Royale (Mercure Singapore Bugis)

i ordered the royale wagyu beef burger and while the wait for our food was quite long, the portion was really generous! i loved the bun, and the patty was thicc. not a bad deal in my opinion, will come back to try the pastas on the menu!

1-for-1 Royale Tea Time ($42++/pax) with burpple beyond or uob cardholders. remember to book a reservation for the afternoon tea (by calling their number!) afternoon tea is strictly by reservations and they do not accept walk in!!! we did not have a reservation but was lucky enough that someone cancelled so we could get a table. paid $42++ for 2 pax using burpple including 2 (different) drinks per person! overall, food is okay for the price paid but won’t recommend it if it’s full price :( nothing stood out to us and most of them are mediocre. preferred the savoury food compared to sweet (all the desserts were too sweet for us) but shout out to tiramisu!!! strong coffee flavour and cream was quite light as well :) we recommend to get the twg teas to go with the sweet desserts!

2nd time back - this time for the 1 for 1 mains. Didnt see many reviews on this so gave it a shot as the high tea was good. We ordered the fish and chips and pork ribs. Fish was ok, nothing very special but the ribs were quite tough. Overall would give it a 2/5 but the ambience there is great and so is the staff service, so 3/5. Will still return for the high tea set!

Super worth it with Burpple ($42++)! Set can be shared but take note that an ala carte drink has to be ordered for each additional person. Was pleasantly surprised by the quality of the food and would definitely return for the burpple deal.

Server was very welcoming and walked us through the items in the set. For the refill, customers can order a different drink to try - however apparently drinks are not supposed to be shared (only food). For the drinks, would recommend the grapefruit pomelo and winter melon!

Super worth it given it’s 1-1 & the wide variety of pastries. Prefer the savoury compared to the sweet. Able to choose between beef/chicken sliders. Different flavours of macaroons too

This place is really a hidden gem. I went down on a weekday afternoon and the place was totally empty. The staff are very friendly and welcoming. Each person is able to choose 2 different healthier tea. It took awhile for the food to be served despite being the only guests at the restaurant. Tea set is very aesthetic. All the items are very yummy especially the chocolate hazelnut cake and smoked salmon. I dont eat salmon at all but I really love the smoked salmon :) Although the tea set period is valid from 2pm to 5pm, the staff did not chase us and allow us to sit and chill there till almost 6pm. With the 1-for-1 deal, it is really very worthy to try this high tea set. I will definitely recommend this place!! I will be coming back soon 😍
