Serangoon Gardens is a low-rise estate with a compact cafe strip along Serangoon Garden Way and around myVillage and Maju Avenue. It is close to Chomp Chomp, and a few cafes are tucked into residential roads such as Lichfield Road. You'll find brunch cafes, bakery-cafes, Japanese-themed spots and gelato and waffle parlours. Brunch mains typically run about $16-$25, and coffee costs about $5-$8. Weekend mornings get busy and street parking is limited, so arrive early or take a bus or short ride from Lorong Chuan or Serangoon MRT.
