A small, quiet cafe on Clementi Road that sits beside a childcare centre, with a small outdoor area that looks over the nearby park. It is run largely by one owner, known to customers as Auntie Doris, and visitors praise her warmth and her chats. The coffee is called fragrant, and the menu is simple comfort food: soft eggs benedict, grilled cheese and ham sandwiches, waffles with ice cream, and freshly baked cookies and brownies. Reviewers say the blue pea herbal drink adds a local touch, and that the salad is fresh. Several say the waffles are the thing to order. Weekday mornings are when most regulars come in, and the cafe does not open on weekends, roughly following the nearby school hours. Reviewers note that the entrance from the front is through the park side, and that the back door is heavy. Within a kilometre there are two other cafes: Huggs Coffee Takeaway is 0.3 kilometres away, and Xing Le Xing Hainanese Chicken Rice is 0.7 kilometres away. Benches Cafe is at 93A Clementi Road, in Clementi.
