Little Farms debuts largest concept yet at Singapore Botanic Gardens with restaurant and picnic kiosk

Little Farms has unveiled its most ambitious venture yet at the Singapore Botanic Gardens, transforming the former Halia restaurant space into a sprawling dining destination. This new concept eschews a retail market, focusing instead on an all-day dining restaurant and a convenient picnic kiosk, designed to complement the natural beauty and visitor activities of the Gardens.

Singapore Botanic Gardens attracts people who are walking, running, exercising, meeting friends or spending time with family. A full retail market didn’t feel like the right fit for this location. Instead, we’ve focused on creating a destination that complements the way people already enjoy the Gardens.

The main restaurant, The Bloomhouse by Little Farms, spans nearly 500 square meters and accommodates 112 guests across its indoor Palm Alcove and pet-friendly outdoor Ginger Terrace. CEO Joe Stevens explained that the focus is on fresh, produce-driven meals, anticipating that visitors often seek lighter fare after exploring the gardens. The menu features items like avocado quinoa bowls, pan-seared salmon, souffle omelettes, Turkish eggs, and various charcoal-grilled dishes, including French poulet and rack of lamb.

Complementing the restaurant is the Picnic Basket kiosk, offering a curated selection of grab-and-go items perfect for spontaneous picnics. Visitors can choose from charcuterie, cheeses, salads, tempeh chips, ice cream, bakery items, and beverages, including coffee, kombucha, and cocktails. For those seeking a more effortless experience, two pre-selected hampers are available, along with wicker hampers and rugs for purchase.

We've always been passionate about sourcing exceptional food, but increasingly we're seeing customers look to us not just for what they eat, but where and how they enjoy it.

Additionally, an event space named Orchid Solhouse is available for intimate weddings, private celebrations, and corporate functions. Stevens highlighted the brand's evolution, noting that customers increasingly seek not only quality food but also memorable dining experiences. This 10th-anniversary milestone allows Little Farms to offer a comprehensive destination combining dining, picnics, and events, all while maintaining its commitment to quality ingredients and warm hospitality.

this gave us the opportunity to create something much bigger than a restaurant, bringing together all-day dining, picnics and celebrations in one destination, while staying true to the quality ingredients and warm hospitality that define Little Farms.
