Cafe/Brunch

A newly opened bakery/ cafe in tiong bahru, specializing in cakes, cupcakes and macaroons. Whole and sliced cakes are available. Nicely done place, not many seats, lovely rooftop for cool evenings.

An absolutely gorgeous place for weekend brunch, or dinner and drinks with the girls, Skyve serves great food in a relaxed yet classy ambience. Think sous vide eggs benedict, truffle fries, duck confit, beef short ribs- in a large space with turquoise chairs and white tables.

First day of opening, and we couldn't wait to be the first customers! ;) Happy to have a neat little cafe so near home. Lovely decor, but very limited items on the menu for now, shall check back again soon.

With a consistently high standards of food at good value, it's no surprise D.O.C is packed to the brim on weekends (make reservations). Go for the buttermilk waffles if you're in the mood for something sweet, or the breakfast platter that never fails to please. Now serving dinners on Thursdays and Fridays, you can come by after work for a comforting, rustic meal. Photo by Charlene Tan

Alternatively, come by for a couple of Happy Hour pints after work! Photo by Votrex Tan

This newly opened cafe in Clarke Quay certainly brightens up your mood with their vibrant yellow cups and cheerful ambience. They serve premium coffee pulled from the top-of-the-line La Marzocco Strada machine, along with simple pastries, waffles and ciabatta lunch sets.

It's no surprise Ronin serves the best coffee in town, along with sister cafes The Plain and The Bravery.

Go for the French toast, and if you're up for something new, try the Wicked - a genius concoction of mint, chocolate and coffee that comforts your insides like no other. Photo by Alain Foodology
