What could be better than bottomless mimosas and endless servings of French toast? Nothing, unless there’s a drag show involved.

Drag queen brunches have officially made their way to Arlington and are held nearly every Sunday at multiple locations in Washington, DC. Here’s where you can enjoy your favorite breakfast foods and watch an upcoming Sunday morning show that’s sure to knock your socks off.

Arlington Drag Brunch
Aug. 25, noon-2:30 p.m.
This Arlington drag brunch is hosted by Crystal Edge (Matt Enman) and stars Evon Michelle and Katrina Colby. Be on the lookout for other local DC entertainers that will make you feel like you’re truly part of the Sunday morning entourage. Brunch includes an endless buffet and $10 mimosas. // The Board Room VA: 925 B Garfield St., Arlington; $30 per person

DC Drag Brunch
Aug. 31, 11 a.m.-3 p.m.
Often imitated but never duplicated, DC Drag Brunch features some of the most recognizable local entertainers, with celebrity impersonators of Tina Turner, Beyoncé, Cardi B, Ariana Grande and more. The location recommends that you get your reservations early, as seats sell out quick and you don’t want to miss the show. Endless buffet brunch and complimentary mimosas are included. // DIRTY MARTINI: 1223 Connecticut Ave. NW, Washington, DC; $40

Chanellie’s Drag Brunch
Aug. 31, 11 a.m.-1:30 p.m.
“Come get served like a queen, by a queen,” says the Nellie’s Sports Bar website. The show gathers drag performers from all across the DMV and features an all-you-can-eat brunch with homemade pancakes, vegetarian pasta, seasonal fruit and more. Plus, you’re first mimosa or bloody mary is free. // Nellie’s Sports Bar: 900 U St. NW, Washington, DC; $40
