Brunch BGC at St. Louis Philippines means waffles, churros cooked to order, affogato and gelato made in-house, with the cafe open from 8:00 AM at Unit 104-A, Lower Ground Floor, Bonifacio High Street Central, 7th Avenue. It is open until 10:00 PM Sunday to Thursday and until 11:00 PM on Friday and Saturday. The cafe began in Adelaide, South Australia, and now runs two branches, BGC and Alabang, with a third announced. Details here come from St. Louis Philippines.
What the BGC Menu Actually Covers
St. Louis sits at Unit 104-A, Lower Ground Floor, Bonifacio High Street Central. The menu covers more than gelato. Waffles are a reliable anchor: you can take them sweet with gelato on top, or lean into a more savory-adjacent build depending on what's running that day. The ice cream croissant is the kind of item that photographs well and tastes even better than it looks.
Brunch dishes fill the middle of the menu between the pastry side and the full dessert end. Coffee runs through the whole card, and the affogato, espresso poured over gelato, is a smart order at any time of day. It works as both a breakfast jolt and a dessert in one glass.
The gelato is made fresh in-house daily. That detail matters because it means the texture and flavors shift with what the kitchen is running, so a visit in October won't be identical to one in January.
The Brunch Window: When to Go in BGC
Weekends are the usual time for a late-morning visit.
The cafe is open Sunday to Thursday from 8:00 AM to 10:00 PM and Friday and Saturday from 8:00 AM to 11:00 PM, so you have room at either end of the day.
Kid-Friendly and Family-Ready in BGC
St. Louis works well for families. The dessert-forward menu gives kids something to get excited about, and churros cooked to order are a reliable crowd-pleaser for younger guests. Bonifacio High Street Central has its own parking building.
For parents who want a proper coffee while the kids work through a waffle and gelato plate, the affogato is an easy choice.
The Alabang Branch: Same Menu, Different Side of the Metro
If you're coming from the south side of Metro Manila, the Alabang branch is at Unit 18A, Molito Lifestyle Center on Madrigal Avenue.
The Molito location draws from Alabang, Muntinlupa, Paranaque and Las Pinas. Both branches keep identical hours.

Dessert Crossovers Worth Ordering
The menu at St. Louis blurs the line between brunch and dessert in a deliberate way, and that's the point. A few orders that work particularly well for the brunch occasion:
Waffles with gelato. The waffle is substantial enough to eat as a meal. Add a scoop of whichever gelato the kitchen is running that day, and you have a plate that covers both bases.
Affogato. Espresso over gelato. It's quick to make, strong enough to replace a flat white, and sweet enough to count as dessert. Order it alongside a savory dish and the meal feels complete.
Churros. Cooked to order, so expect a short wait. The wait is worth it. They arrive hot and are best eaten immediately.
Ice cream croissant. An original on the menu and one of the more shareable items for a couple or a small group.
Planning a Group Brunch, Birthday or Event
St. Louis handles private events and cart hire for groups. The gelato, coffee and affogato carts are available for weddings, corporate events, birthday parties, brand activations and private dinners anywhere in Metro Manila. Contact the team early if you want a cart at a weekend event.
