About Tiong Bahru Bakery

<img src="/images/places/best-bakeries-singapore/tiong-bahru-bakery.jpg" alt="Tiong Bahru Bakery" className="w-full rounded-lg my-4 object-cover" style={{height: "300px"}} /> Tiong Bahru Bakery is Singapore's most established French-style bakery with 1,579 Google reviews at 4.4 stars, operating from multiple outlets across the city including their Fort Canning location at 70 River Valley Road. The Tiong Bahru Bakery brand was founded with a commitment to classical French viennoiserie โ€” the croissant, the kouign-amann, and the pain au chocolat made to the laminated dough standard that characterises serious French bakery craft. Their original Tiong Bahru outlet helped anchor the neighbourhood's transformation into one of Singapore's most visited food and lifestyle destinations, and the brand has since expanded to multiple locations while maintaining its French bakery identity. Their morning selection includes croissants baked fresh from early in the morning, almond croissants, seasonal tarts, loaves of levain and country bread, and a rotating selection of viennoiserie. The Tiong Bahru Bakery kouign-amann is one of their most talked-about products โ€” a caramelised, flaky, buttery Breton cake that remains among the best versions available in Singapore. For anyone seeking the best bread singapore has in the French patisserie and laminated pastry category, Tiong Bahru Bakery's long-standing reputation and consistent review record across multiple locations makes it the reference point. Their early opening time โ€” 7:30 AM on weekdays โ€” serves the pre-work commuter seeking a proper breakfast pastry before the morning rush.

Customer Review

"Tiong Bahru Bakery is the standard by which I judge all other Singapore croissants. The lamination is proper โ€” genuinely honeycombed inside, shatteringly crisp outside, with a distinct butter aroma. The kouign-amann is an absolute must. I visit whichever outlet is nearest and have never been disappointed across years of visits."
