Brussels‘ brunch and breakfast scene has been growing exponentially over the past years, as the city is undergoing an overall make-over which cannot pass unnoticed. The neighborhood of Matongé has blossomed as it now offers all sorts of dining options for lazy weekends. Here are the best spots to indulge in a top-notch breakfast in Matongé, Brussels.

Mellow

Mellow
Although it has been serving customized frozen yogurts and fresh juices for some time, Mellow is slowly but steadily broadening its offer. Beyond the frozen yogurt topped with fresh seasonal fruits, chipped biscuits, nuts and syrups, Mellow offers brunch options which stand out from the usual all-you-can-eat formula. Sunday is pancake day, and these can come either sweet, with various fillings (chocolate, banana, speculaas, blueberry) or savory, in many different colors (spinach, red pepper or natural). Simply choose your toppings, add some extras and wash it all down with a fresh smoothie, yogurt shake or delicious coffee.

Stam

This cozy bistro offers its guests a taste of Europe in the atmosphere of a typical Belgian brasserie. Pick your treat from the blackboard depending on what range of flavors you prefer, from British to Swedish, American to Brusseleir. Those with a sweet tooth can try something from the dessert fridge. On weekdays they have a breakfast deal including a pastry with freshly brewed coffee and orange juice. https://instagram.com/p/BBHtjfYDr9h/?taken-at=225803822&hl=en

Little Tokyo offers a haven of zen for your Sunday morning soft awakenings. This Japanese canteen in the heart of Matongé stands out for its ability to merge a laid back atmosphere with Asian decor and a taste of Belgian brasserie. Every Sunday, you can enjoy the all-you-can-eat brunch menu which offers a mix of the classic eggs, bacon and pancakes fused with Japanese flavors, such as sweet potatoes seasoned with wasabi, grilled octopus or smoked salmon salad. Included in the formula is also a donburi, a traditional Japanese dish which serves fish meat or veggies with steamed sticky rice. Wash it all down with homemade bissap or iced tea.
