Fresh AF vegan dishes - Edit
Me and hubby went on a date to Cultivate Cafe. Interiors are nice. Food were fresh and tasty. Too bad the vegan caviar was out of stock that time. They used the same greens for all of the 3 dishes that we ordered 😂

Fancy! - Edit
What a vibe this place had. I totally appreciate all the healthy interesting choices this menu was loaded with and I only wish I had time to try it all! I couldn’t resist trying the caviar and I was totally in the mood for a salad. Both were great, and I also loved the olive oil lemon cake dessert that I got!
Read moreI’m normally not one to comment on service, as I have worked in restaurants my entire working life and most people who comment on service clearly have not, but I will say that a few of the procedures could be revised bc I got the feeling that all the staff cover all the different restaurants in this hotel, which I imagine could get a little confusing.
Anyhow, everything I tried was delicious and I will definitely come back my next time in Singapore.

Fresh and inviting - Edit
As a book lover the restaurant design is beautiful, with comfortable chairs surrounded by enormous bookcases full of very readable books. At first glance this feels like my happy place. To then couple this with excellent vegan food and good coffee - that’s next level.
Read moreThe only little issues was that the staff could be more welcoming. I stood beside a sign that said wait here to be seated looking at three helpers chatting away and also looking at me. I had to approach them to get given a table. Possibly a misunderstanding as this is part of a hotel.
Pros: Full vegan restaurant. , Huge range of options from health to indulgent. , Super comfortable.
Cons: Not cheap (but is good value for money). , Staff were pleasant, but could be more welcoming

The food was really good and fresh, “satisfying sandwich” was one of the best dishes we had. Great service.

Great Ambiance, ok food - Edit
The ambiance of Cultivate Cafe was impressive, and the service was good. The food, however, was just ok. It wasn’t quite what I was expecting, especially for the price.

Lovely atmosphere - Edit
Cultivate café is a plant-based restaurant that is quite elegant and pricey. I loved the decor of the place: lots of shelves filled with old books and comfortable, vintage looking chairs. I had a risotto, caviar, and olive oil cake. Everything tasted great though not astounding (I had even more flavourful and cheaper meals in Singapore). Still, for the experience, I would recommend this place. The food is pleasant and the atmosphere really lovely.

Overrated pretentious place with poor service - Edit
My partner and I were excited to try this place out while visiting Singapore and were so disappointed. Given the price point, we were expecting fantastic food and service and were disappointed on both counts! We chose to go for lunch as we assumed nights may be busier. There were 2 other tables besides us, yet service was poor. I had to get up and go to the server to speak to him. The place was empty yet he didn't allow us to change our table- when I asked, his answer was "no, THIS is your table". He seemed to be functioning like a machine saying "sure, wonderful, great choice" to anything we said. When I asked about what we were ordering, he did not even indicate that the flavours of 2 of our dishes would be identical as they had the same tomato sauce base. All the food was bland. The smoothie was icy and tasteless as well. I've eaten in fantastic fine dining vegan restaurants in London. This one seemed like it was trying too hard without adequate experience.
Read moreI've had yummier vegan food in regular cafes and restaurants in Singapore. They also added a hummus to our bill when we'd not ordered it and there was no apology when I pointed that out - all we got was "oh sure, wonderful, I'll change that". Would not recommend. There are tons of non-vegan places that do better vegan food in Singapore. Hope they can get their act together in terms of service and food.
Pros: Vegan options
Cons: Expensive, Bland food , Poor service

Very good food - Edit
Ambiance - very classy. Only bad thing was that the music felt a bit loud as we were sitting right under the speaker.
Read moreFood - it was good. I can’t say it was exceptional but it was definitely yummy. Very many options, so it was hard to choose from (not complaining though 😂).
My fav was the portobello mushroom and butterbean mash. And walnut and date MINI loaf 😅 the dessert was so tiny! Delicious but could have been much bigger.
Cheese plate was also amazing!
Pros: Fully vegan , Lovely service
Cons: Pricey

Spectacular. Best in class. - Edit
You should come here just for the experience. The decor is incredible, a sort of Buddha Bar meets Singapore meets colonial times meets Indian heritage.
Read moreA huge amount of thought has clearly gone into the decor, which is stunning.
The menu has tons of variety, even a vegan cheese platter, tagine, pad Thai, patisseries....basically all sorts.
The breakfast menu is very limited (granola, tofu scramble and fruit) so come after 11am. Although it's still a great place to have a coffee.
