brunch on the bench


breakfast. supposedly the most important meal of the day but all too often the one we rush through. crunching on half burnt toast with bleary eyes, or running out the door with a cereal bar in hand. enter brunch at the bench. since we opened our first restaurant in the 90s, we’ve been celebrating the power of food as the fuel for our soul, and now we’re here to make mornings a moment to savour. so you can start your day with something delicious, nutritious and energising. like our big breakfasts, chicken katsu waffles or tamago toast. all enjoyed while sipping on a coffee, or one of our delicious cocktails
