Rise & Grind Coffee Co is a cafe that chose to locate in the West of Singapore, at Bukit Timah Plaza, a rather old building which comes quite a surprise to me.
The cafe is not in the building of Bukit Timah. To locate the cafe, go to the first floor and look for the exit. At the Entrance (if you are facing the Entrance), right is the Taxi Stand and left, after 7-Eleven convenience store is Rise & Grind.
Rise & Grind is a rather small but a cosy cafe with warm and friendly service crew. It offers both indoor and outdoor seats.
Menu
Rise & Grind offers quite some dishes ranging from Breakfast & Brunch to snack, pastas and burgers and a few desserts. You could find the most list of dishes at the Breakfast & Brunch section.
For drinks, you can find the espresso based coffee, tea and sparkling juice and a good few craft beers.
Breakfast & Brunch
Shakshouka compose of Lamb merguez sausage, baked egg in tomato sauce, feta cheese with wholemeal pita
This is a pretty strong tasting dish with a punch of sourish tomato flavour and a hint of spiciness. I enjoyed the tender Lamb merguez sausage and the runny yolk of the baked egg but not the hearlth wholemeal pita bread.
Coffee
Two types of coffee beans were served on the day of my visit; the Guatemala and House Blend.
I didn’t choose my beans; left it very much to the barista to decide.
I felt the cup of Cappuccino was of medium acidity, medium to full body with some citrus flavour note and milk chocolate hint.
NAHMJ Verdict
Rise & Grind Coffee Co is quite a nice cafe which serves pretty nice food and coffee. I notice they are taking reservation so you might want to consider this option especially if you are going in a group of 4 or more. It was packed on the day of my visit which is on a Sunday.
On a side note. Please note that Rise & Grind accept only Cash as payment.
