I’ve been to a few different outlets of Privê. My favourite is the one at Keppel Bay. On this particular morning, Keppel Bay was a little out of the way, and the outlet at Paragon was fully booked. I took a chance and booked us into the outlet at Wheelock on Orchard Road using Chope.
The Ambience, Service and the Staff
This is a fully open-air restaurant. There’s no air-conditioning, but they have comfy seats and powerful fans. On a Singapore winter morning, it makes for a very pleasant environment to enjoy brunch and people-watch.
Privé’s service staff were both friendly and efficient and seated us at a nice table that was under a fan, and had an elevated view of the pedestrians walking down Orchard Road. Our orders were taken quickly, and coffee was served very quickly, with food coming out shortly after.
The Food
We ordered a Club Sandwich, a Burger, and a flat white.
The coffee was very well done and came out quickly after order was placed. The food followed very shortly after, but left some room for improvement. The burger patty was somewhat dry (I had ordered it medium well done). The club sandwich was made from very thick slices of bread which made it somewhat carb overloaded.
The Price Point
We spent around $50 for our meal for 2. This is reasonable on Orchard Road.
The Final Verdict
While our experience here was somewhat different from other Privé locations, it still remains a great location, and a great place for coffee. If you’ve had a long day shopping at Orchard Road and need to put your feet up while watching the world go by, stop here to recharge and get some refreshments.
