Cafe Nesuto (#04-27/32)
Cafe Nesuto on Level 4 of ION Orchard marks a significant evolution for the beloved Singapore dessert brand, introducing its first-ever savoury menu alongside signature cakes and pastries. Founded by pastry chef Alicia Wong, this brunch café concept opened in August 2025 after over two years of menu development with chef Daren Teo, who trained in Provence, creating French-Japanese fusion comfort food. The serene space features soft curves, layered marble, and warm natural woods creating a cosy atmosphere.
The brunch menu includes Spicy Scrambled Eggs on Toast, House-Cured Salmon Eggs Benedict, and Nesuto's Signature Quiche with rotating fillings. For mains, the Braised Miso Chicken Leg with miso sake cream sauce and creamy mashed potatoes is a standout, whilst ION Orchard-exclusive pies include the Braised Oxtail Open-Face Pie with pickled mustard seeds and Chicken Open-Face Pie.

Hoshino Coffee (#B3-22)
For a taste of Japan's beloved café culture, Hoshino Coffee at Basement 3 of ION Orchard is a must-visit. Originally from Japan, this cosy café has built a devoted following for its aromatic hand drip coffee and its signature soufflé pancake. Beyond coffee and desserts, Hoshino's menu spans a wide variety of wafu pasta, rice dishes, and the crowd-favourite Omu Soufflé — a silky omelette that makes for a thoroughly satisfying brunch plate. The warm, Japanese-inspired interior with its signature brown leather seats makes it an ideal retreat from the bustle of Orchard Road. Open daily from 11am–10pm (10:30pm on Fridays and Saturdays).
Paris Baguette (#B1-15B)
For a more wallet-friendly brunch with an impressive spread, Paris Baguette at Basement 1 of ION Orchard delivers with its flagship Singapore store — spanning over 3,000 sq ft with 70 seats and an all-day dining menu. This French-inspired Korean bakery chain, founded in 1988, is beloved for its daily-baked breads, pastries, and custom-decorated cakes.

It's a great all-rounder for groups with varied tastes, or anyone looking for quality bakes in a relaxed café setting. Open daily 8am–10pm.
Plain Vanilla (#B1-06, within In Good Company)
Tucked within the flagship store of homegrown Singaporean fashion label In Good Company (IGC) at Basement 1 of ION Orchard, Plain Vanilla is a local gem that offers a quiet respite from the energy of Orchard Road. IGC opened its ION Orchard boutique in 2015 with Plain Vanilla as an in-store café, creating a thoughtful retail space that has become a beloved destination for both locals and tourists seeking something authentically Singaporean.
The café is inspired by the calm of a forest, with curvaceous tables and benches that take reference from water puddles on a forest floor. The menu keeps things simple and well-executed: signature cupcakes in flavours like Salted Caramel, Red Velvet, and Earl Grey Lavender; freshly baked viennoiseries; deli sandwiches and salads made with fresh ingredients; and aromatic organic coffee and tea. A curated selection of homeware from Plain Vanilla Home is also available in-store, making it as much a lifestyle destination as a café. Perfect for tourists wanting a taste of Singapore's independent food and retail scene. Open daily 10:30am–9:30pm.
Surrey Hills Grocer (#05-02)
Hidden on Level 5 of ION Orchard (accessible via the carpark), Surrey Hills Grocer brings authentic Australian brunch culture to Singapore. This 3,400-square-foot café and grocer features stunning floor-to-ceiling windows overlooking Orchard Road and a light-filled greenhouse atmosphere. The Australian brunch menu includes the massive BBQ Pork Shoulder Benny with 48-hour sous-vide pork, and the Instagram-famous Chocolate French Toast with almond chocolate crumble. The Chilli Crab Linguine offers a local twist. What makes this venue special is its attached artisanal grocery section with over 2,000 Australian products. Open daily 10am–10pm, Surrey Hills Grocer is perfect for leisurely weekend brunches with spectacular Orchard Road views.
The Marmalade Pantry (#04-11)
A beloved fixture of Singapore's dining scene since 1999, The Marmalade Pantry's flagship outlet on Level 4 of ION Orchard underwent a stunning transformation in October 2025, emerging as a contemporary bistro that honours its heritage whilst embracing modern design. The 2,389-square-foot, 80-seater space captivates with striking glass block installations that play with light, eye-catching recycled lampshades demonstrating sustainability, and welcoming communal seating that encourages social dining. Vibrant citrus accents throughout the space nod to the brand's name, creating an Instagram-worthy environment that feels both sophisticated and approachable.
Known for luxurious pasta dishes and exquisite cupcakes, the all-day menu includes the popular Spicy Crabmeat Linguine, Truffle Beef Burger, and Kimchi Steak Fried Rice. With both indoor and open-air seating, it's perfect for business lunches or casual brunch catch-ups. Open daily 10am–10pm.
TWG Tea (#02-20/21)
A cornerstone of ION Orchard since the mall's opening, TWG Tea occupies a prime position at the Level 2 drop-off point — making it one of the most prominently placed dining destinations in the building. A sister brand of Bacha Coffee, TWG Tea brings a distinct character of its own: an intimate 1,800 sq ft tea salon, retail boutique, and takeaway patisserie counter, sheltered behind a spectacular artisanal curved glass wall. The interiors are finished in dark rich woods, gleaming polished brass, and fine marble, crowned by a collection of antique Russian samovars and a rotating tea wall.
The all-day menu is a celebration of tea-infused cuisine — from the Genmaicha Mushroom Linguine (tossed with sautéed forest mushroom, wilted spinach, and a soft-cooked egg) to an assortment of five finger sandwiches featuring delights like lobster brioche, smoked salmon club sandwich, and crab meat tart infused with Black Nectar Tea. For a lighter indulgence, the 1837 Tea Time Set pairs your choice of tea with freshly baked muffins or scones and TWG Tea jelly. With an encyclopaedic selection of signature tea blends, every visit offers a new discovery. Open daily 10am–9:30pm.
