Nice quiet cafe right below a HDB block. Had a bobo waffle - chicken on top a sweet potato waffle with salted egg sauce on the side. Chicken was nice and tender, just that the salted egg sauce had a strong after taste. Waffles are definitely their specialty, this being one of the many waffles they serve. The hazelnut latte I had was wonderful and came topped with coffee art.
Coffee was great. Food was delicious! Loved the sweet potato waffle. The smoked duck pasta n Laksa pasta are a must try! Ice cream to end the meal was spot on!
It is a nice and cosy place overall. I particularly love the waffles. I will visit this place again. Food is slightly pricey but worth it.
Food was nice but the seat location was not ideal (right in front of the toilet entrance). For a group of 4 persons, that table was a bit cramped for us.
Food was good. And I especially love the S'moreffles and sweet potato waffles here! Thick, fluffy waffles with rich fillings, and the ice cream Flavours here are good too! Third time dining here and I can never get enough of their waffles!
The service was quick and efficient did not have to wait very long. on top of that the staff was very friendly which made the total experience wonderful.
The cafe is well conditioned. Helpful service staff who offered to charge phone upon request for help. Food were well presented. Waffles could be a little crisper for me but A for presentation.
Second visit to the place and im loving it. Great ambience and good food and most importantly no service or gst charge ! Reasonable pricing.
The restaurant was rather small and cramped. We got a table just outside the toilet and it wasn't very sanitary. Food was ok, but portion is quite small considering the price for a neighbourhood cafe. Service was quite slow as it was very crowded, not sure if the kitchen or crew is able to cope since it gets very crowded from 7pm onwards.
The food was good and it is a nice place for small group gathering. It is a cosy place though the area is a bit cramp.
The food are very delicious and the ambient is very conducive for gathering catch up. It also have many variety of cream to go work the waffle. Overall experience is great.
As a casual dinning area in a local environment. It serves as a quick option to many customer for a quick bite and meet up with resonable price.
Nice ambience. Reasonable prices for good food. Had the Egg Lava Beef Burger which was tasty. Wish they had other desserts like cakes aside from waffles.
the food quality has been very consistent and quantity is just nice making room for the sort after whaffles. reservations a must for weekend. will be good if seat space is less tight
The space is a little too small. . . deco is nice. . . and Food is relatively good. . . . . . .
Ambience was nice not too crowded. Was excited for the crab linguine but it was disappointing. The sweet potato waffles were good though so still worth it
Good place to chill alone or with a group of friends. I will go back there again. The beers are awesome. The food quality not bad too
A cafe for a great taste, and serve as a short break during the neighborhood . With it being a family friendly service and similar environment.
Good food and good environment. A great place for small gathering with friends. The pricings are also very reasonable. My 2nd time here. Will definitely recommend to friends
The shop ignore my reservation when i told them i have make reservation and the service is different from the previous time i when to this shop.
Food Portions are big and good for sharing. Waffles were too sweet and did not had much toppings to go along with. Would be good if the restaurant took Nets.
I like if the plain water provided can be water with lemon. It will be more refreshing and taste better. Most people like water with some taste
The staffs need to improve their attitude. Cleanliness, atmosphere not bad. Foods was ok too. We may come back for snack and dessert. I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I I
Great food with great services! We like the coffee very much. Sweet potatoes waffles is very unique and goes well with earl grey ice cream.
Good service, good food and cool ambience. The Garlic Pasta is very well done! We had a good family time there and we will definitely go back again.
Waffle didn't look like the one shown on their marketing videos. Looks flatter. Taste of salted egg gravy on the fried chicken in the burger could be stronger and slightly spicier. Egg lava beef burger is interesting. Could add a little flavour in the egg before it is inserted into the beef patty. Tables were a little too cramped. I had to shift my chair a few times so that the serving staff could walk past behind me. Overall, I like the feel of the cafe.
Enjoyed the burger and garlic pasta! Price wise think a little pricey for neighborhood cafe. Service can be improved. Original recipes. Will return for more.
Crab meat linguine was so-so with shreds of crab meat, no chunks. Egg lava burger had too much herbs (rosemary i think) too strong to our liking, no wow factor. Good variety of ice cream flavors and purple sweet potato waffle was good. Overall verdict: Good for desserts but food was not worth the price.
Price a bit up-market for a café at hdb. Good food & presentation. Ambience nice albeit a little squeezy. Purple potato waffle was da best!
Ordered the carbonara which was decent, as well as the salted egg pasta which came with a huge chicken cutlet and it was delicious! Had the sweet potato waffles as well, which was good, but unfortunately did not have a strong sweet potato taste, will stick to the normal waffles next time! But the ice cream was delicious as well :) Overall a good experience, will definitely return! :)
Comfortable ambience and excellent food - the salted egg pasta and carbonara were wonderful. Small but cozy space. Friendly staff are a great plus too.
Nice ambience and friendly service, but food portion is a tad too small for guys. But will definitely come visit again as the food is really nice!
Nice food, especially the waffle. We have a nice salted egg burger and crab meat linguine. Restaurant is somehow cramp and should do away with the smoking area to free up space.
Good service and friendly staff. Food served promptly. Kid friendly too. Must order salted egg wings and spam fries. Excellent food choices and sweet potato waffles great combination with premium ice cream
Workbench deli is very value for money. Food portion is quite big and taste was good too. Will go back again to try out other dishes.
Interesting food. i enjoyed the paprika fries that accompanied my salted egg chicken burger. the burger itself was ok. Pasta was cooked well. Sweet potato waffle was chewy and soft. I wish it was a little more crispy instead. Bubur chacha ice cream was light and refreshing.
Nice food. Hip ambience. Fast delivery. But crowded and cramped. The space between table to table and chair to chair can't really allow a person to walk past. Reservation for large party (like 4+)
We love the cheese fondue. We did not initially want to order it, but we saw the fondue ordered by the next table looks very good. Indeed, the cheese is still warmth when it arrives and it goes very well with the dips.
The food at Workbench Bistro was quite good, but the 10% Chinese New Year surcharge made it rather pricey for the portion and quality!
Nice food and drinks! the waffles were great as well. Service is good. Will return again for more good and nice food. Highly recommended for everyone!
Food was ok. Did not like the red velvet waffle at all...too soft and when mixed with ice cream it become wet dough. Not sure if i will go again
Service and food is ok. Great experience with them. Will go back and dine in future. Ambience is fine. Will recommend to friends and relatives
Food was really good. We loved the egg lava burger and sweet potato waffle.
Food was good, except they didn’t have a candle for me to put on the waffle to celebrate my friend’s birthday. They had it last time.
Hope to have more variety choices of food and drinks (beers) on menu. Overall still satisfactory. Lastly hope able to allow choices of seats if shop is not really crowded.
