In today’s F&B arena, serving great food just isn’t enough anymore. 

To complete a guest’s experience, restaurateurs continue to step up their game to offer Instagram-worthy interiors complementing their picture-perfect menu items that are sure to spice up anybody’s feed.

Such trend also thrives in Singapore, where you will find a plethora of cafes and restaurants that are nothing short of Instagram aesthetic material. So if you’re up for a cup of Joe (or, perhaps, brunch or a cup of tea?) and some pretty snaps, here are ten stunning cafes and restaurants to hit in the Lion City:

Merci Marcel (@mercimarcel)

Merci Marcel is more than just a cafe or restaurant—it is a living and meeting space that promises to bring its guests the authentic French experience. They currently operate in three locations and all branches exude the same vibe—sophisticated yet laid-back, artsy, and inspired. Aside from coffee, they have excellent cocktails, which you can enjoy at the bar or while curling up on their sofas.
