Good place to have brunch or tea. I haven't really tried them out during normal meal times but their brunch menu is fantastic and their tea time menu is great as well. We have been to their outlets at Dempsey, Mandarin Gallery and recently to the one at Ion Orchard. Their freshly made tomato sauce is fantastic as well.

My friend treated me to this cafe for lunch yesterday, as I wanted something light for lunch. We both shared a pie, which was really meaty and crunchy, and a Classic Caesar Salad, which was really huge, as it was in meal size. Surprisingly, their salad comes with a poached egg, with egg yolks coming out, rather than just the... More

Been here now a few times, to meet a colleague for breakfast, for brucnh with friends & for afternoon tea with family & on all occassions enjoyed the food, drink, and ambience. The service isnt the speediest in the world & the car parking can be a little annoying, but its a good place to meet & chat & the... More

The brunch menu is pathetically small and narrow of choice, eggs or burger really. The service was so very slow. The only bonus was it was a rainy day so sitting outdoors was lovely (inside was a cacophony of noise), until the smokers showed up to stand outside the art gallery to have their fix. We spent 27 per person,... More

I've only been here on weekdays for brunch or lunch. It's consistently good service and food. It can get crowded late morning/lunch with the expat spouses or lunching crowd. The tables outside are nice and there are fans above the terrace but of course it is Singapore and still hot! Inside is nice and has long tables which you will... More

LOTS of nice stuff here. Sea salt, wonderful selection of cheeses, chocolate snacks for the kids. For us though, the pasta selections are great. One of our favourite shops in SIngapore!

Ate at Jones the Grocer (Dempsey) for Sunday brunch. The service is very good and the atmosphere is nice with regards to the decor and the location in Dempsey. The majority of the tables are long benches so unless you come in a group of 8, you will likely be sitting with others. If you are a group of more... More

Open for breakfast and lunch for meals. Amazing variety of cheeses in a specially allocated cool room. Great selection of speciality groceries.

In a city somewhat oblivious to what exactly good means in combination with the word coffee, this is one of the very few shining beacons of hope. Food is also good, in particular for breakfast. Unfortunately the service is very hit and miss, and usually the latter.

This place serves a good selection of foods as long as you have an open mind to just get up and choose ... just sitting and using the menu isn't the way to go. Its a relaxed place away from the crowds though as Singapores population continues to increase then so does the 'body traffic' at these places. When this... More
