Tainan is known as one of Taiwan’s top food destinations, boasting countless delicious snacks and restaurants that are beloved by both domestic and international tourists. Aside from its street food, brunch in Tainan is also well worth a visit. Below are five popular spots suitable for travelers looking to enjoy a laid-back trip through the ancient city and savor a charming afternoon.

1. Taigu Home
Located in Tainan, Taigu Home is not only a brunch spot but also offers accommodation for travelers. Taigu has transformed an old building into a tavern, restaurant, and homestay, preserving the original structure while incorporating Western antique furniture to create a new look.

Because the owners are passionate about food and collecting vintage items, they have breathed new life into an old Japanese-era house. Starting with their first restaurant and bar, they have since expanded to include an afternoon tea shop, a furniture store, and a brunch and homestay location — totaling three branches. Upholding the spirit of heritage and innovation, they share their philosophy.
