Fresno January Brunch

Brunch is Calling!

Get ready to join Brown Skin Brunchin’ this month at Max’s Bistro and Bar at Noon for a memorable brunch experience!

Experience California-bistro dining in a place reminiscent of San Francisco, where the cuisine is accessible and the service is humble – not unlike Max’s beginnings.

In June of 1997 Scott Stanley opened Max’s Market and Bakery (named after his son) on the corner of Bullard and West in Fresno. The café featured gourmet foods and sandwiches made daily with freshly baked, all-natural artisan bread handcrafted using old world methods.

Max’s Bistro and Bar is more than quality cuisine and service – it’s comfortable.

You know it by the three generations of Fresnans who each sit at their favorite table. You can hear it in the laughter that erupts between server and guest as it carries across the room. And you can see it on the faces of our culinary artisans as they look out the tiny kitchen window into a crowd of familiar faces who have become part of the Max’s family.

Max’s is comfortable. It’s never about ego – but relationships. It’s not about pretense – but culinary creativity.
