For coffee connoisseurs

22 Martin

Named after Common Man Coffee Roasters’ first café in Singapore, 22 Martin is a popular brew that takes you on a flavor journey of dark chocolate, hazelnut, and molasses.

Jabanto

If you’re a fan of fruity flavors in your coffee, this single-origin brew from Ethiopia boasts of tasting notes of red grape, guava, and blueberry. It is featured as one of the café’s filter brews.

For fans of sweet, coffee-based drinks

Nitro Oat Honey Latte

If you have a sweet tooth, this drink is for you. This delightfully unique latte promises a sweeter flavor profile, making it a favorite among Common Man Coffee Roasters' fans.

22 Martini

Common Man Coffee Roasters also takes its craft cocktails seriously. One must-try drink is 22 Martini, which has a deliciously boozy combo of vodka, espresso, hazelnut liqueur, and coconut sugar syrup.

For brunch enthusiasts

Common Man Full Breakfast

This plentiful and savory meal is exactly what its name suggests. A full breakfast through and through, it includes beautifully cooked eggs on top of artisanal sourdough, a generous serving of meats, housemade hashbrowns, and baked chorizo beans.

Common Man Veggie Wonderland

If you prefer veggies over meat, you'll love the full breakfast's veggie counterpart. Common Man Veggie Wonderland trades the bacon and sausages for seared Halloumi cheese and creamy avocado.

Mushroom Avocado Toast

Oyster and Shimeji mushrooms, red onion pickle, togarashi, and a drizzle of green oil—this is definitely not your typical avocado toast.

Smash Burger

Burger fans, make sure you check out this popular menu item. It comes with housemade, crispy-on-the-outside-juicy-inside beef patties, cheddar cheese, onion jam, lettuce, mayo, beetroot barbecue sauce, and herbed fries.

Margherita Pizza

Because pizza is always a great idea, try Common Man Coffee Roasters’ version of Margherita pizza. It's topped with tomato sauce, stracciatella cheese, housemade pesto, fresh basil, and parmesan.

For dessert lovers

Not Your Common Chocolate Cake

A flourless chocolate cake served with caramel sauce and vanilla ice cream, sounds wonderfully indulgent, right?

It’s time to embark on a coffee and brunch adventure like no other. Make sure you're one of the first to savor the delights of Common Man Coffee Roasters at The Restaurants at Ayala Triangle Gardens, Makati City.
