Character themed cafes are not new in Singapore but each time a new one comes up, everyone gets all excited to find out what is in store. While they are not known to serve delicious grub, many still love character themed cafes for its atmosphere and creatively designed food and beverages.
It really comes down to individual preferences to decide if it is worth the splurge as dishes sold in these character-themed cafes usually do not come cheap. However, they make the most Instagram-worthy pictures. What’s your take?
Here are 7 Character Themed Cafes To Check Out In Singapore.
#1 CHARACTERS CAFE
Characters Cafe is a small and cosy eatery you can find in Dhoby Xchange. The cafe first started out in a 3D Rilakkuma theme that had everyone going crazy about.

Our island’s first DC Comics Super Heroes Cafe opened its doors to public last year. Elaborately decorated with superhero murals and life-sized figurines, this is the place for all DC superhero fans.
The cafe dishes out desserts and drinks that will remind you of your favourite superheroes such as The Flash and Wonder Woman. Their menu happens to be one of the most expensive among the lot, though.

Also, we are excited about the Alola Region Volcano as the Pokéball lid will uncover a dessert in the shape of a volcano made of chocolate ice cream cone.
