Inspired by the sun-soaked Mediterranean region, théa, which translates to the “goddess of light,” offers unrivaled views from its picturesque rooftop under the shadow of iconic Camelback Mountain — a perfect setting for guests seeking an elevated, sky-high haven for their midday weekend revelries.

The new menu features staple brunch items with a Mediterranean flair rooted in fresh and house-made ingredients that combine the classic with the unexpected.

Of course, what would brunch even be without a round of cocktails? Enjoy elevated classics like Champagne for Breakfast ($16), accompanied by sparkling wine or peach, clover honey, pomegranate, apricot or lemon juice; the Perfect Bloody Mary ($17) with Wheatley vodka, peppercorn tincture, chipotle, Sacramento tomato and a salt & pepper rim; or the Espresso Martini ($19) with Ketel One vodka, borghetti Italian liqueur, slow-steeped coffee – perfect for those who like a little extra buzz.
