Max’s Bistro & Bar serves Sunday brunch in Fresno every week from 11:00am to 2:00pm. Located at 1784 W Bullard Avenue, Max’s brings the same California-bistro philosophy to brunch that has defined the restaurant since 1997 — fresh, seasonal ingredients prepared with care and served in a relaxed, welcoming atmosphere inspired by the neighborhood bistros of San Francisco.

The brunch menu reflects what the kitchen does best: dishes built around that morning’s freshest available ingredients, with proteins sourced and selected for quality. The full bar is open during brunch service, including hand-shaken martinis and a wine list curated to complement lighter daytime fare. Whether you’re joining for a slow Sunday with friends, a post-event celebration, or a family meal, Max’s offers a brunch experience that feels genuinely elevated without being formal.

Reservations are available through OpenTable and recommended for weekend service.

What to Expect

Sunday brunch at Max’s Bistro reflects the same standards that have made the restaurant one of Fresno’s most consistent dining destinations for nearly three decades. The kitchen’s commitment to daily freshness means the brunch menu draws on seasonal produce and proteins that meet the same selection criteria as the dinner service.

The atmosphere stays true to Max’s signature San Francisco-inspired warmth: comfortable, unhurried, and attentive. The martini bar and wine program are fully available, making Max’s one of the few Fresno brunch destinations where a well-made cocktail is part of the experience, not an afterthought.
