Start with the mood
Brunch, properly chosen.
We compared 4 venues against the brief. 4 researched picks made the cut.
THE QUICK ANSWER
For a brunch booking, start with Reform Social & Grill for lakeside garden and proper pub atmosphere, Bistro des Arts for classic French bistro cooking with current prices, Dai Pai Dong for excellent dim sum and Cantonese barbecue and Asia Asia Yas Bay for high-energy waterfront room. Every restaurant shown here has enough editorial research to earn its place; the wider directory is kept separate.
Restaurants with brunch recorded in their venue details. Confirm the current menu, day, price and drinks package with the venue before booking; a brunch listing is not a promise of a live offer.

Are prices and opening hours guaranteed?
No. We check official information, show when profiles were last reviewed and recommend confirming time-sensitive details with the venue.
