Chanced upon a blog entry of this place and was instantly intrigued due to its relatively near location to our home. Bishan Park?! We didn't know there was such a nice-looking cafe there, other than their highly popular neighbour i.e. Canopy.This cafe is located in an entirely separate part of the park, all on its own amidst lush greenery and placid pools. As we reached the cafe during a somewhat non-peak timing (10am+), we were seated immediately...but no menus were given to us for a full 10 mi
This cafe is located in an entirely separate part of the park, all on its own amidst lush greenery and placid pools.
As we reached the cafe during a somewhat non-peak timing (10am+), we were seated immediately...but no menus were given to us for a full 10 mins before the somewhat inexperienced service staff were alerted.
We had the truffle egg cocotte, GRUB Breakfast Set as well as the GRUB cheeseburger. To us, the food was average (nothing to shout about or scramble down for a return visit) - there are definitely better choices for brunch. The service, as said, leaves much to be desired, probably due to the new-ness of it all.
But I really liked the decor and laid-back ambience (pets are welcome!) of this place, and the open-ness of its location. One can even imagine one is in some Aussie cafe! And what better way to work off those foodstuffs by a walk around the park just around?
I would go back another time, just for the location... and probably the coffee.
