Halal Food in Artease Cafe

Artease Cafe operates from Queenstown Public Library at 53 Margaret Drive, bringing its uniquely Singaporean cafe and bubble tea concept to this community space. Open Monday through Sunday from 10am to 8:30pm, the cafe serves as a halal-certified social enterprise with locations spanning Woodlands Civic Centre, Republic Polytechnic, and One Punggol Library, creating accessible dining options within public facilities. The menu balances simple main dishes including Teriyaki Rice, Fish and Chips, Cream Pasta, and Baked Rice with small bites like croffles (croissant-waffle hybrids), croissants, mini pancakes, and sandwiches. The beverage range covers bubble tea, classic milk tea variations, honey green tea, and gourmet coffee alongside gelato and ice cream for dessert. Pricing remains affordable to suit the library setting where students and families comprise the primary clientele. What distinguishes Artease beyond its menu is its social mission supporting students with special needs from institutions like Mountbatten Vocational School. This commitment to providing tailored employment opportunities reflects Singapore's social enterprise movement, where businesses balance profit with purpose, creating inclusive workplaces while serving community needs through accessible, quality food and beverage offerings in public spaces.
