An Austin tradition.
Since 1984, the Metropolitan Breakfast Club (MBC) has provided a weekly forum for Members and Guests to hear community and business leaders speak out. It is also a place to enjoy good company, do business, and have a great buffet breakfast at the University of Texas Club.

Our speakers
They have a passion.
At the MBC, you get to meet and hear some of Austin's most interesting people speak on a variety of subjects - and then ask them tough questions. Our speakers are insightful, engaging leaders in their respective fields. As a Member of MBC, we welcome your speaker and topic suggestions. (Just click on the Suggestion Box on this website)

Our topics
Enlightening . . . often entertaining.
At the MBC, you get to hear topics ranging from transportation to taxes, football to finances, high tech to highways, literature to legislative issues, energy to entertainment, community growth to child development - stick around long enough and you'll soon learn what's really going on in Austin, Central Texas and beyond.

Our relationships
We are a unique membership organization.
At the MBC, friendships abound. We are not a high-pressure leads club, but everyone is encouraged to trade cards and do business in the pleasant atmosphere we offer. Join us to chat over a cup of coffee, find out more about your neighbor at the table, and remind us what you do in the Member/Guest intro session. Our online Membership Directory also offers you a chance to market your business to the club, and to the community at large.

Our membership
Guests quickly discover we are an open, outgoing group.
Our membership is a cross-section of Austin's business and professional community. It runs the gamut - from attorneys to accountants, entrepreneurs to engineers, high tech to high rollers, hotel managers to hair designers, realtors to retailers, bankers to business consultants, and advertising to association executives.
