Another beloved food and beverage name is coming to Singapore. Mary Grace Cafe, a household favorite in the Philippines known for its heartwarming bakes and homestyle meals, will open its first outlet here in 2026. This marks the brand’s first overseas venture since it began more than two decades ago.
Although the exact opening date and location remain under wraps, fans can follow updates on the cafe’s Singapore Instagram page. Singaporeans have already had a taste of what is to come. Just last month, Mary Grace held a three day online pop up from September 11 to 13, delivering its cult favorite ensaymadas and cheese rolls. The ensaymada, a Filipino pastry with Spanish roots, is typically topped with butter, sugar and grated cheese, while the cheese roll offers a rich and pillowy bite of indulgence.

Mary Grace prides itself on using fresh, local ingredients with no artificial colorings, additives, preservatives or pork lard. According to the brand, every pastry is made with one hundred per cent real butter and eggs, staying true to the recipes that have made them so loved in the Philippines.
The story of Mary Grace Cafe is as heartwarming as its food. What began in 2002 as a small bakery kiosk grew from the kitchen of Mary Grace, a mother of five with an entrepreneurial spirit and strong family support. By 2006, the brand expanded into a full service cafe serving hot meals alongside its signature bakes. Today, it has around 140 outlets across the Philippines, from kiosk stalls to full cafes, with a strong presence in Metro Manila at malls such as Alabang Town Center, Ayala Malls Circuit, Century City Mall and Bonifacio High Street.
