What diners mention

  • Grind & Brew focuses on Western / Coffee Shop food. Rocket salad with vinaigrette was good, king prawn pasta was very fresh and bouncy, waffles were just-sweet-enough with a chewy/crispy texture, and the coconut cold-brew is genuinely refreshing.
  • Seating is indoors. Preferred seating: indoor mall-floor seating at AIRSIDE 2/F; Tables are tiled, so any cutlery sliding makes a loud sound.
