Common Grill® @ 308 Clementi is a branch of Common Grill® by COLLIN'S®, one of Singapore's leading F&B chains bringing premium yet affordable Western cuisine to diners since 2012. The brand is built around an open-concept kitchen dining experience, where diners can watch the culinary team prepare signature grills and all-time classic Western favourites.
Common Grill® is led by Founder and Chef Collin Ho, who brought over 20 years of culinary experience from restaurants and five-star hotels before opening his first COLLIN'S® outlet in 2011. In 2017, the brand became the first Western cuisine outlet in Singapore to install a state-of-the-art Mibrasa charcoal grill oven, giving dishes a distinctive smoky flavour not achievable with gas or electric grills.
Today, Common Grill® serves tens of thousands of diners across outlets around Singapore, and has been recognised with multiple Singapore Prestige Brand Awards, including wins in the Promising Brands and Most Popular Promising Brand categories in 2017, and the Established Brands and Singapore Enterprise 50 Awards in 2018.
At 308 Clementi Avenue 4, Common Grill® by COLLIN'S® brings the brand's signature Western grill dining experience to the Clementi neighbourhood, as part of a wider chain that has been serving Singapore since 2012.
Common Grill® describes its concept as "The Gastronomic Experience" — a carefully planned and extensive menu designed to please groups of family and friends. From the heart of open-concept kitchens, diners can watch the culinary team present signature grills alongside all-time classic Western favourites, with the brand continuously innovating its menu offerings to improve the dining experience.
Common Grill® is the creation of Founder and Chef Collin Ho, who fell in love with cooking from a young age and built 20 years of culinary experience in restaurants and five-star hotels before striking out on his own. Chef Collin opened his first COLLIN'S® outlet in 2011, driven by a passion for making premium yet affordable Western cuisine accessible to diners from all walks of life.
In 2017, the Common Grill® outlet in Bedok North became the first Western cuisine outlet in Singapore to install a state-of-the-art Mibrasa charcoal grill oven in its kitchen — a reflection of Chef Collin's commitment to quality. Within the coffeeshop dining scene, this was a genuine game changer: unlike a gas or electric grill, a charcoal grill imparts a distinctive smoky flavour to meat, and combined with the aroma released when biting into a freshly grilled cut, it turns a simple meal into a more indulgent dining experience.
COLLIN'S® has picked up considerable recognition since launching. In 2017, the brand was a double winner at the Singapore Prestige Brand Award, taking out both the Promising Brands and Most Popular Promising Brand categories. The following year, in 2018, COLLIN'S® won again, this time in the Established Brands category alongside a Singapore Enterprise 50 Award — cementing its position as a reputable market leader in Singapore's Western dining scene.
Beyond its core grill offerings, Common Grill® regularly introduces new menu creations, including feast-style promotions designed to be shared with loved ones. These new dishes are typically made available for both dine-in and takeaway, giving customers flexibility in how they enjoy the brand's food.
Common Grill® by COLLIN'S® has grown to a network of outlets across Singapore, serving tens of thousands of diners. The brand's growth reflects Chef Collin's original vision: bringing family and friends together through good food, using the open-concept kitchen and shared dining format as a way to make every meal feel like an occasion.
Located at Block 308, Clementi Avenue 4, this outlet gives Clementi residents access to the same signature grills, charcoal-cooked mains and classic Western comfort food that has made Common Grill® by COLLIN'S® one of Singapore's established Western F&B chains.
