It’s officially brunch season! Ok, well maybe that’s not a real thing… but do you really need an excuse to brunch? We’ve picked 5 spots we think are perfect to for a laid back (possibly boozy) weekend brunch, see you there! 

BRUT CAKE CAFÉ

Address: 698 Yuyuan Lu

Brunch Hours: Weekends, 11am-9pm

Tel: [phone]

Price: RMB 50-100 per person

Quirky little café with homemade furniture (most of which is actually refurbished and for sale). The food is great and not too pricey. Cozy atmosphere makes it a perfect brunch choice, especially considering they do ‘ALL DAY BRUNCH’ from 11am-9pm on weekends.

This French café has a surprisingly laid back atmosphere, considering how amazing the crepes and other menu offerings are. Also a perfect outdoor patio to enjoy a little nice weather while you brunch. 

SOBER CAFÉ

Address: 99 Yangdang Lu (near Nanchang lu)

Café hours: 8am-1am

Tel: [phone]

Price: RMB 100-250 per person

Shanghai’s newest F&B monolith ‘Sober Company’ has given us all a wonderful new brunch option. Their euro/HK/Japan style breakfast diner and café on the first floor has indoor and outdoor seating, great breakfast options, and best of all: a selection of great coffee cocktails and other booze. 

DAGA CAFE & BREWPUB

Daga has two locations in Shanghai, both have great selections of beer, which includes a lot of underappreciated Chinese craft. They also have awesome food (but we go mainly for the beer and cheery atmosphere). 

BITES & BREWS

Address: 399 Jiaozhou Lu

Brunch Hours: Weekends starting at 

Tel: [phone] 

Price: RMB 50-150 per person

This little sandwich and beer spot has a lot to offer when it comes to brunch, even though they don’t technically HAVE brunch…stay with us here. They offer a half salad half sandwich deal on weekends for an impossibly low RMB 35. Add a few of their great brews and BAM, it’s an off-the-books brunch.
