I can’t believe I haven’t been to The Green Room Cafe located in the heart of Bishan Park after all this time. I live really close by, yet I never bothered to check it out until one Wednesday afternoon when I was on half-day’s leave.


I met up with a friend there for tea, and we spent about 2.5 hours chatting and lounging around on the comfy sofa with the fan spinning above us. We chose to sit on the patio rather than indoors. After all, the point is to be surrounded by all that lush greenery.
It’s a vegetarian cafe so maybe not a place for the carnivores. I only had the peppermint tea there so I can’t comment on the food and drink.


It’s a nice getaway from the hustle and bustle of Singapore and is perfect for a lazy afternoon. You just need to use a little imagination and keep your vision to a 10-metre radius, and you could almost believe you were in Bali or some nice tropical paradise.
