Nowadays, breakfast items are basically staples in majority of restaurants, and we’ve predicted before that these items would dominate the food world this year. We no longer need to wake up early to relish the goodness of these dishes because they are usually served all-day long.

So, if you missed McDonald’s annual National Breakfast Day promo, what better way to celebrate this all-day occasion than by visiting one of these restaurants to go get your brunch, and even dinner, fix? After all, this is your yearly pass to eat breakfast at any time of the day.

Some pastries are gluten-free, so you can still have your fix even if you have restrictions.

Going beyond just single origin coffee (where the restaurant acquired its name) Single Origin is a neighborhood café which dishes up savory breakfast items, and at night, turns into an instant after-work hangout spot also as it serves craft beers and spirits. One of their notable brunch dishes is their deconstructed version of the Eggs Benedict (P240) which is presented open-faced sans the English muffin, but with the same lure of ingredients like the potatoes and signature hollandaise sauce with the addition of homemade corned beef.

Must-try: The Honey Latte (P150), Iced Vanilla Latte (P180), Fried Chicken with Waffles (P320), and Choco Bacon Pancakes (P320)

It is, primarily, a cake gallery but it also has an all-day breakfast menu, some of which are inventive takes on the regular staples. It has Spam fries (P235) where sticks of Spam are coated with panko bread crumb and deep-fried until crispy and golden brown.

#5 The Butcher Shop and Pub

Despite being nestled in an upscale area, The Butcher Shop and Pub is relatively a watering hole. It does not scrimp on servings and items are priced moderately and reasonably. In the façade, it can be quickly labeled as a typical gastropub mainly dishing up smoked and grilled items with your usual bar liquor. But it also has an all-day breakfast menu served in big portions. Pair these up with their choices of coffee and tea for a complete brunch experience.

Must-try: Thick Cut Bailey’s French Toast (P299), The Best F*cking Pork and Beans (P375), and Smoked Honey Pork Silog (P299)

The Butcher Shop and Pub. G/F, Wumaco Building, Lane P corner 9th Avenue, Bonifacio Global City, Taguig City. (02) 831-3543. Open from 10 a.m. to 12 m.n. from Mondays to Thursdays, 10 a.m. to 2 a.m. on Fridays and Saturdays, and closed on Sundays. For more information, visit their Facebook page.

#6 Milky & Sunny

Dubbing itself as the “sunniest restro in the metro,” Milky & Sunny will practically make you jump from your bed and dive into its pure breakfast menu. The original Kapitolyo gem recently branched out in Makati as a franchise of celebrity mom Pia Magalona.

There are selections from Elmo’s Omelettes (P180 to P195), too, which is named after singer-actor Elmo Magalona as he was fondly called “omelette” by his family when he was younger. Milky and Sunny also has some breakfast potluck portions available for your party needs.
