Sandwich fillings include turkey, stuffed tomatoes, salad, and was topped off with dijonnaise sauce. There were fries on the side as well. I couldn’t help but feel like I was eating a subway sandwich unfortunately, at least it was yummy, but not worth the price.
For drinks - we got Chandler Bing (City Roasted) Latte ($8), and Chandler Bing Friendspuccino (Maple Toffee, Chocolate ice cream, Cinnamon & Soy Milk, $10). We chose these drinks based on their ingredients, not the character :P Drinks were good.
Overall the food here was average but pricey, $21 before GST for a subway-like sandwich didn’t impress me. Though this is to be expected - you kind of pay for the set up of the cafe, it’s great for fans of F.R.I.E.N.D.S.
The menu is crafted based on the characters from the show, and you can roam around in the cafe to take pictures with sets from the show.
Your standard eggs benedict with mentaiko hollandaise sauce on top of poached eggs on toast. There were a few slices of smoked duck on the side as well.
Food was alright but pricey, as it was quite a small serving for $22 before GST. Though this is to be expected - you kind of pay for the set up of the cafe, it’s great for fans of F.R.I.E.N.D.S.

It’s A Beautiful Cafe (if You are a F.R.I.E.N.D.S series fan), They have created a separate space from the dining area where You can Click Pictures... Covers all major aspects of the series. Coffee Is not Bad Too.. speaking about the food, Joey’s meatlover Pizza $28 is Very yum And Have A lot of toppings .. Alejandro calamari Was Not that great... Its Price Was $14.. overall full marks For the ambience 😊
The cafe is big and not crowded, even on Christmas Eve. We ordered some sides (Tarter Tots, Joey’s Chicken Wings), pizzas (Joey’s meatlover pizza, Barbados pizza) and alcohol (double chocolate beer and Ross Dinosaur). The food is not bad but the variety of food is very limited. You can find more selection for their drinks. Nevertheless, it is a nice place to chill with friends as there is many available seats and you can also watch some episodes of FRIENDS there.
P/S: I like how they name their foods and drinks according to the characters in FRIENDS.
The first thing I noticed about this dish was the smell of truffles. The sauce was nice and cheesy, and the truffle oil went well with it - I ended up scraping the pan to get every last bit of sauce.
That said, I still think $15 is pricey, especially since it was a side (and not a big portion).
This mac & cheese ($15) was very creamy and the oat crust was really fragrant. The two flavours went well together and it was quite enjoyable.
This pasta ($32) was pretty flavourful with spicy lobster sauce. It comes with small lobster, prawns and crab meat. It was good but I thought that the lobster serving was a bit too little for the price of the dish.
The One with Eggs from Chick & Duck, Mentaiko Hollandaise, Toast & Smoked Duck.
A pity for it could have been yummy had the salt been controlled. The portion was more generous than expected, coming in a big hot plate ⚠️ Overpriced food but not overhyped. For fans of FRIENDS, the cafe provides the best photo ops (think classic sofa in Central Perk & Monica's kitchen), and good atmosphere what with episodes being screened on a big projector screen

Super fan of the series and finally, I visited there ^^
Ordered a Ross Thanksgiving Sandwich ($21) & Phoebe Buffay Hazelnut Latte ($8)
All I can say is the sandwich's savoury and the latte's good. Together they make up a great lunch while watching FRIENDS episodes there
Pricey? Yes. Worth it? So much worth ^u^
After a lot of hype, Central Perk SG has finally opened its doors — hurray for diehard fans of F.R.I.E.N.D.S.! Designed to look like the set of the hit American sitcom, the themed cafe has various iconic corners set up, including Monica's kitchen, Chandler and Joey's foosball table and, of course, the orange sofa. In a space modelled after the main characters' favourite cafe hangout, it's de rigueur to have a coffee. Choose from six different blends (from $4), each named after one of the main characters. The illustrated coffee menu should help you make your choice, but it may be more fun to pick based on your favourite character. Rachel Green, anyone? The food selection stays in line with the theme, with dishes like Janice's Oh My God Baby Back Ribs ($39), You're My Lobster Salad ($32), Monica's Lasagne ($26) and Mrs Braverman's Cheesecake ($16). Prices are definitely on the high side but hey, nobody said a F.R.I.E.N.D.S.-themed nostalgia would be cheap. Pro-tip: It gets really packed on the weekends, so come by on a weekday instead.
Avg Price: $40 per person

The cheesecake itself was soft and surrenderingly mousse-y, whilst elsewhere the tart lemony top added a gentle, non-intrusive zing. 3.8/5 ⠀ ⠀ ⠀
This was a hosted meal, courtesy of Central Perk Singapore.
The menu consists of coffee, cocktails and dishes inspired from Friends characters and iconic Friends moments (which means non-fans would probably not get quite as much from the experience). The museum features set ups based on the various characters (the Phoebe room is insane), and the entire Central Perk interior complete with signature couch is lovingly replicated for your Jennifer Aniston-apeing, hair tossing and "candid" laughing photo opportunities. As a hardcore fan, am I impressed with the execution? Yes. Although some aspects are still work-in-progress, the cafe is clearly a work of love, and it shows in the details and execution of it all. I'd be back for Huggsy.
Generous ingredients in the Joeys Fisherman stew.
Mussels, scallop, prawns, octopus & grilled fish.
Savoury sauce.
Spectacular presentation of Ross Thanksgiving Sandwich.
Tender turkey meat & straight fries.
Satisfying portion.
Giant cup of Joey Tribbiani Americano.
Really can relax and enjoy.
Loved the music here.
Really enjoyed the cheesy & slightly charred mac&cheese. Love how their coffee blends are based on the characters of Friends! Tried the Chandler & indeed it was smoky and strong just like him 😊 Cant wait to head back & try the other coffee blends!
