The baristas share their passion for coffee with customers both from Japan and from abroad as they go about their day. It is their aim to make coffee a part of customers’ daily lives just as much as it is a part of theirs.
For those who love coffee and enjoy cafe hopping, I bet that Baristart is something that cannot be missing out from your list for they are the first c
Cream puff's pretty good. Reminded me of those from Beard Papa.
All in all, I like the novelty of this joint, as it’s really quite different from the neighbors, and the menu concept paired with mixologist concoctions, makes this a nice place for revisits at different times of the day.
Kafe Utu managed to live up to my low expectations, seeing how this is the first African cafe I've seen in my whole life here and they managed to hit home with the ambiance, dish curation and service.
I foresee this space to survive Singapore’s competitive culinary scene in years to come, as it provides both great food and good vibes.
Overall, I like the new version of Sichuan Alley. I feel the dishes served are more affordable, comforting and can be enjoyed regularly. I recommend the noodles, braised beef with bamboo shoots, mini hotpot and fried pig intestines. Cheers!!
Ambience at Sichuan Alley is casual and relaxing. Styled like a traditional noodle house, the cafe-lounge is warmly lit, with traditional lanterns hanging from the ceiling.

Prices are comparable to other cafes, budget about SGD $22 per person.
Bearded Bella is influenced by the Melbourne Cafe culture and is opened early 2018 along Craig Road.
Bearded Bella is a cosy casual eatery with good coffee, wholesome food and good company.
Barramundi not bad.
While Sarnies does fantastic sandwiches, their dinner options were terribly mediocre. The concept was great, and the menu sounded real tempting, but the execution was found wanting.
Tasty, Value For Money Brunch & Good Coffee Overall: 7 Ambience & Setting: 6 Food & Beverage: 7 Service: 5 Value for Money: 7 Spent about SGD $27 per person
I wouldn’t specially crave for the Kaya toast from Tong Ah given that there are so many other convenient local chains which serve this dish. That said, if you are in the Keong Saik vicinity or having a staycation at Kesa House, this is one good and cheap local breakfast option.
来到牛车水，不妨来这里吃一个早餐，感受一下当地人的风土人情吧！
Tong Ah Eating House also serves Crispy Thin Toast Kaya, French Toast with Kaya and Steamed Bread with Kaya (S$4.90).
Though prices at Common Man Stan isn’t cheap, for the quality and taste versus price, service and ambience, I am willing to pay the premium.
Well, it turns out that there was booth seating in the back, complete with full table service. And the food was pretty good too, featuring a lot of fresh, local ingredients that were seasoned just right, making me very happy with that Veggie Wonderland plate above.
I'll highly recommend this cafe for a coffee or even breakfast and I heard they also have a late afternoon high tea set.
Voyage Patisserie is a cosy space that can fit around 30 to 40 people.
My lunch at Voyage Patisserie was rather delightful. I liked the space and the fact that it was not crowded and noisy on a weekday.
The patisserie was not as refine as I expected. I am comparing them to the authentic French Patisserie standard.
Nice woody and milky latte, with a bit of acidity lending some character.
There is no shortage of aesthetically pleasing cafes in Tanjong Pagar, as many coffeehouses call the Duxton area home. There’s Parallel Coffee Roasters , Bearded Bella, and Butler Koffee all within walking distance of each other.
All in all, this is a pretty chill place to catch a breather at when you’re overwhelmed with work.
The minced braised pork was really dark and savoury, full of a strong and complex soy sauce and herbal flavours, comprising a good balance of lean and fatty pork. The mee sua was soft, gooey, almost totally disintegrated and seriously garlicky, with plump fresh oysters. Nice stuff.
Selling affordable and authentic Taiwanese dishes, Want Food Taiwanese Delights is helmed by a Taiwanese Couple who moved here 5 years ago.
Overall, the dishes I had at Want Food Taiwanese Delights are good and I do want to head back, even for the same dishes. Prices are affordable and portions are relatively generous, this is a must check out if you love a causal Taiwanese meal.
Elijah Pies Tanjong Pagar review with pictures of food menu and drinks list, cafe interior and Nutella pie, wild berry pie and savoury pies .
Whether you’re looking for a sweet treat to satisfy your cravings, or a savoury pie to warm your soul, Elijah Pies has something for everyone. This might just become your new favourite coffee break spot in Tanjong Pagar.
Great addition to Tanjong Pagar which already has no lack of cafes, though this might just be the only pie-focused cafe in this area for now. I like the cosy and homely vibes which is a stark contrast to the busy Tanjong Pagar Road, and it is also great that there are a mix of savoury and sweet pies on the menu.
Despite its boastful name, Genius Central serves a variety of food that is both delicious and healthy.
Food at Genius Central Singapore is Modern Western and Modern Asian cuisine, focusing on healthy, wholesome meals. Clearly designed for the health-conscious crowd, but not intimidating for the rest of us, the menu is wonderfully inclusive, with options for gluten-free, nut-free, dairy-free, vegetarian, and vegan.
These cakes are available in-store and online. Satisfy your sweet tooth and try out their newly-released goodies!
I definitely see myself returning to the cafe soon for a warm cup of latte and more of their exquisite cakes.
Overall, I felt that LUNA is great for dates, weekday pick me ups or just casual chill out sessions.
The re-opening of Maxi Coffee Bar this October at their new location and home at 6 Ann Siang Hill is a relatively low key affair, which is also charming in its own way. In any case, Maxi Coffee Bar has always exuded that indie coffee vibe for me, and that spirit is reflective in their new location.
Small lovely place, good coffee, friendly people.
This Satay is as legendary as hawker legends gets!
Note that there is no air conditioning in this cafe and you have to climb a flight of stairs to reach Upper Barracks.
Overall, I do like the old school dining vibe at 195 Pearl Hill Cafe, which is definitely one of a kind in Singapore and a solid example of a successful destination dining.
There are endless reasons to fall in love with this charming cafe—every element of Shop Wonderland Cafe & Floral Studio was executed flawlessly and with elegance.
The best dish of the day was the Thai Green Curry pasta ($14). This was a pleasant dish. Pasta with chicken curry is unusual but the curry was quite mild and the combination was a successful one.
Overall, this place is a good option for sugar rush in the Telok Ayer area but note that prices are not cheap.
It is combination of roasted pumpkin, green beans, pickled beetroot, quinoa, dried cranberries, sprouts, avocado and roast pumpkin seeds, all tossed in a whey dressing.
The Sauteed King Oyster Mushrooms & Bacon ($8) was lovely, the crisp of the bacon a wonderful contrast against the springy juiciness of the mushrooms.

The cafe has been converted from a Wedding / Bridal Photography Shop in late year of 2014. Interior is out of my expectation.
Overall, we enjoy our tasting at Chocoelf speciality café and learn more about their creations. As homegrown chocolate-maker, they are inspired to incorporate local flavours into their product. Some of them we like, some we don’t. Since taste is subjective, do visit Chocoelf to try out their product.
So the mechanical sounding name here apparently comes from the fact that they used to be an events space with a cafe attached (181 South Bridge Road #01-05, 6222-2554).
It still tasted fine.
