The neighborhood bakery chain’s famous croissants are heading to BGC!
MANILA, Philippines – The wait is almost over! Singapore’s Tiong Bahru Bakery is opening its first Philippine branch this December at Bonifacio Global City (BGC), the brand told Rappler.
The exact date and location have yet to be confirmed.
Since its founding in 2012, Tiong Bahru Bakery has expanded to multiple locations across Singapore. Its upcoming Manila store marks its first Philippine foray, after Jollibee Foods Corporation (JFC) announced in August 2023 that they were bringing in Tiong Bahru Bakery and Common Man Coffee Roasters to the country.
The neighborhood bakery chain is known for its handmade croissants, freshly-baked pastries, artisanal breads, and aromatic coffee, using premium French ingredients and traditional baking techniques.
Considered a popular pasabulong spot, Filipino tourists flock to Tiong Bahru Bakery before flying back home, hoarding Tiong Bahru Bakery’s flaky Signature Croissants, Pain Au Chocolat, the buttery Kouign Amann, and other freshly-baked viennoiseries.
The small bakery first put up in the oldest neighborhood estate in Singapore — Tiong Bahru — hence, its name. Tiong Bahru is one of the most famous landmarks in Singapore, housing the popular Tiong Bahru Market with more than 50 hawker stalls. – Rappler.com
