Angelina Singapore is the local franchise of Angelina Paris, the iconic Parisian tearoom and patisserie founded in 1903 by Austrian confectioner Antoine Rumpelmayer, who named it after his daughter-in-law. Operated locally by AP MBS Holdings Pte Ltd, an Exempt Private Company incorporated in Singapore in October 2018 with an import processed food licence, the Marina Bay outlet carries on a nearly 120-year-old tradition of French pâtisserie.
The original Paris tearoom, located under the arcades of Rue de Rivoli, quickly became a gathering place for figures like Proust and Coco Chanel, drawn by the Rumpelmaers' pastry expertise. Since 2013, pastry chef Christophe Appert has continued that heritage, refreshing Angelina's iconic pastries while preserving the brand's know-how.
At the Singapore outlet, diners will find a menu of savoury and sweet dishes alongside the signature Mont-Blanc pastry and the world-famous L'Africain hot chocolate. The restaurant also offers gourmet gift boxes and chocolate assortments for takeaway, and food can be ordered for delivery online.
In 1903, confectioner Anton Rumpelmayer and his son René opened a tea house at No. 226, Rue de Rivoli in Paris, naming it Angelina after René's wife. The location's charm and the Rumpelmayers' skill with pastry quickly turned it into the place to be for Paris's cultural elite — Proust, Coco Chanel and leading French fashion designers all gathered in the famous tearoom. More than a century later, that legacy has arrived in Singapore, at a Marina Bay outlet operated by AP MBS Holdings Pte Ltd, an Exempt Private Company incorporated in Singapore in October 2018 as the local franchisee of Angelina Paris.
Anton Rumpelmayer's original ambition was for Angelina to become the ultimate gourmet temple and a symbol of the French way of life. Since 2013, that heritage has been carried forward by pastry chef Christophe Appert, who has refreshed Angelina's iconic pastries while staying true to the brand's exceptional know-how. The Singapore outlet channels this same tradition, offering a menu of savoury and sweet dishes built around the label's most famous creations.
No Angelina menu is complete without its two most emblematic items: the Signature Mont-Blanc pastry and the world-famous L'Africain hot chocolate. Both trace their roots directly back to the original Paris tearoom and remain central to what draws diners to Angelina outlets worldwide, Singapore included.
While the sweets carry the brand's name, Angelina Singapore's restaurant staples extend into savoury territory too. The Club Sandwich and Pain Perdu sit alongside heartier options such as French Duck Confit, giving diners reasons to visit beyond an afternoon tea. The menu is organised into legendary categories inspired by the brand's heritage — dessert cakes, chocolate and tea-time selections — alongside the core restaurant staples menu.
For those who want to bring a taste of Angelina home, or to give as a gift, the outlet offers a range of gourmet gift boxes under the "The Emblematics" and "Les Emblématiques" names, along with a 16-piece chocolate assortment. These boxed selections are designed around Angelina's signature sweet creations, in various sizes.
Angelina Singapore is located at 2 Bayfront Avenue in Marina Bay, and is open seven days a week — Monday to Thursday from 11am to 10pm, and Friday to Sunday from 11am to 11pm. For those who can't make it in person, food can be ordered for delivery online, and the outlet can be reached directly by phone or via its Instagram and Facebook pages under the handle @ANGELINA_SINGAPORE.
