17 Stylish Halal & Muslim-Owned Cafes In Singapore To Check Out
La Fez Cafe & Bakery
custom

Head to bakery-cafe La Fez at East Coast Road, and it’ll feel like you’ve been transported across the globe. Entirely adorned in a pastel pink hue with hints of gold, potted palms, and woven chairs, it creates a soothing Morroco-inspired setting.

Of course, you can expect the usual suspects of Moroccan fare like shakshuka, tagines, and meatballs, together with fusion dishes like the Linguine Seafood Harissa, and Smashed Avocado on Sourdough with spices and hummus.
The place also serves up various pastries and cakes, all freshly baked daily.
La Fez Cafe & Bakery is a Muslim-owned establishment. Located at #01-04 Springvale, 907 East Coast Road, Singapore 459107.

Overrice
custom

A mural of the New York City skyline and the Statue of Liberty, a yellow and black theme, a neon pink sign, and an industrial vibe — you might almost think you’re in a casual Manhattan eatery. Almost.

That’s the vibe that Overrice, a Muslim-owned establishment at Arab Street, is gunning for. Food-wise, it also draws inspiration from NYC’s The Halal Guys restaurant, serving up Middle Eastern-style fare the likes of hearty rice bowls generously drizzled with sauces, pita pockets, falafel bites, and the popular Yawn Balls, a side made with yam and prawns that are battered and fried.

The Overrice website states that all the ingredients and preparation of food are halal.

Overrice is a Muslim-owned establishment. Located at 48 Arab Street, Singapore 199745. Visit its website for more information.

Citrus by the Pool
custom

If you’re in the North of the island, you’d want to drop by Citrus by the Pool, a halal Western fusion cafe nestled in Woodlands.

It underwent a revamp in 2021, and has since opened to boast chirpy, eclectic interiors decked with neon lights splashed across mint walls and a botanical wall feature. You can expect fusion fare here, from tom yum seafood pasta to fried chicken and waffles, Thai dishes and burgers.

Citrus by the Pool is a halal-certified establishment. Located at 3 Woodlands Street 13, Woodlands Swimming Complex, Singapore 738600.

For the ice cream flavours, tantalise your tastebuds with scrumptious treats like Dark Gianduja, Speculoos, Masala, Oreo Mint, Mango Passion and Hojicha.

Sink your teeth into the likes of the popular Shiok Burger, with crispy chicken thigh and chilli crab sauce, Sambal Goreng Pasta, and Baked Salmon, all at affordable prices. If you’re after a sweet treat, order the molten chocolate lava cake, and waffles with ice cream.

The Bravery Cafe relocated from its original Lavender Street home to Amoy Street last year, with its new premise boasting a chic contemporary aesthetic of brass, rattan, and wood. Perfect for a brief respite from the busy CBD area.

Tuck into the hearty Big Brekkie or Steak & Eggs, or the tempting Pancake Stack, if you’re craving something sweet. Feeling peckish in the afternoon?

After a revamp in 2021, the halal Muslim-owned Mexican taqueria reopened to unveil vibrant exteriors and equally snazzy interiors. You’ll find neon-lit signs, a wall plastered with Mexican posters, and a raw, urban aesthetic.

Apart from classics like pulled meat, options for its tacos include coffee-braised beef cheeks with truffle mayo, battered shrimp with yuzu sriracha aiolo, and a banh mi-inspired version. You can also sip on beverages such as the alcohol-free Berry Mint Mojito or Guayaba.

Fika Swedish Cafe and Bistro
custom

Often translated as “taking a break, and with coffee especially, and with a baked good, the Swedish concept of fika gave this double-storey cafe its name. Owned by a Swedish and Singaporean couple, its interiors of white and wood are reminiscent of the minimalist Scandi aesthetic.

Here, you’ll find Swedish fare including pytt i panna, toast skagen (toast and shrimp), meatballs, lamb stew, and a herring platter. You don’t want to miss its desserts too, including Swedish pancakes and Kladdkaka (chocolate cake).

Other decorative elements, like the black-and-white mural of one of the many bridges and canals in bicycle-friendly Amsterdam, will transport you to the popular Netherlands city.
