Citizens of Montrose

The highly acclaimed Australian café-restaurant, Citizens, debuted in Houston during the summer of 2023. Citizens of Montrose, the all-day Australian café-restaurant marked the brand’s first location outside of New York, where Australian co-founders Justin Giuffrida and Andrew Geisel have made Citizens’ footing since 2016. 

Houstonians and visitors can expect a fresh take on breakfast classics, all with an Australian flair. Always cooking with the seasons, the concept features dishes that are both healthy and hearty, such as Citizens’ house-made Banana Bread French Toast with Miso Butterscotch, BBQ Pulled Pork Benny on their signature Cheddar Biscuit and their Cast Iron Chorizo Baked Eggs.

The breakfast-focused menu is served all day, and features a variety of lunch options, including a Fried Chicken Sandwich with Yuzo Aioli, Smashed Double Brisket Burger, and bowls such as their Miso Chicken and Harissa Salad. Guests can enjoy a signature flat white, which is an Australian staple, various blends of their house coffee, and several unique nitro cold brews. Citizens also offers uplifting craft cocktails based on fresh citrus and fluffy juice made to order and a selection of seasonal frozen cocktails.
