RVA Brunch Weekend kicks off this Friday, Sept. 6, and runs through Sunday, Sept. 8. If you stop by one of 30 participating restaurants on Saturday or Sunday, 15% of the proceeds will go straight to the Richmond SPCA.

The festivities begin on Friday with a party at Final Gravity Brewing Co. from 5:30 to 9 p.m. The event will feature food, live music, and swag bags for the first 100 people to show up.

On Saturday or Sunday, grab your pals and get ready to brunch. Here are a few specials from participating restaurants that we’ve got our eyes on.
