Tiong Bahru Bakery joins Joo Chiat’s cafe enclave with its 12th outlet; 3rd one in 2022

Tiong Bahru Bakery (TBB) is ending the year on a high with the opening of its 12th outlet.

Located in Joo Chiat, this is its third outlet in 2022 alone, with two others earlier this year in Siglap and Punggol.

Launched in 2012, the homegrown cafe brand celebrated its 10th anniversary in October. It is best known for its French-style viennoiseries, including signatures such as croissants and kouign-amann.

The 58-seater on Crane Road, which sports TBB’s usual aesthetic of warm, wooden accents and a glass-panelled exterior, opened officially on Dec 20.

It is one of three TBB stores that serve up hot menu items for all-day dining. Most locations under the Tiong Bahru Bakery brand around the island offer just freshly baked goods and beverages. 

If you’d tried and loved TBB’s selection of sweet and savoury croffles, you’d be pleased to know that it’s no longer a Waterway Point exclusive. These are now available at the Crane Road store, too.

Early risers should go for the Breakfast Croffle (S$22), with portobello mushrooms, bacon and a sunny side up, while those with a sweet tooth will be partial to the Dessert Croffle (S$14), topped with chocolate sauce and a sizeable scoop of vanilla ice cream. 

For all-day snacking, there’s a Pull My Pork Croffle (S$22), featuring Mexican pulled pork, pickled jalapenos, avocado and sour cream.

Other highlights include a Cluckin’ Amazin’ Burger (CAB, S$22), made with gochujang aioli and a fried chicken patty, and a Quinoa Colour Bowl (S$18) of quinoa, pomegranate and feta, if you’re looking to start the new year with plenty of clean eating.

Tiong Bahru Bakery is on the GrabFood delivery service. Alternatively, book a ride to its stores.
