike anything else in Vancouver.
A Sula original. Tandoori shrimp on toasted naan with poached eggs and a Malabari coconut hollandaise, served with masala fries. This is the dish that converts eggs benedict loyalists into regulars.
Indian-spiced scrambled eggs with garam masala and roasted onion, served alongside a masala vegetable hash with crispy potatoes. Comes with grilled buttered pav bun and tomato chutney. Comfort food with serious depth.
Spiced lamb patty with house pickles, raita, and crispy onion bhajia on a toasted brioche bun, served with masala fries. The kind of brunch dish that makes you cancel your afternoon plans.
Brunch Cocktails & Drinks Worth Ordering
Sula’s brunch cocktails are as distinctive as the food. These aren’t generic mimosas — each drink is built around Indian flavours and house-made ingredients.
