The restaurant's delivery partnerships with major platforms extend their healthy dining philosophy beyond the physical location, while their strategic position within one of Singapore's premier shopping centers allows customers to combine nutritious dining with comprehensive retail and entertainment experiences.
I was disappointed with my recent experience at Cedele. I ordered the avo on toast with salmon and a chai, but unfortunately, the food did not meet my expectations. The salmon tasted off and lacked freshness, while the chai was a letdown – it seemed like watery milk without any of the rich, fragrant spices you’d expect from a good chai. Overall, the meal was disappointing, and I left feeling quite dissatisfied.

Ordered 2 mains (all-day breakfast, and rosti with sausage), and both were disappointing. The rosti in particular was really bad — very soggy. Our drinks (chai lattes) didn't taste good either. Coffee Bean makes a chai latte done right, and the one here was poor in comparison. We've been to other Cedele outlets and came away with reasonably good experiences, so this one stood out like a sore thumb.

I’ve been ordering this dish from Cedele Raffles City for years. Often, it would be takeout. This time, I did a Grab self-pickup and asked for some extra salsa, and the lady in short hair with glasses demanded an extra $2.00. I don't mind paying; however, why was it given free in the past and not now? And it's not $1.00 or $1.50, but $2.00 for a small container of salsa. They can do way better with their level of service. At this rate, they are only chasing more customers away; many of my friends have already boycotted them. With the experience I had today, it made me even more certain to not patronize them anymore.

Good coffee and cakes, with the standout being the carrot cake. However, it would be good to see more consistency in portion sizes across outlets. The slices of cake served at this branch appear to be smaller than the ones served at other branches, unless there has been a decision to reduce the portion sizes in just two weeks. The person manning the counter was friendly, but staff seemed to be struggling to keep up with orders even though it was not yet peak period. We visited late Saturday morning when there were still quite a number of empty seats, but the cafe filled up quickly as we started eating. The cafe is rather cramped.

Located in a very central position of the mall, it's hard for the place's atmosphere to stand out, much less be appealing or extraordinary. Service staff were overworked, as were the kitchen staff, leading to the rather expected outcome of reduced accuracy and diminished customer service. One latte, fries, and two cakes, some of which were simply fetched from the fridge, took about 15 minutes, which felt a little long. The service staff, however, are good people, and I don't blame them. Still, it's best to avoid during peak hours.
Food is about as well-made and expensively priced as at other outlets. Would recommend only when it is quiet.

We enjoyed our simple dinner after the National Day Parade preview. Most restaurants were closed, and we were excited to see Cedele still open at 9 PM. The food was normal, but good enough for a relaxing dinner. The portion was just right for a late dinner.

The Cedele here has good ambience. Their truffle fries are flavourful and crispy. Their cakes are delicious and light, not too heavy but still flavourful. The red velvet cheesecake is great for a sweet tooth!
Shandra
A very noisy cafe. The sound made by dragging the chair can be deafening. Everyone tends to talk very loudly here. Service is quite good, as staff work very fast to serve.
Cafe latte: feels more like Cappuccino as it's too foamy. I wonder if there's a difference between the two. There is a wide selection of cakes and breads. Cakes and breads are also pricey.

Here's the edited review:
The food is good, as it is in every Cedele, healthy and tasty.
The staff could be better prepared. They have a lot to do because the place is always packed, but we noticed that tables could be cleaned faster and they could be more careful when handling cutlery/napkins – they forgot ours, and when we asked, they got a bit defensive (?).
Other than that, it is a fine place for coffee and a nice lunch during a busy day of work.
Devi Prabhu
Nice brunch menu and pastries. I had the Grilled Chicken and Avocado Burger, served with Sweet Potato Fries. Food is good and served hot.
I also tried their Strawberry Tartlet, Cheese Scallion Scone, and Cranberry Scone. Those are nice too. Coffee is good.
Nice environment, service is okay.
Isabella Ong
Love visiting this outlet!
It may get crowded at times, but the team is ever welcoming and always ready to assist with a smile.
Really appreciate the kind and lovely gestures of Chin Yee and Siti. They are consistently going above and beyond: remembering my 'usuals' and ensuring I am well taken care of (i.e., checking to see if I have everything I need, reminding me about my membership perks and expiry, and keeping me updated about the latest offers and promotions).
Price is slightly steep, but the food is great; you may even be in for a pleasant surprise if you are willing to step out of your comfort zone.
Though the place is quite tight and has high traffic, it is relatively clean and tidy.

I recently started visiting Cedele after trying the salmon sourdough bagel for the first time. Today, I had the Mirin Salmon Grain Bowl ($17). I really appreciate this wholesome dish. Food quality has been consistent in all my three visits here. Importantly, the food came within 5 minutes. If I want clean, nutritious, and quick food, I'll visit Cedele. The service was okay, though. Considering there's no service charge, I think it's still all right. The price point is reasonable.

I love the bakes here! Not so much the cakes, which I find too pricey for such a small slice, but their other tarts and bakes are delicious! My usual order is their strawberry tart and apple crumble. The Lemon Lust is good too, though it can be a little sweet. The small pantry staples, such as their mixed seeds, are also delicious. Good crunch.
Service at this branch is fast and efficient and can be a little curt at times, which is understandable since the flow of traffic is crazy during peak hours. The place to order and wait is also very tight. And the poor staff don't have a proper place to have their meals, but have to sit cramped beside the baking shelves.
The packaging has also changed. I've seen the staff struggling to pack the cakes and bakes, and I, too, struggled to open it when I reached home. Hope something can be done. The previous packaging was way easier!

I was glad my friend and I managed to get a high table for dinner on a busy Friday night at this mall. I hardly dine at Cedele, so I’m giving it a conservative 4 for now.
The food was served quickly, which was much appreciated. I had the sea bass coriander pesto pasta, which was pretty satisfying. Service was efficient.
The ambiance is somewhat lacking due to the low ceiling and the high footfall in the basement level of this popular mall.
This branch of Cedele is great for a quick bite before heading to your next destination.
Eng Seng Chan
Came over for early lunch on a Sunday, and thankfully it wasn't too crowded. The hearty breakfast is pretty good. I particularly liked the raisin bread paired with butter and strawberry preserve, which elevated the taste. The Eggs Benedict is a safe bet. I've tried them in other outlets, and they were awesome. Overall, it was a good experience. One thing that intrigued me was a guy who came over to sell some merchandise. Not sure if touting is allowed.
