The Populus - 146 Neil Rd

It's a really nice cafe that serves good food at an ok price. Service is prompt, and staff were polite. We ordered a mushroom x pesto pasta and the signature chicken burger. Topped up $3 to change the paprika fries into truffle fries, and I really like it. I wish there were more cabbage and apple slaw in the burger though. The slaw would make it less overwhelming and the overall taste will be more balanced.

Fabulous services, our party of 5 were given a private room. The foods look great and equally delicious. Some of the must try, the champion, brekky, bounty, the lamb, the desserts, etc...

A fairly popular cafe? I think. It was VERY crowded when I went there on a Sunday and eating time is limit to 75 mins upon food arrival. There are many reviews here so mine will be to the point.? The waffle ice cream is a must try! The vanilla ice cream being the standout part of this experience. It's really fluffy, lightly flavoured not to sweet and leaves a very satisfying taste in your mouth when you eat it with the waffles. It's a must order and I would call it a wasted trip if you did not. Pretty Pricey cafe. Most things are above Sgd $20. Not really wallet friendly. (Minus star here) Fairly average food. It's definitely filling just look at that portion. But I would rather not order the main dish and just focus on the ice cream? Staff service fairly quick and polite so yeeppee

Came here for brunch and find this place nice and cozy. Not very much of a crowd and the staffs were also friendly. Flat white (balanced) tasted good too and food was filling and very nicely presented. We ordered the breakfast with scrambled eggs and buckwheat pancake. Will come back again to try other food too!

I was craving for waffles and my bff suggested I must give it a try at The Populus! This was my first time here and love the cozy ambience. The main course tasted fresh with good size portion. I was totally melted as both of their dark chocolate waffle and strawberry waffle turned out to be so yummy! ? Do remember to make a reservation ya…

Decided to try out the dark chocolate sundae and buttermilk waffle. The towering dark chocolate sundae was an eye catcher. Flavour was rich and slightly bitter, texture likened to a soft-serve. The drizzle of passion fruit and raspberry coulis added a nice and refreshing twist to the richness. The buttermilk waffle, crispy on the outside and light in the middle. The dough perfectly done and easy to eat without feeling heavy after dessert. Ambience is cozy and staff super attentive and helpful. Dessert Priced at $12/-, definitely would return again and recommend to anyone looking for a place to chillax.

First time here for dinner, environment is nice, but is really noisy especially when the diner comes in big group during peak hours. Ordered the beef burger, cod & leek and a waffle with ice cream. Food wise is good, will visit again in future during off peak hours to avoid the loud noise to try other stuff.

Great cafe! Very nice ambience upper floor. Thumbs up for the reservation service. Very nice burger...and the wheat pancake is special and delicious. Overall good food and good service. Fast serving time too. Will be back for more.
