Brought to life by the creative team behind the popular Populus cafe, Apricus Coffee & Food Co. has quickly established itself as a must-visit brunch destination in the Sengkang heartlands. The name, derived from Latin meaning "sunny" or "warmed by the sun", perfectly captures the cafe's inviting ambience, characterised by hanging plants and a beautifully shaded skylight roof that filters natural light throughout the day.
Located at 248 Jalan Kayu, this spacious establishment accommodates over 15 groups comfortably, making it ideal for both intimate gatherings and larger celebrations. The cafe has garnered attention for its extensive all-day brunch menu that caters to diverse palates, from vegetarian delights like the Cauliflower Steak with Chickpea Hummus and the vibrant Apricus Green Bowl with Za'atar Crusted Avocado, to heartier options including Fried Chicken Spring Pancake, Seafood Linguine, and Brown Butter Pan Seared Salmon. All meats are sourced from 100% halal-certified suppliers, ensuring peace of mind for Muslim diners.
Coffee enthusiasts will appreciate Apricus's collaboration with 2 Degrees North Coffee Roasters, featuring house espresso made from single origin Brazilian beans, alongside artisanal matcha by Niko Neko and expertly crafted filter coffee. The cafe's signature Apricus French Toast and buttermilk waffles topped with soft serve have become crowd favourites, cementing its reputation as one of the northeast's premier brunch spots.
