Tiong Bahru Bakery, Singapore
Tiong Bahru Bakery by Gontran Cherrier & Spa Esprit Group came highly recommended by a couple of friends when they learnt that I was one a cafe-hopping quest.
This one at the corner of Eng Hoon Street in the up-and-coming expats enclave of Tiong Bahru, is one of three outlets in the chain. The other two are in Tangs Orchard and Raffles City.
It was full-house when we were there for brunch. I would say that without a menu, and yet with so many choices of sandwiches, pastries and coffee, the experience could be overwhelming.
First, you need to queue at the counter, give the food and drink choices a glance and make your order. Then find your table, if there’s any seat left! Yes, that’s how popular the artisan bakery is.
I am not someone who likes to dine at a crowded place, or have the patience to wait to be served. But to really try the food (and coffee) here, one trip is definitely insufficient.
And so, I reserve my comments, although Wei Sim said to try the squid ink buns!

wow so many food to eat in Singapore. Hoping to go soon, still saving money as passport also expired.
Im pretty sure the bread prepared there are really fresh from the oven. WOOHOO. Adding this to my list of places to visit when im in Singapore.
I love the old type of boutique eatery
Always have the best food
Thanks for the sharing
Think I’ll go check out the one in Orchard when I head down in 2 weeks time. Looks exciting.
i love going to bakeries, get carried away with all the amazing food and delicious pastries.
Looks nice! The restaurant is so full during brunch time 🙂
Love how the building and the display counter looks like. Although I’m not a coffee person but wouldn’t mind to just hang out here and catch up with friends.
I visited Singapore b4.. There are many food restaurants so we don’t know which is one best. All things always change when their country improved so every time. I will try Tiong bahru bakery! 😉 nice coffee..
it does look really crowded. But hey, where there’s good food, the crowd is usually there too!
an exception to this rule: some are just overrated, made for tourists fare.
another place i can explore when I am in Singapore next time. Thank you for sharing this 🙂
The bakery looks so warm and inviting with all those delicious breads and pastries 🙂
If I am not mistaken I have visited the Tiong Bahru before. The pastries is nice and they have many choices.
