Marauder’s Brew Cafe, Baguio: New, Hogwarts-Themed Cafe Serving Pumpkin Pasties & Butterbeer

Marauder’s Brew Cafe


If you’re still waiting for your Hogwarts acceptance letter at the ripe age of 20+, we bring you good news. You no longer need to travel to King’s Cross Station in London and run through Platform 9 3/4 to enter the Wizarding World.

Marauder’s Brew Cafe is a new Hogwarts-themed cafe in Baguio City. It offers Wizarding World vibes and serves food inspired by elements from the popular book series-turned-movie franchise.

The entrance to Marauder’s Brew Cafe has the iconic trolley from Platform 9 3/4 in King’s Cross London, which will make you feel as if you’re really going into the Wizarding World.

However, the highlight of the cafe’s interior would be the area that looks like the Gryffindor common room with couches and a fireplace. But of course, students from all Houses are welcome to hang out here.

Potterheads will love the other magical details that are incorporated into the cafe’s decor. There’s even a replica of the Mirror of the Erised where you can take mirror selfies wearing Hogwarts costumes.


Costumes and props

At the cafe, you can borrow cloaks with your house crest and scarves with your house colors for photos. They also have wands to complete the look.

Meanwhile, if you’ve always dreamed of being a Quidditch player, the cafe has a Nimbus 2000 broom prop which diners are free to take pictures with.


Board games and books

There are also some activities you can do at Marauder’s Brew Cafe so you’ll truly feel at home in “Hogwarts”.

Gather your friends and have fun playing card games including Cards Against Muggles. They also have classic games such as Uno, Jenga, and Monopoly to test if your friendship can withstand challenges, just like the Golden Trio’s did.

If you want to go to the cafe to read, it also has a shelf full of muggle books that Hermione would be pleased to see.


Wizarding World-inspired menu

The cafe’s interior isn’t the only aspect of it that’s Wizarding World-themed. They have menu items that are inspired by food and characters from the series.

No Wizarding World-themed attraction is complete without Butterbeer. Marauder’s Brew Cafe’s version is non-alcoholic so everyone can enjoy it.

Another drink you should try is their Loony latte which looks just as whimsical as Luna Lovegood with its blue gradient.


Pumpkin pasty.

On the other hand, a must-try item on their food menu is the pumpkin pasty, which is a snack sold aboard the Hogwarts Express. It’s a light and flaky pastry that’s a cross between a cream puff and a croissant.

The city’s cold climate will even make the experience 4D, as if you’re in Hogwarts in autumn.
