Delicious mains and desserts! Hearty portion that's good for sharing if you would like a variety of food to taste and try. Can get little overwhelming on crowded days, the premise setup makes the atmosphere noisy like a school canteen. Fastest eyes/wheels first, to get a roadside parking lot. Be mindful of your parking timing while you are enjoy the food!

Glad they moved to city area :) Finally get to visit them again. Coffee is good here. I requested for double shot, 5oz. Coffee came hot, strong and full of aroma. They have an excellent variety of brunch food as well. Sat at the bar counter and enjoyed my time there. When I visited yesterday, there was a collaboration with Tanamera coffee. So there was free tasting of their capsules. The owner/boss was really friendly and shared that they will start to serve dinner during Ramadan month. Food will be more African style. He even showed us the menu. I’ll definitely be back.

P.U. is nearby to my office where colleagues & me always fixed our coffee cravings after lunch e v e r y T G I F !!! ☕️ 5-7 oz. various are very accommodating too… Just had my first dining-in experience recently and food was awesome too! That explains how it is always crowded even on any weekday. Keep it up and we will see you again the very next TGIF 😉✋🏻

Beef cheek eggs Ben is nicely done. The beef cheeks tender goes well with the eggs and bread. Croissant Wich was nice as well. Iced mocha is quite usual though it comes in a small glass jar. Now for the bad..lipstick stain was found on the cups(see 1st photo) and sitting on pebbles next to the kitchen is not really comfortable.

I loved this little spot for brunch. Great vibe and loved the decor. Super friendly and helpful waitstaff. I think I had the Turkish eggs and they were great. The Benedict was nice too. Loved the coffee. Highly recommend!

Food was great. Enjoyed the chicken and waffles. The iced tea-strawberry kiwi was not worth it as it was just like fruit punch. However, as we were seated upstairs, service was not so good/slow and they even missed a drink order that was already ordered.. Also the sound system is too loud making it difficult to have conversations.

I visited the space on Sunday, made the booking and was placed upstairs for our group. The area is a little dusty and the place gets very echoey when it’s filled with guests as the place itself is very hard, in the box. The place does have anything soft to absorb the sound from the bouncing around. Food was average, not what I remember I had many years back. Back then was way better and the flavours now are just meh. Overall service is cheerful and attentive. Only wish there was some housekeeping and lastly, the food to pay a little more attention to details.

I went there for a quick coffee while waiting for my massage session nearby. I love the atmosphere, the music frequency that they’re playing is positive and inspiring. NICE🩷 The coffee is good too. But I don’t like the floor😤 I almost tripped twice because of the uneven surface although the design is pretty creative.

During my stay in Singapor I went to this cafe everyday to have breakfast. They make very nice coffee and food. Very friendly staffs and I highly recommend them.

Wasn’t expecting most of the ingredients in my egg Benedict with smoked salmon were raw, the salmon slices in particular. The sourdough bread was nice and so were the eggs. My friend’s French toasts looked great and tasted great in the first few bites, however, it turned out to be too sweet in the end. Oh, and some of the most popular dishes were sold out before 9:30 in the morning and I wondered why, considering the shop stayed open for many following hours. Lastly, it was a bit crowded and noisy as the seats were close to one another. The staff was friendly and kept recommending their freshly-baked pastries, which my friend and I never tried.

Nice little café with good food. Of course it’s on the pricier side but it’s Singapore so that tracks. I like that they had a healthy food options. But the ambience is just basic.

tucked away in an unassuming corner, we visited twice, once for brunch — was unexpectedly surprised by the nice food — and returned for dinner. the brunch menu was good and tasty but had an overwhelming amount of eggs. the octopus pasta is really good, perfectly creamy and had a strong dried octopus undertone. the portabello sando was a let down, literally a deep fried portabello only. plating was good but was expecting some accompanying ingredients like bread/egg (why is it called a sando with no bread?) drinks were a miss.

What a nice experience of dining here. This cafe was on my list for a long time. Finally get to try it. Had their chicken and waffles and the iced mocha. Both are amazing. The service is also great! Eventhough they are full house, they make sure to give customers a good service. Will come back and recommend.

Very good experience. We came hungry and the place met all expectations. Very good coffee and excellent food, with good portions and very good value for money. Thanks to the waiter we were able to choose our dish very well and he recommended us excellently. The flavors of the dish were very good like everything we tried. highly recommended.

First time going to Singapore for Eras Tour! Good thing this location is near our hotel (Hotel Boss). Good food! The food portion is big enough for a meal brunch. The food tastes fresh, fresh is probably my best compliment I can tell with the flavors! Sourdough bread also baked fresh from their local bakery Fluffy I think. Should check that out also! The owner Mous is a nice guy, had a great talk on locally owned shops with him and his wife! They're assigned also at the dressing room for Eras Tour to serve coffee! Damn that's so cool 🤣 he even got the access pass ID! Good people the vibes and atmosphere is great. Nice to get food and dine-in outside. Good to meet locals here in Singapore! Sometimes the place gets busy and sometimes it's for a good chill sit down. My girlfriend really enjoyed the food and loves it here! We'll definitely be back! 👌

The waffles had a crispy texture and were accompanied by dried fried chicken and sweet sauce, but I found the combination personally odd. The portion of the Doria seemed small for one person, consisting essentially of tomato sauce with cheese, a piece of toasted bread, and five meatballs, with nothing noteworthy to mention about the dish. The ambiance of the shop was undoubtedly pleasant, given its café setting, which may have contributed to the higher-end pricing of the food.

Such a lovely find! The breakfast and drinks came quickly and were amazing! Definitely try the turkish eggs :)) Definitely recommend if you’re looking for a nice chilled breakfast spot. The staff were super helpful with giving recommendations for our time in Singapore too! :)

Must make reservations to ensure you get a seat. Ordering system could be better instead of getting a staff to take it maybe a QR code system. Drinks are served quite quickly within 10-15 mins. Great coffee very balance, could be a tad stronger. Expect to wait 20-30 mins for food. Toast burnt food was cold. :( the sausage great. The beef cheeks delicious. could put in effort in making the beans in own sauce or something. the If you bring kids pls provide own entertainment

Great atmosphere with indoor and outdoor seatings. It's one of the coffee places that is visited by many cyclist's. Food was solid - the Mediterranean was a unique twist to the regular English Big breakfast. Penny's scrambled was good too!
