The Breakfast Klub

The overview

Wings and waffles worth the line, since 2001.

The Breakfast Klub has drawn lines through Houston's Midtown since 2001, when Marcus Davis opened a soul-food breakfast spot whose Katfish & Grits and Wings & Waffle became citywide obsessions. It's as much a community gathering place — a celebrated Black-owned Houston institution — as a restaurant, with a queue out the door most mornings.

Featured everywhere from Good Morning America to countless best-of lists, the Breakfast Klub is the 2026 Centurion Award winner in Houston.

A signal you can check.

This is a dated award record, published by The Centurion Awards after The Breakfast Klub cleared the 2026 evaluation for its market and category. It was not bought, voted on, or sponsored — the criteria are public, only winners are published, and an award that stops holding up is revoked, not quietly removed. Awards run one calendar year and renew only if the business clears the bar again. For everything else — hours, bookings, live reviews — go straight to the business itself.
