Welcome to Tiong Bahru. Looking for Dessert places?

Drips Bakery Café is a delightful spot that offers a cozy ambiance paired with creative pastries and unique beverages. Among the items I tried, the Almond Croissant was the clear favorite. The croissant was perfectly flaky, with a generous filling of high-quality almonds that tasted fresh and indulgent. It’s one of those pastries that you’ll want to come back for.

The Seasonal Fruit Tart, while visually appealing, didn’t quite steal the show but still delivered a pleasant balance of sweetness and tartness. Another highlight was the Ondeh Ondeh Danish, a pretty pastry infused with the familiar flavors of pandan and gula melaka. It’s a modern twist on a local favorite and definitely worth trying. On the other hand, the Mushroom Chicken Pie fell a little flat. While hearty, it lacked the standout flavors that would make it truly memorable.

The drinks were equally intriguing, especially the Cappuccino and Iced Café Latte, both made with Koji Rice milk. The rice milk added a creamy and slightly sweet note that complemented the coffee well, making the beverages a unique and enjoyable part of the experience.

Overall, Drips Bakery Café impressed with its inventive take on classic items and thoughtful execution. While not every dish wowed, the Almond Croissant and Ondeh Ondeh Danish alone make it worth a visit. For a cozy afternoon snack or a coffee date with a twist, this café is a great choice.

I had a hunch this would be good. The bread was pillowy and fragrant, while the red bean and cream were top-grade.

- One of the smoothest I’ve had!!
- Pudding was delicately soft and melt-in-the-mouth served with clear brown sugar syrup that’s not too sweet. [9/10]

- Super smooth without any strain of grainy or siap aftertaste 😋
- Very easy to finish alone, beany taste milder than the former.
- Rich aroma of the beans though I wouldn’t mind a slightly thicker consistency. [8.5/10]

ordered the assorted box which came in 3 flavours : burnt butter honey glaze, cinnamon sugar and lemon cremeux. personal fav would be the cinnamon sugar and can i say the softness of the doughnut was quite commendable. had pretty high hopes for the lemon but left slightly disappointed as the lemon filling wasn’t enough for the whole doughnut so it felt like a plain doughnut instead
