Fika Swedish Cafe Bistro
You know that feeling when you walk into a space and immediately feel yourself relax? That’s Fika in Kampong Glam—a Swedish-inspired cafe that’s been quietly doing its thing for years. The meatballs, with that tangy lingonberry jam, are something you’ll come back for. So is the pancake stack, fluffy and generous. It’s a good spot for a long catch-up with a friend, or just reading a book on a lazy afternoon.
If you’re after a quiet, unpretentious meal that doesn’t skimp on flavour, this is your spot. The minimalist decor means you can actually hear each other talk. They open from 11am daily and stay till 10pm (11pm on weekends), so it works for a late lunch too.
- Address: 257 Beach Road, Singapore 199539
- Hours: Sun–Thu 11:00 AM – 10:00 PM; Fri–Sat 11:00 AM – 11:00 PM
- Price: Mid-range, with hearty mains that feel worth it
- Website: fikacafe.com
Post up with a book for an afternoon and nobody blinks—that’s the unspoken rule in this part of town. Come on a weekday if you really want the space to yourself. The cosy corners make it a solid choice for a quiet heart-to-heart too.
Good Bites
Good Bites is the kind of place you land at when dinner has turned into a full-on hangout and you’re not ready to go home. The open-air terrace at Bishan Sports Hall stays open till 5am, which is rare for a halal spot. Their Tom Yum Seafood Pasta sounds gimmicky but actually works—spicy, creamy, and satisfying. Grab a mini milkshake to go with it.
It’s casual, it’s breezy, and prices won’t make you wince. The view over the sports field adds to the chill vibe, especially in the evening. Great for a big group because you can chope a long table and order a bunch of burgers and pastas to share.

When the night’s not over and you’re not ready to head home, this is the spot you think of. The late hours are gold for halal supper runs—just remember to bring a light jacket if you’re sensitive to the breeze. It’s unfussy, so even in flip-flops, you’ll feel right at home.
Royz Et Vous
Right in the middle of Telok Ayer, Royz Et Vous is a Muslim-owned cafe that feels like a proper sit-down restaurant without the stuffiness. Think hearty steaks, pasta done right, and coffee that actually tastes like coffee. The split-level space is comfortable enough for a date, yet you can easily bring your laptop for a solo working lunch.
They run a lunch and dinner service with a break in between, so check the timing if you’re planning to drop in at 4pm. Service is attentive without hovering—just the way it should be when you’re paying a little more. A steady choice when you’re meeting someone in the city and want to skip the fast-food queue.
- Address: 137 Telok Ayer Street, #01-01, Singapore 068602
- Hours: Mon–Fri: 11am–4pm (last order 3:15pm), 5pm–10pm (last order 9:15pm); Sat–Sun: 12pm–4pm (last order 3:15pm), 5pm–10pm (last order 9:15pm)
- Price: Mid-range, with premium mains like steak
- Website: royzetvous.com.sg
The upstairs seating is where you want to be if you’re settling in with a laptop—quieter and a bit more tucked away. For date night, the low-lit ambience does the work for you. It’s also one of those rare finds where the coffee actually stays strong through the meal.
BRIO
Over in the west at Jurong Point, BRIO proves you don’t need to travel far for a solid European-inspired meal. The pizzas are generous, the pasta satisfying, and the whole vibe is like your neighbourhood joint but polished up. Weekends they open at 10:30am, so you can even do a relaxed brunch.
This is the spot when you want to makan out without burning a hole in your wallet—prices are affordable, and portions leave you full. The grilled items are worth a try if you’re tired of the usual pasta rotation. It’s not fancy, but it’s damn reliable.
- Address: 1 Jurong West Central 2, Jurong Point, #02-24, Singapore 648886
- Hours: Mon–Fri 11am–10pm; Sat–Sun 10:30am–10pm
- Price: Affordable, big portions
- Website: brio.com.sg
This is heartland dining done right—no need to travel to town for a feel-good meal that doesn’t rush you. The weekend brunch window is the sweet spot; come early if you want a quiet table before the families roll in. It’s a safe pick when your group can’t agree on one cuisine.
Beanstro
If you’re already at Marina Bay Sands and need a reliable halal cafe, Beanstro delivers with a view. It’s the Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf’s fancier sibling, so the coffee is a given. But their brunch menu also holds up: pastas, sandwiches, and sweets that feel a little more special than your usual kopi-shop fare.
It’s family-friendly and open late on weekends, so a good pit stop after some retail therapy. The space is bright and airy, with a bit of that atas mall energy that makes you sit a little straighter. Still, nobody is going to judge you for turning up in shorts and slippers—it’s Singapore, after all.
- Address: 2 Bayfront Avenue, #B2-20/20A The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands, Singapore 018972
- Hours: Mon–Thu, Sun 8:30am–10:30pm; Fri–Sat 8:30am–11:30pm
- Price: Slightly premium, in line with MBS dining

