If brunch is your love language, there’s a new spot in town that’s bound to win your heart. Brunch Bureau has officially opened its doors at S Maison in the MOA Complex, and it’s already changing the way Manila does mornings—or mid-mornings, or even lazy afternoons. Designed for those who see brunch not just as a meal but as a ritual, the café brings together comfort, creativity, and a sense of community that feels right at home in the city’s premier lifestyle hub.
Beyond Basic Brunch
At Brunch Bureau, the menu doesn’t just check the usual boxes—it reinvents them. Familiar flavors are given surprising new twists, creating dishes that are both comforting and exciting. One standout is the Banana Bread Eggs Benedict, a playful yet genius combination that layers sweetness and richness, all tied together with the magic of a perfectly runny yolk. It’s a dish that immediately sets the tone for the restaurant: unexpected, indulgent, and memorable.
For those who crave bold flavors, the Korean Chicken Chop delivers on all fronts—crispy on the outside, juicy inside, and coated in a sticky glaze with just the right kick of heat. Meanwhile, the Classic Trio sampler is perfect for indecisive diners, offering a taste of the house favorites in one satisfying plate.
Comfort Meets Creativity
Of course, not all brunch cravings lean heavy. Brunch Bureau balances indulgence with lighter, refreshing options. The Grilled Cheese Sandwich with Tomato “Cappuccino” feels like a warm hug in food form, while the Pesto Chicken with Mangoes brings vibrancy to the table, blending creamy basil pesto with the natural sweetness of tropical fruit. Each dish is thoughtfully crafted, proving that brunch can be equal parts indulgent and wholesome.
A Global Brunch Table
What sets Brunch Bureau apart is its global approach to flavors. The menu draws inspiration from American, European, and Asian influences, resulting in a dining experience that feels expansive yet accessible. Expect the familiarity of pancakes, eggs benedict, and rice bowls, but with reimagined touches influenced by Korean spice, Italian herbs, and Filipino comfort food. It’s brunch, but with a passport.
This diversity ensures that no matter what mood you’re in—whether it’s hearty, savory, light, or sweet—there’s always something worth trying. And because the menu is broad but curated, guests can keep coming back without repeating the same experience.
Made for the S Maison Crowd
Brunch Bureau couldn’t have chosen a better home than S Maison. With its stylish interiors and cosmopolitan vibe, the café fits seamlessly into the mall’s upscale yet approachable atmosphere. It naturally attracts a wide mix of diners: young professionals squeezing in mid-day meetings, Gen Z foodies documenting their plates for Instagram, brunch-loving titas enjoying catch-ups, and families making a weekend out of it.
From Dream to Movement
Behind Brunch Bureau are Gemini Food Corp. and Brewers-Haven Inc., two proudly homegrown companies with a shared passion for food, coffee, and cocktails. What began as a simple dream—to offer more meaningful dining experiences—has grown into a full-fledged brunch movement. Their philosophy is simple but powerful: create spaces where people can share good food, good company, and lasting memories.
Why It Works
In many ways, Brunch Bureau captures what people love most about brunch. It’s casual yet elevated, familiar yet full of surprises. It’s the perfect backdrop for a barkada get-together, a breakfast-for-dinner date, or a post-shopping refuel. Most of all, it’s an experience that feels intentional—one that turns everyday dining into something worth savoring.
Now open at S Maison, MOA Complex, Brunch Bureau invites everyone to slow down, dig in, and enjoy the kind of food that lingers long after the last bite. Because here, brunch isn’t just better—it’s unforgettable.
