The Rabbit Hole
We can’t get enough of the scenic views surrounding Dempsey's dining enclave, and The Rabbit Hole isn’t an exception. Their whimsical décor takes you into another world, as you step into their literal 'rabbit hole' located just outside their restaurant. It’s the perfect place to have a spot of afternoon tea, but it’s also a gorgeous setting for a garden wedding.

Masons
The white and black colonial style building nestled amidst the green foliage definitely lends the Masons plenty of character. Even more romantic at night, you can dine under the stars with your beau for a perfect date night. Enjoy their happy hour from 4pm to 7pm every day, and don’t forget to tuck into their elegant and refined grub that range from canapés to hearty steaks.

Burp Kitchen & Bar
For a scenic view of Bedok Reservoir Park, grab an outdoor seat at Burp Kitchen & Bar and take in Singapore’s nature reserve. If your belly is aching for some grub, this joint will do the trick with its spread of rich Mexican food. The food menu features mainly Mexican cuisine, with a touch of local dishes like their Salted Egg Wasabi Tofu Fries (SGD8) and Chicken Rendang (SGD12). Approach the friendly bartenders for a delicious brew and don’t forget to try their +65 Mojito (SGD11.50) - a Singaporean take on the traditional Cuban cocktail.

PS. Cafe at Harding
This homegrown restaurant is certainly not a stranger to any local foodie. Best known for their truffle shoestring fries and generous food portions, PS. Café has opened multiple outlets in Singapore - but our favourite has got to be the one situated on Harding Road. With their large windows, bright and airy space and a picture-perfect backdrop of towering trees, take a break from the urban landscapes and enjoy a cuppa at this atmospheric spot.

Frienzie Bar & Bistro
Just a little bit up North of Singapore, enjoy a tipple or two the serene reservoir at Frienzie Bar & Bistro.

Pick your poison from their extensive drinks menu that include everything from beers and cocktails to rich cognacs and liqueurs. Or you can brave their signature drink, Frienzie Going Crazy (SGD14.80), guaranteed to promise you a wild night ahead.

Enjoy a cuppa amidst gorgeous green foliage.

With Singapore being known as a Garden City as well as a food paradise, it’s only apt to dine amidst lush outdoor greenery. The hustle and bustle of city life can sometimes distract us from the scenic landscapes of green foliage that the city has to offer. Lucky for us, away from the concrete jungle, there are a few jewels of Singapore that offer a refreshing dining experience.

Tucking into delicious food is one thing, but a picturesque view is certainly the icing on the cake. Nothing sounds better than having a cuppa surrounded by towering trees and chirping birds. Scroll through the gallery for a list of some of our favourite places that lets you dine in nature!
