GRUB Pasta Kitchen: Fresh Handmade Pasta in Bishan Park

In the middle of the lush greenery of Bishan Park River Plains, near Carpark A, GRUB Pasta Kitchen brings a fresh dining concept to one of Singapore's most scenic park settings. It's the pasta-focused arm of GRUB, a casual neighbourhood bistro group known for a fun vibe and a serious approach to food — the kind of hearty, shareable cooking they'd happily serve their own families.

Made From Scratch

GRUB Pasta Kitchen leans hard into freshness. All of its pastas and sauces are made from scratch in-house, in a kitchen that includes a dedicated pasta production room. Desserts are handcrafted in small batches on-site, and the drinks menu features 100% natural fruit juices, squeezed directly from the fruit with no added sugar or syrup, plus fresh fruit cocktails and a wine list.

A Menu Built Around the Day

The restaurant structures its offering around the rhythm of the day. The main menu runs daily from 11am to 10pm. On weekdays, there's a dedicated lunch set from 11am to 3pm and a dinner set from 5pm to 10pm (excluding public holidays). On weekends and public holidays, a breakfast menu runs from 8:30am to 10:45am — a fitting start for a park-side brunch spot.

Indoor and Outdoor Seating

With seating both indoors and outdoors, GRUB Pasta Kitchen makes the most of its Bishan Park setting. Reviewers have described it as a lovely eatery right in the heart of the park, with great ambience — one visitor mentioned bringing their dog along for brunch, while another family celebrated a birthday there, praising both the food and the friendly staff.

Events and Celebrations

Beyond everyday dining, GRUB Pasta Kitchen hosts private events and celebrations, with sample party menus available on request.