Deep in retail marathon mode and needing a fuss-free refuel, this is the go-to. The view of the canal adds a little calm to the sensory overload of the mall. Families find it easy here—plenty of prams can navigate the space, and the staff don’t bat an eye at sticky tables.
The Halia
Set inside the Botanic Gardens, The Halia is where you go when you want to mark a special occasion—or just feel like you’ve escaped the city for a couple of hours. The menu leans modern European-Asian, and the chilli crab spaghettini is a signature for a reason. They are fully halal-certified by MUIS since 2017, so you can dine with peace of mind.
Lunch is a sun-dappled affair; dinner under the fairy lights is even more romantic. Book ahead because tables by the window go fast, especially on weekends. It’s the most atas on this list, but the setting feels genuinely special, not forced.
- Address: 1 Cluny Rd, Ginger Garden Singapore Botanic Gardens, Singapore 259569
- Hours: Daily 12:00 PM – 3:00 PM & 6:00 PM – 8:30 PM
- Price: Premium, especially for dinner

Book ahead if you want one of those outdoor tables under the fairy lights—they get snapped up fast, especially on weekends. Even if you come just for dessert and a pot of tea, the setting makes it feel like an occasion. It’s the kind of place where you take your out-of-town visitors who need a halal fine-dining lite experience.
All Things Delicious
On Arab Street, this bakery-cafe is all about things made from scratch. Their scones and cakes have a loyal following—you’ll see people dropping in just to tapau a box of treats. The space is bright and airy, perfect for a quiet afternoon with a book or a heart-to-heart over a slice of cake.
They also do custom cakes, so if you’ve got a birthday coming up, it’s worth dropping them a note. From hearty salads to comforting sandwiches, there’s enough to make a light meal out of it. It’s a halal bakery with a heart, and you can taste it in every bite.
- Address: 34 Arab Street, #01-01, Singapore 199733

How to choose
Start with what kind of outing you have in mind. A casual late-night catch-up with friends? Good Bites stays open till 5am. A chill coffee date with good food? Fika or All Things Delicious won’t disappoint. Need to impress someone or celebrate? The Halia’s garden setting does the heavy lifting.
Location matters too. If you’re in the east or central, Fika (Beach Road) and Royz Et Vous (Telok Ayer) are easy to reach. West-siders have a solid option in BRIO at Jurong Point. Beanstro at Marina Bay Sands works if you’re already in the area for shopping or a staycation.
Budget-wise, plan around $15–$25 per person at Good Bites and BRIO, $25–$40 at Fika, Royz Et Vous and All Things Delicious, and upwards of $50 at The Halia for dinner. Beanstro sits somewhere in the middle, depending on what you order. All serve halal food, but The Halia is formally MUIS-certified; the others are Muslim-owned or source halal ingredients. If strict certification matters to you, just ask the staff.
Think about space, too. Good Bites’ open terrace is great for groups, while Royz Et Vous and Fika have a more intimate setup. Most are kid-friendly, but toddlers might have more room to move at Beanstro or the Botanic Gardens grounds after a meal at The Halia.

Frequently asked questions
The scones are the unsung heroes here—drop by before the lunch crowd if you want first pick. It’s also a gem for grabbing a box of treats to tapau when you’re visiting someone; that gesture always beats showing up empty-handed. The upstairs area is quieter if you’re looking to actually get some work done.
Are all these cafes halal-certified?
Not every cafe holds a formal MUIS certificate, but all serve halal food. The Halia has been MUIS-certified since 2017, while others like Royz Et Vous are Muslim-owned and use halal ingredients. If certification is important to you, just ask the staff when you arrive.
Which cafe is best for a large group?
Good Bites is a natural fit with its open terrace and long tables, and it stays open very late. BRIO also welcomes groups in a casual setting. The Halia can accommodate larger parties but you should book ahead.
Do any of these cafes serve alcohol?
None of the cafes on this list serve alcohol. They focus on halal food and drinks, so you can expect specialty coffees, teas, and mocktails instead.
Can I order a custom cake at any of these places?
Yes, All Things Delicious takes custom cake orders for birthdays and celebrations. Reach out to them with your request and they’ll work something out.
Are these cafes suitable for children?
Most are kid-friendly. Beanstro and Good Bites have more spacious, relaxed environments. The Botanic Gardens just outside The Halia gives children room to run before or after the meal.
