u know it’s good when u nearly cried after finding out it closed down 😭😭😭 just wanna do a review anyway for the memories
they have sweet & savory options for the French toast; I’ve tried both. The sweet one comes with lots of berries, the savory one has BACON STRIPS and yes I prefer the savory French toast! The bacon went really well with the sweetness of the maple syrup
AND the toast itself was super fluffy and warm with a slight crisp on the outside. an absolute masterpiece. I’m honestly so sad it closed down 😭
I come to ronin every so often (as the title indicates) and it’s kinda a hit and miss with the scrambled eggs. I used to think the scrambled eggs were like the best in Singapore because it was runny like the Gordon ramsay style (if you know you know). But these days, it’s only like that half the time. Mushroom, bread and drinks are still good tho.
Although its called Savoury French Toast, its more of a sweet and salty meal. The toast with butter and syrup is so yummy I wouldn’t mind if they just gave me more of that. At first I found the braised apple kinda weird, but it cuts through the oily and saltiness of the bacon so it becomes a cycle of sweet and salty which is nice.
Ronin has the best toast so far. This cheese toast combined with 3 different kind of Cheese is insane . Coffee at there are awesome
Chocolate + Coffee + Mint = Wicked Mocha
Never tried this drink anywhere before so definitely try it while you drop Ronin! It’s wickedly effective to wake me up from my morning sleepyhead.
I really the ambience, especially the huge table where 10 people can sit together. Best place to have morning conversation with some interesting strangers. No wonder this place is super popular within expats community.
Ronin's famous wicked mocha ($6) is a charming blend of mint and mocha — in a way that tastes like atas liquefied peppermint chocolate.

The mocha base itself was smooth and had a lighter coffee taste and instead leaned towards a richer chocolate-forward profile, which made for a good match for the subtle but still noticeable kick of mint.

The scrambled eggs here are really creamy and well done - but yet I feel that this dish as a whole wasn’t particularly mind-blowing. The toast was pretty boring and the portobellos weren’t the tastiest - but I must still say i love that Ronin is pretty value for money for brunch in town, and I’d still recommend it.
The texture of the French toast was amazing - so soft and thick yet not too cloying. There was a huge dollop of mascarpone cream, as well as a really fresh-tasting berry compote and pistachio crumble. Probably one of the best French toasts I’ve ever had.
Wicked Mocha (~$6), a mint mocha, had a strong mint taste which hit you the second you taste it 🍃🍃 It was like a mint chocolate in a coffee, and I liked the balance of sweet/minty!

Savoury French Toast (~$16) consisting of braised apple and bacon, was heavenly 🤤 Ridiculously pillowy and fluffy in the centre, the egginess added greatly to the soft and wobbly texture of the French toast 🍞 Hazelnut butter and bacon gave that slight salty contrast to the sweetened French toast drenched in maple syrup 😋😋 Only comment was that the toast did get slightly inconsistent (not fluffy all the way) and some parts were harder

Scrambled Eggs & Bacon on Toast $15
Wicked (Signature Minted Mocha) $6
Are they the best scrambled eggs in Singapore? Nah. Quite good - needs more seasoning - although not the best. The scrambled eggs are creamy with a tofu like texture but rather bland. Just some more salt and pepper would have helped greatly. The toast are well toasted and are decent bread.
Added wilted spinach for a balance diet (carbs+protein+fibre right) and I think they don’t really go well with the other components. Basically boiled spinach with salt.
The portions are huge, filling and reasonably priced (nett) for cafe food. I prefer their french toasts to scrambled eggs on toast.
Servers are very friendly. Very crowded and noisy on weekends so not ideal for big groups but quiet and dark on weekday. Good for solo emo time
You won’t go wrong if you go for the scrambled eggs here! Served with house made sourdough and seeded toast. The egg is smooth, buttery and creamy. Plenty of add on options if you are feeling ravenous!!
Soaked oats with chia, topped with yogurt and sliced grapes. Very nourishing and healthy breakfast to kickstart the day!
Hands-down one of the best coffee experiences i’ve had! The refreshing mint and hint of chocolate complemented the velvety Wicked coffee perfectly! Will definitely be back for more!
Second time here and Ronin never ceases to amaze me with their fuss-free, affordable brunch offerings. Average spend per person is likely $15 or so - I ordered scrambled eggs on toast with portobello and one flat white, and it only amounted to $15.50 after GST (no service charge - bonus points). The scrambled eggs are incredibly smooth and creamy and the juicy portobello mushroom was a dream. A classic brunch spot indeed.
Toast with eggs start at $11, but don’t be fooled. Prices are not cheap as add-ons averages at $4 per pop.
The generra is a mocha with orange peel and my goodness it’s the best thing you’ll ever have. Save the calories you are thinking of for dessert and get this instead please.
One of the smoothest, creamiest scrambled eggs I’ve had in Singapore. Goes well with the bacon. However the price is quite high for such a simple dish.
