18 Kid-Friendly Restaurants In Singapore For Mums Who Need A Break

A peaceful meal can be hard to come by when you’re a mum. Here are some eateries that can help to keep you and your tot(s) happy and well-fed

September 17, 2021

If youโ€™re like most parents, you would have experienced your little one having a full-blown meltdown in public at least once. So kid-friendly restaurants can be a gift for those who just want to enjoy a good meal with their kids in peace.

Thankfully, Singapore itself is pretty kid-friendly and many restaurants offer up play areas and kid-oriented menus that will keep everyone happy and well-fed. Check out our curated list of restaurants serving up everything from burgers to all-day brunch right here.

18 Kid-Friendly Restaurants In Singapore For Mums Who Need A Break
The Pantry at Dempsey
image

Amidst the lush greenery of Dempsey Hill, The Pantry at Dempsey is a popular go-to for parents thanks to its delicious menu and amazing play area that is sure to be a hit with all the kids. The menu for little ones include mini meals as well as smoothies and juices that kids will love as well as dairy-free and gluten-free options if you need it. For the adults, expect comfort food mixed in with some healthy options as well as pizzas and pastas. At this time, kids will be asked to adhere to safe distancing measures when using the playground (but we don’t expect that would dampen the fun too much).

The Pantry,ย Block 16A Dempsey Road, Singapore 249677, Tel: (+65) 8121 5763,ย ย

Kith Cafe at Great World City
image

While the new Kith Cafe at Great World City is quite tucked away, it has a prime place right next to the semi-shaded outdoor playground โ€“ which could make meal times both very distracting or very relaxing for the parent, your choice. The menu features all of Kith’s favourites for both adults and kids, including healthy smoothies and treats as well. But we’re pretty sure it’s the playground, suitable for a range of ages, that’s going to be a major draw.

Kith at Great World City, 1 Kim Seng Promenade, #02-152/153, Singapore 237994, Tel: +65 6235 3925

TBB Safari
image

When your kids wake up early (as they all do) and you need that quick shot of caffeine to get you going, parents turn to TBB Safari in Dempsey for its sprawling space for kids to roam, as well as Common Man Roasters brews. Part of the Tiong Bahru Bakery group, you can expect great pastries and sandwiches for everyone to enjoy as well. The whole area is al fresco but there are plenty of portable air conditioners scattered to keep everyone cool.

TBB Safari, 130E Minden Road,ย  Singapore 248819

Prive/Bayswater Kitchen at Keppel Bay
image

Located side-by-side, Privรฉ and Bayswater Kitchen are great if you want to “escape” Singapore for the day/a meal. The marina-side restaurants have a peaceful vibe and feel decidedly like you’re not in the country. For the kids, the two restaurants share a nautical (naturally) themed playground. Bayswater Kitchen specialises more in seafood (think oysters and fish and chips) while Prive offers a mix of healthy and hearty options plus meat-free meals.

Privรฉ and Bayswater Kitchen at Keppel Bay, 2 Keppel Bay Vista, Singapore 098382

Prive Group
Little Spot
image

Previously the family-favourite Food for Tots, Little Spot takes over as the go-to, kid-friendly restaurant in the Jacob Ballas Children’s Garden. Kids take centrestage here with a menu that’s designed to encourage to explore and taste a variety of flavours and foods. This could include a breakfast of “the abc fluffy pancakes” which come with caramelised green apples, bacon and whipped cream, or their chicken fried rice which includes mixed veggies and poached chicken for an actually balanced meal.

The space is pretty educational too. Be sure to check out the upcycled colander light installation, themed recycling bins and potted herb wall. Kids will also love the interactive play area and little reading nook. A good time for everyone.

Little Spot,ย Jacob Ballas Children’s Garden,ย #01-K1,ย Singapore 259 569.

Ola Beach Club
custom

Brunch by the beach sounds like a great family outing idea. But it’s also an opportunity for the kids to run rampant. The good news is, this seaside restaurant is extremely family-friendly, with a nursing room and nappy-changing facilities, toddler-sized tables, and a playpen to keep the kids busy while the grownups enjoy a tiki cocktail or two by the pool. While you’re kicking back, check out its Hawaiian menu and treat yourself to a Hapu Upu U (Hawaiian grouper) or Huli Huli chicken.

Ola Beach Club is located at 46 Siloso Beach Walk, Sentosa, Singapore 099005

Wildseed Cafe
custom

Tucked away in the idyllic Seletar Aerospace Park (and below restaurant The Summerhouse) is Wildseed Cafe, which functions as a cafรฉ and patisserie by day and bistro bar by night. This chilled-out is the place to hang out on lazy Sunday afternoons, with coffee, pastry and live music. Meanwhile, the kids can burn off some energy at the playground just next door. Be sure to book early if you want to secure a spot in the air-conditioned section as this spot is pretty popular on weekends.

It also has a second, newer outlet at The Alkaff Mansion, and both are pet-friendly, too.

Wildseed Cafe is located at Level 2, 3 Park Lane, Seletar Aerospace Park, Singapore 798387, and Level 1, 10 Telok Blangah Green,ย Singapore 109178.

FOC Sentosa
custom

Fancy a Spanish feast with the family?ย  Then FOC Sentosa is your answer. While the kids get busy building sandcastles on Tanjong Beach and splash around in the pool, you can sit back with a sangria or two. The menu also serves crowd favourites like fish and chips and chicken sandwich, as well as classic Spanish cuisine like tapas, paella, croquetas de jamon and patatas bravas.

Both branches of Cafe Melba in the East and West offer the package of Australasian fusion food and a bouncy castle on weekends that kids will absolutely love. Goodman Arts Centre is a hub of family-friendly activity on weekends, while Mediapolis has an open area for a host of events and games like frisbee, scooting, soccer, basketball, and even life-size wooden noughts and crosses.

Boomarang
custom

One clear sign that a restaurant is kid-friendly is when its kids menu comes as a colour-in sheet. Enjoy some classic Aussie grub at Boomarang, located along the Robertson Quay stretch so you can catch a good view of the Singapore River if you choose to go alfresco while the kids scoot around. Start off with some wagyu beef sliders, then try some authentically Australian dishes like Peppered Kangaroo Loin.ย

The Vineyard may be a sophisticated chillout spot for adults during the week, but come the weekend, the place transforms into a family-friendly spot featuring a bouncy castle, balloon sculpting, bowling and archery zone. Bounce your worries away, then settle down for some French-Italian food and weekend brunch that includes the likes of pastas, pizzas, risotto, duck leg confit, white wine mussels, various toast options, and the hearty Vineyard Big Brekkie.

If youโ€™re missing The Bank Bar + Bistro, head over to its family-friendly sister restaurant SandBank. With a 15m plunge pool, this seaside eatery is sure to be a hit with the kids.
