Who would have thought, the Monopoly game we loved as kids has come to life! This place has been open for a while, and we visited this place again last week. It wasn’t crowded at noon on a weekday. After finishing the games, there’s a themed café right next door.
The cafe’s decor and menu are super immersive, with tables designed like Monopoly boards, and every dish incorporates Monopoly elements!
Plus, the food is really good. The pasta is a safe bet with plenty of meat, and the burger has a thick, juicy patty, the food is so delicious!
What we tried
They offer a wide selection of drinks and desserts, and you can tell the menu was thoughtfully designed with lots of Monopoly-themed elements.
Their Coconut Estates Bliss Latte really impressed us! It has a coconut black tea base, coffee jelly, and coconut cream. The sweetness level was just right, definitely worth a try!
As for mains, we tried their Wagyu Beef Burger. Most of their mains come with side dishes (fries, salad), and the prices are quite reasonable compared to other brunch spots.
It’s super convenient to drop by the café after playing at the theme park!
High tea menu at Monopoly Dreams
The $50 per person High Tea Menu includes 6 savoury dishes and 6 sweet treats, along with unlimited refills of coffee or tea!
We really loved the salmon tart and wagyu beef ball slider. The tart shell was crispy, and the smoked cream was rich and smooth. The wagyu mini slider was both cute and filling.
The beef was rich and flavourful, while the pickles and tomatoes balanced the richness!
Overall, it was incredibly satisfying.
As for the desserts, they were just the right level of sweetness without being overwhelming, perfect for those of us who prefer a lighter taste.
It was clear a lot of thought was put into incorporating Monopoly elements into each dish.
If you want to try their high tea, make sure to book your afternoon tea in advance!
