PRAIRIE by Craftsmen: All-Day Brunch, Sandos and Craft Drinks in Singapore

PRAIRIE by Craftsmen operates as more than a café — describing itself as a gathering place where connections flourish, communities unite, and creativity thrives. With locations in River Valley and Joo Chiat, PRAIRIE serves brunch, beverages and desserts built around what it calls edible art, with each dish reflecting the imagination of its culinary team.

All-Day Breakfast and Brunch

The River Valley menu runs all day, opening with Set A — charcoal-grilled toast with pandan kaya spread and a sous vide egg — through to heartier options like the Big Breakfast, with pork bratwurst, bacon, sauteed mushrooms and hashbrown. Bowls and toasts feature too, including a Greek Yoghurt Bowl, Acai Super Bowl, and Avo Toast with mashed avocado and marinated feta. Waffle and rosti options round out the morning menu, alongside a Mushroom Confit Toast for something more savoury.

Sandos and Donburi

PRAIRIE's Japanese-influenced side shows up in its sando and donburi selections. Sandos, served on shokupan, span a Plum-Glazed Chicken Sando, a Double Trouble & Cream Cheese Sando, Smoked Salmon Sando, Aussie Ribeye Sando, Cajun Prawn Sando, Shredded Duck Sando and BBQ Pulled Pork Sando. Donburi bowls come with Japanese pearl rice, onsen egg, furikake and donburi sauce, with a choice of protein — from salmon mentaiko to slow-cooked shredded duck — plus two toppings.

Pasta and Afternoon Mains

From 11:30am, the menu extends into pasta and heartier mains, including Steak and Cacio e Pepe, Creamy Cajun Prawn Pasta, White Wine Clam Pasta, Mushroom Kombu Pasta and Duck Leg Ragu Pasta, alongside a Ribeye Steak & Fries, Slow-Baked Pork Ribs, and Beef Sliders with Fries.

Desserts and Drinks

PRAIRIE Dollars and Events
