Where should you go for brunch in KL on a budget?

1/7
Wheeloaf
Wheeloaf is a food truck selling Western meals like wraps, sandwiches and even ribs for the hungry and busy crowd. It changes its location pretty often, so you'll have to check its Facebook page for updates. However, the taste and the prices of their food render it worth to travel wherever they are for the day. It won't take long anyway, as they are always situated somewhere within the boundaries of Kuala Lumpur. Sometimes, Wheeloaf teams up with cafes to provide customers a conducive place to enjoy their meal. Other times, you'll have to eat in your car. But that shouldn't deter you from having cheap and good food, right?

Crack Pork
The name of this place should give you an idea of the specialty dish of this place - crackling roasted pork that tastes as good as it sounds. There are a variety of sandwiches from French baguettes to Chinese mantous, so you are free to choose according to your personal preferences. The coffee served here is also highly raved about, and we highly recommend that you order yourself a cuppa when you're there. Crack Pork also does delivery, for the days you need to rush to work, but also craving for a good brunch!

Coliseum Cafe may be a steakhouse, but its menu consists of simple brunch food like sandwiches as well. What's more, it opens as early as 10am every day!

Other lighter meals include local specialties such as fried rice, noodles, toast and scones. With so much to choose from, Coliseum Cafe just might become your next go-to spot for brunch!

Tappers
The aim of Tappers was to provide a colonial-style setting to customers, serving up a menu consisting of both local and Western delights for an east-meets-west experience. It provides an extensive menu of all sorts of dishes for you to choose from, making it one of the best places to head to if you can't decide whether you'd like a Big Breakfast or Aglio Olio that morning. Don't be surprised if you're tempted to keep going back for more. With such reasonable prices and amazing food, we won't blame you.

CoffeeSociété
Although CoffeeSociété is more often praised for its outstanding coffee brews, it also cooks up several delectable brunch dishes such as your usual Eggs Benedict and smoked salmon croissant, just to name a few. It is a place you would think of to chill and relax in on a lovely, sunny morning while having a nice catch-up session with your best friends. The food and drinks here are relatively affordable, and are definitely worth your repeated visits.

Brunch was invented for the people who want to sleep in, but also for those who want to enjoy the luxury of having a hearty breakfast spread to start off their day. However, of course, most cafes and restaurants that offer all-day breakfast, or perhaps food you would usually have for lunch at breakfast timings, tend more towards the pricey side of the spectrum, which means that it might be difficult for brunch to be enjoyed on a daily basis.

Thankfully, there are a few places in Kuala Lumpur that have heard your cry. These places not only have long opening hours for the days you decide to wake up a bit earlier, but also serve a wide variety of affordable food to cater to your ever-changing tastebuds. Who says brunch is only limited to Western Eggs Benedict and chicken waffles? Head up to our gallery to read about the types of food you’ll be able to relish for brunch every single day from now on.
