I highly recommend Chef Keith’s Brunch All-Day, especially the “Basic Brunch.” At 290 pesos, it’s a steal.
This tasty dish even fills up my oversized belly. Keith will cook your egg to order (I love the scrambles.) Along with the eggs, the dish features a tasty sausage, bacon, toast, beans, fresh tomatoes, and fresh-brewed coffee/tea. There’s no rice, strictly a Western-style dish.
It’s my personal favorite along with Keith’s “Monster Fries” for only 119 pesos. I’ve sampled French fries all over our island province along with dozens of places in nearby Iloilo City. Keith’s “Monster Fries” are the best!

WHY HAVE WEEKENDS AT ESPASYO?
Make it a habit to rest and recreate, bond with family and friends especially after a long working week. “The Kano,” along with my beautiful wife, “The Sainted Patient Wife,” often visit this eclectic café and enjoy the ambiance and the mouthwatering food and drinks. Our fun group of foreigners and their significant others often join us.
It’s a cozy place first-class destination to bring your friends.
Espasyo Pub + Café shares a space to make your weekends more fun and extra memorable.
Here are some reasons why you need to drop by.

Here’s a look at my tattoo
My tattoo is from Psalm 23, the fourth verse:
“Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death I will fear no evil for you are with me your rod and your staff, they comfort me.”
At a cost of only 1,500 pesos, it’s a bargain. Quality work from Lee. Honestly, he should have charged more since he had to listen to my B.S. stories I usually share with my expat friends on the island. Took a little over an hour. Painful? Not for a crusty old expat like me.
- BOOZE BREAK – For pops and your titos (uncles) and ninongs (godfathers), they have cold beer, tequila shots and Espasyo signature cocktails – island sunrise, vodka coffee and Zafiro lime.
- COZY VIBES, UNLI COFFEE & FREE WIFI! – Food and experience will be nothing if the vibes don’t blend well. At Espasyo, share a space where you can chill and relax. They have free Wi-Fi, and options for co-working space and unli-coffee.
