30+ New Restaurants, Cafes and Bars in Singapore [June 2021]

While the latest period of lockdown curtailed the number of new restaurants, cafes, bakeries, dessert bars and specialty food stores opening this month, there was still no shortage of action around town over the past month.

New players with a first outlet during May 2021, which are highlighted with a [NEW] prefix in the listing below, include Aroma Coffee, Whitetree Organic Cafe and Tapas 24.

There's also new outlets from Kenny Roger's Roasters (returning to Marina Square), Cafe Melba and Udders Ice Cream.

Coop by Neon Pigeon and Dishoom join an increasing slate of virtual restaurants,

Our personal favourite, though, is Canchita, serving up Peruvian cuisine and Latino cocktails.
