The Plain (Closed)

A simple and stylish looking place from outside. It is located in the middle of a row of shophouses, next to the Tanjong Pagar Community Centre, within walking distance from the Tanjong Pagar MRT Station. At 10am in the morning, the cafe is crowded but still we managed to get a big table at the back of the cafe. Have a kind of cozy feeling, as if we are dining in a private room. Menu is available on the board, so no menu will be given to you at the table.Darling's Eggs ($7.50/ single slice, $14.

Plain toast with earl grey jam, normal jam and butter $6. Iced Generra $7The plain toast was chosen by my bf because he wanted something to go with the coffee. I find it not worth the $6 paid as it was very ordinary. The toast was served warm though which was good. The earl grey jam had a rather subtle taste of earl grey and it definitely would have been better if the taste was stronger. The iced generra was good but I prefer the hot version. Service was friendly overall.

After our team lunch, we decided to have some coffee & dessert before heading back to office. One of my colleague recommended to have it at the plain. It is along the street along craig road. It was kind of not that "obvious" cause i barely see the cafe even though i was just directly opposite it. Ice Mocha - Quite disappointed with the drink. It was too bitter for me even though it had some chocolate syrup in it. I also found it too thick .

I am not too sure why they name their cafe The Plain. But it was indeed so plain outside that I missed it twice. I was trying to look for it and walked past 2 times and still cannot find it. My sister had to come out of the cafe before I can be "transported" into the plain cafe. It's actually a very cosy joint. Pretty relaxed to be sitting in there and enjoying a cup of my favourite mocha. I love the way it was being presented. Not your usual latte art. With the chocolate smudged all over the cu

It was my first and last time at The Plain. It is nested at a stretch of shop houses and next door neighbour is an antique shop. There was a crowd of white collar workers from nearby offices sipping their coffees and talking shop early in the morning. You may have to sit at the communal table if there are no tables left. We ordered half a dean's toast and half ham and cheese (darlings) ..both with eggs. Each costing $6 is really on the steep side!! I mean i can easily make these at home. It was

/One of those hidden shophouses. I guess it caters affordable food for residents living around tanjong pagar area. The menu style is similar to Wild Honey where we read the items off a printed menu that’s displayed on a big board and leaned against the wall.The half dean’s breakfast $6 NETT. I think it’s cheese and mushrooms. A little salty! My half darling eggs $6.50 NETT. Just egg, ham, cheese, tomato. Too normal… no unique taste. Its name is cute though.The Plain played loud music early in th

Randomly walking at tanjong pagar and decided to try The Plain! I didn't realise that they only had breakfast menu only when I saw the menu. They do not have menus like booklets, but on a wall instead. The staff were all very friendly and even gave quite a few recommendations for us to try. We went ahead with Egg Mayo, Dean's breakfast and Iced chocolate. They have servings of small and large and I find that to be quite good! We ordered small for both dishes. Egg mayo was nice! How wrong can you

The Plain does really good coffee at reasonable prices. The service staff are fairly young but make an effort to chat. Service is warm. The menu is pretty basic. I had a half darlings, which meant a poached egg atop a slice of cheese and vegemite toast. Very simple. They also have other more filling sandwiches available, like the ciabatta and pastrami. However, the ordering system is a bit different. You need to go up to the counter when you're done and recount the items you've ordered from them

Ever walked into a café and wished you were the one living in it? The Plain is the kind of place that does the magic. Located in the conservation area of Tanjong Pagar just a short walk away from the MRT exit, this two-month-old Melbourne-inspired café serves an all-day breakfast menu amid simple yet chic décor.Start it off with a cuppa Genovese coffee (from $2.80) made the way you like it, your perfect mate for a morning perk-up or lazy afternoon sip.
