Single Origin: #YourGoToPlace for Any Time of Day Eats

Food is a love language. If there’s one thing that ties Filipino culture together, it’s food. In every family gathering, party, or barkada (friend group) hangout, food is at the center of it all. So much so that being invited out by friends without any plan to get food seems almost criminal — like we are bound to get hungry sometime, and what better way to catch up than to do it while having a delicious meal, snack, or coffee?
The Beat Manila got to visit Single Origin's newly opened branch at Opus Mall, a new upscale establishment on its way to becoming one of Manila's lifestyle hubs, and it checked off all our food hotspot musts from the ambience down to its menu offerings and taste. This lovely bistro café presents itself as #YourGoToPlace for specialty coffee, comfort food, artisan delights, and craft cocktails.

Whether you’re looking to have a filling meal or a cup of good coffee with a friend, we’re listing down our Single Origin Favorites perfect for specific occasions at any time of the day.
Single Origin is #YourGoToPlace…
To start the day right
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day and at Single Origin, you can find some of the tastiest and most filling breakfast and brunch options that will surely make your day and prepare you for anything that comes your way.
Fried chicken is the best but put it together with waffles and it’s a match made in food heaven! We highly recommend their hearty Fried Chicken and Waffles, which comes with a side salad and sticky Maple syrup.
Another contender for their best breakfast bites is their Homemade Corned Beef Benedict which is made with potato hash, poached eggs, and hollandaise sauce.
Want a healthier option? You can also try their Mixed Berries Smoothie Bowl. Talk about delish!
To work and catch up
Great conversations are almost always over good coffee and Single Origin doesn’t miss in the coffee department. You’ll surely soften up your business partners once they get a taste of the sweet Salted Caramel Latte, which you can have either hot or iced.
Working remotely? Feel energized with a cup of Peruvian Mocha as you work your way through those deadlines! Even better, choose from their wide selection of delectable pastries to have on the side!
The new Opus Mall branch also has a relaxing ambiance that makes it the ideal spot for a study or work session. High glass windows that let natural light in, comfortable seating, and a homey industrial design are just some of its highlights. It’s more than just a food place, it’s a destination worthy of a spot on your IG feed.
Food tip: The Single Origin Opus Mall branch is offering an exclusive “Midday Perk” where you can get two iced coffees for only P380 (P360 for hot). This is limited to certain coffee menu options and is available daily from 1 PM to 5 PM.
If you need a little pick me up
They say laughter is the best medicine. We beg to differ. The best remedy is heartwarming comfort foods or a sweet treat, which you can absolutely find here.
Get your fill with dishes infused with local flavors such as the Pork Belly BBQ Rice Bowl or go with the classic S.O. Burger packed with a juicy Wagyu beef patty, melted Elemental cheese, and veggies.
For those with a sweet tooth, satisfy your cravings with their delightful Biscoff Cheesecake or croffles! The Banana and Biscoff Croffles is a must-try!
Breakfast yummies, such as the S.O. French Toast, are also right up there in our list of recommendations and will surely put a smile on your face after a long hard day (breakfast for dinner? Count us in!) or if you’re simply looking for merienda (light afternoon snack) options.
For sweet dates
Whether it’s with your SO’s, family or friends, going out on a date is a chance to spoil our loved ones and to make them feel special. Yourself included, of course, because we’re all about self-love here, and it’s only right that we go on solo dates every now and then to treat ourselves!
From the snack bestsellers and light meals like W.T.F. (Wow, Truffle Fries!) and BBQ Chicken Salad (our personal fave!) to their tasty mains such as the Jack Daniel’s BBQ Baby Back Ribs and White Truffle Pasta, Single Origin brings out the best of the best to make any date night — or day — the best one yet!

For a night out with friends or colleagues
TGIF! One of our favorite phrases because who isn’t hyped up for the weekend? From celebrating promotions and milestones to bonding and catching up with colleagues after a work week, Single Origin invites everyone to raise their glass and have a ball!
Their Craft Cocktails look just as good as they taste and are the perfect companion for both night and brunch outs! Yup, you heard that right. The bistro is currently offering a Boozy Brunch promo where you can get two cocktails for just P499, every day from 10 AM to 2 PM!
It’s Happier Hour from 3 PM onwards at Single Origin, where you can get three cocktails for only P649! From the Margaritas and Sangrias to the fizzy Passionfruit Mojito and Sunrise Spritz mocktails, you’re sure to find the perfect drink for you.
