Dine in style.
By: Aina Shamshuri / August 14, 2023

Cafes are all well and good, but they’re all typically the same. It’s like once you’ve been to one cafe, you’ve been to them all. Sure, sometimes all you need is a cup of coffee and maybe a pastry, but have you ever wanted something more? Enter: themed cafes. These are where you can not only get good food and drinks, but a total immersive experience. These themed cafes are all about snazzy interiors that maybe transport you to another time, or even a fantasy world – with all the food and drinks to boot. Without further ado, let’s check out some of the best themed cafes in Singapore for a pump of fantasy in your coffee.

How could we not have started with one of the most famous cafes in Singapore? People from all over flock to this Harry Potter-inspired cafe, and to experience what it could’ve been like to dine at The Great Hall of Hogwarts. Not only can Potterheads dress up in house robes and swish and flick their wands, patrons can also feast on some amazing food. We love their Eggs on Multi-legged Crab Brioche, the mouthwatering Charing Cross Road Prime Ribeye, and you definitely can’t miss out on Mrs Lich’s non-alcoholic butterscotch ale.

This gives us an excuse to keep visiting this adorable cafe, as we love seeing how it looks different every single time. It’s a great place to visit with young kids, or if you’re young at heart, and not to mention, the decor just makes us squeal from its cuteness overload.
