Terrible customer service. Even though there weren't any other customers around, the lady staff completely ignored me. I had to call her a few times just to get her attention. And then, when I finally placed my order, she didn't even respond. I don't even know if she understood what I was saying. The whole time, she didn't even say a word to me, making me feel like I was the one who was supposed to be serving her instead. I even said thank you when she gave me my cake, but still no response from her. I'm not going back there again, no matter how good their cake is.

Went in yesterday and the lady was very nice. My go to whenever I go to Singapore for the pandan cake and kueh lapis and lapis sagu. First time at this location.

Inflation is real. $1.90 for a slice of pandan cake, it doesn't even equate to being a slice as it's too pathetically small. It's like a half eaten slice and cut further into another half.

Bought my favourite kueh bangkit and peanut Kok chai. Very disappointed the quality of both. Powdery pastry + powdery peanut, lost the peanut characteristics, no peanut fragrance. The bangkit is sweet and unremarkable, can't compare to neighbourhoods bangkit. Banggawan no longer trade mark for quality. 😭

My go to place either for the special occasion cake like Mother's Day today, or for their assortment of nonya kueh.

Rude and unprofessional lady staff. Noticed me and immediately ignored me and turned away to pack. Stood there for over 1 minute. The other woman staff didn’t even turn around and both were too busy chatting over the food.

Cakes and Singaporean pastries. The best place to get local/peranakan pastries. There is no seating and no drinks served here. A strong recommendation is the cheese pandan cake! Otherwise, the colorful coconut filled peranakan pastries are always worth the calories.

Cake quality has dropped, with the cake being dense, and mangoes not being sweet or flavourful. Edible and acceptable, but why get this when you can buy from the other cake shops within the same price bracket and get nicer and more delightful cakes for around the same price?

I love most of Bengawan Soolos snacks but my best advice is to stay away from their chocolate cake roll it smells and taste like feet.
