Located in the sweet area of the leafy Bukit Timah region, Cluny Court boasts interesting boughties, home decor shops, excellent coffee and brunch spots, and more. For your ultimate guide to Cluny Court in Singapore, from the best shops, eats, and things to do, read on.
Where is Cluny Court?
The name says it all - bread lovers out there, you can get your fix at Simply Bread. You’ll find in-house baked ciabatta, rye, sourdough, and more. Stay for a coffee, a sweet treat, or a larger meal, like a nourishing sandwich or even a hot pizza.
Of course, you can get an assortment of delicious affogato here, but the menu also has a lot more. There’s a range of delicious hot and cold specialty drinks (coffee and non-coffee), chocolatey desserts, and baked goods. Not a sweet tooth? No worries! You can also get savory salads and bagels for brunch.
You can get your hands on some classic swiss rolls like their choc hazelnut and caramel biscoff, but that’s not all this sweetshop is popular for. Their croon-style round croissants are deliciously tempting, with flavors like loaded pistachio, super summer berries, even a savory ham N’Cheez option. This is a great place for a sweet pick-me-up or to get a box to go and bring back to your loved ones.
Freshly baked cakes, cupcakes, and creamy coffee and tea are Plain Vanilla’s specialties. Their Cluny Court store is one of six locations you can find in Singapore - that’s how popular these cupcakes are. They also have a selection of groceries in-store from their grocery brand Plain Vanilla Foods. A sweet treat while you pick up some essentials? Yes, please!
Enjoy gourmet burgers and other hearty brunch foods (yes, including your fave pasta dishes) at Relish in Cluny Court. Willin Low, the Chef of its parent restaurant, Wild Rocket, says he loves to “take apart traditional dishes, reassemble them, and turn them on their head.” You’ll find this type of classic food with modern twists on the menu at Relish. Primarily, the burgers are what people come for, so if you do like burgers, be sure to try their top picks, like the blue cheese and pear burger.
Sit yourself down in the morning sun as you dine in the alfresco area of Da Paolo Gastronomia. They have deli food, takeaway options, and al la carte dining, as well as gourmet produce and all-natural groceries to browse as you wait for your meal. If you feel like staying for dessert, their Nutella Cake is a must-try.
Although you can order some delicious cakes and sweets at Ollella, you can also get a lunch fix with some traditional Singaporean dishes on their hot food menu. You’ll find dishes like Lontong Sayur, Nasi Lemak, and much more at an affordable price. The dine-in area is small, but you can also take it away if you want to get some food on your way home after a big day of exploring.
Get your eco-sustainable goods from Kilogramme, where you can get bulk goods for your home without single-use plastics. Stock up on your superfoods, grains, nuts, tea, local produce, and other home essentials here.
