This is my first time at this outlet. Surprisingly the Kaya Peanut Toast and Coffee C tasted not as good as what I had at Yakun Plaza Singapura. The Kaya Toast is a tad sweeter and the Kopi C tasted like those from HDB coffee shop, not as flavourful as those brewed at Yakun Plaza Singapura. The coffee here doesn’t taste pure. The only thing I like about this place is its spaciousness. The seating area is huge and we have more comfort and privacy sitting here than at other Yakuns in town which were mostly very very cramped. I really love the spaciousness and may come here just to relax, doesn’t matter the less than desirable coffee.

Came here for a drink. Had kopi C Kosong. The problem with the drink is that they stinge in the evaporated milk so the coffee was awful, too dark and lack of milk. Would be better if more milk is added to the coffee.

Came here for breakfast after running some errands at Wilkie Edge. Had Tuna Mayo Toastwich. Really love the toast and coffee here. And the spaciousness. I always think of this place whenever I have a social meet up.

A nice and cosy Ya Kun outlet at The Cathay. The kaya toast and soft-boiled eggs are consistently good, and the coffee is strong and aromatic. Staff are friendly and the service is quick, making it a great spot for a simple breakfast or tea break. Convenient location if you're around Dhoby Ghaut.

great local experience, service was lovely and great prices for breakfast. would. recomend.
as a tourist, the toast had way too much butter, would recomend the french toast but its less authentic. but the locals seemed to love it so no points off.

i dont know why but kaya toast at ya kun kaya singapore is always good. the combination of thin and crispy toast vs butter and kaya that smooth and melting in your mouth never fails. loved it! 🤍

Here’s a smoother, polished rephrase:
“We visited this place for breakfast to try their famous kaya toast. We ordered the Kaya Butter Set(3.5/5) and the Egg Mayo Toastwich(4/5). The Kaya Butter Set had a bit too much butter, and you could really feel it while eating, but the coffee was on the stronger side and paired well with the soft-boiled eggs. The Egg Mayo Toastwich was good too. Overall, it’s a decent spot for a quick breakfast.”

This Ya Kun branch is new, spacious and clean.
The food is well prepared; toastwich was well done crispy on the outside and still chewy inside
Having eaten here a few times, the staff knows my preference and is efficient!

Pro tip: Just go for the signature menu — don’t switch it up!
Nothing beats the original. Trust me. It’s seriously the best thing on the menu.
Pair it with a hot or iced tea — both go perfectly with it.
And that first bite? OMG, eyes wide open, I was honestly shook by how good it was. Totally worth it!

Biggest fan of Yakun for years. Experience at this outlet was horrendous to say the least.
Was queuing for breakfast on Friday morning when I noticed that the queue was not moving at all for a good 20mins and more. The staff were busy clearing online orders, and blatantly ignored the man waiting in front of the counter. The in-store queue started to get longer and longer, but still the staff ignored us.
Finally, when I spoke up to remind the staff that we have been waiting for very long and that they should respond to the man instead of the incoming NEW orders, the staff took his order and payment, then continued with the online orders instead of the man in store.
And when the people in the queue started to protest, one of the staff actually yelled back that "cannot wait, don't buy". How appalling is this behaviour?!
I understand that F&B service is very tiring and online orders may have a certain quota and time to meet before getting penalised. But the response? Ridiculous.
I hope the management can look into these two staff (20-30s), and also how their workflow is around online and in-store orders. Stop the apps if the physical queues are getting busy. Respond to physical queues before new orders come in.
Kudos to the senior staff (40-60s) who tried to help the situation, appreciated.

Waited more than 20 mins for my sandwich. Think the management needs to consider more manpower and in the event of large orders, how to manage when there is big order with the current orders. Can do a mix of orders instead of settling just the big order first and the rest (with much smaller order) have to wait for a long period.
