Working Title has evolved from its Arab Street origins to find a permanent home at LASALLE College of the Arts on McNally Street, bringing Melbourne-inspired cafe culture to the creative campus. Operating daily from 9am to 10pm as part of The Black Hole Group portfolio, this cafe serves the college community while remaining accessible to public visitors seeking quality coffee and substantial meals in an arts-focused environment.
The cafe built its reputation on proper burgers, specialty coffee, and hearty brunch options, maintaining the ethos of coffee, friends, and a burger or two that defined its early identity. The interior showcases eclectic decor and upcycled furnishing that aligns with its artistic setting, creating spaces where students and visitors can linger over meals or work between classes. The Melbourne influence manifests in both aesthetic choices and menu philosophy, prioritising quality ingredients and relaxed service over formality.
All ingredients used are halal, making Working Title accessible to Muslim students and diners without requiring a separate menu or compromising on variety. This inclusive approach means the full range of burgers and dishes welcome everyone, removing barriers that often fragment dining options in multicultural Singapore. The cafe occasionally hosts musical performances, reinforcing its position as a community hub rather than merely a food service point.
The LASALLE location provides steady foot traffic from students, faculty, and visitors to the college exhibitions and performances, while the Riverside location at Kallang extends their reach to a different demographic. Despite mixed reviews on platforms like Tripadvisor, Working Title maintains its identity as a neighbourhood cafe that prioritises substance over spectacle, serving straightforward quality food in comfortable surroundings.
