    If you are looking for a great breakfast in Ocean Springs, Mississippi, you need to visit the Blue Dog Bistro.

    We had multiple people tell us that the breakfast and brunch menu were amazing and we needed to try it at least once if not multiple times.

    One thing we really love about the Blue Dog Bistro Menu is they designate which items are Keto, Paleo, Vegan, and Gluten Free. If you have dietary restrictions or are following a cleaner lifestyle diet this is the perfect Ocean Springs restaurant to visit.

    I would also say they are one of the best coffee shops in Ocean Springs. It is not often you see Kopi Luwak coffee on a menu. We had only seen it while we were traveling in Indonesia and were shocked to see it so close to home.

    TL;DR Don't have time to read the full article? Here are my top finds:
