There is a lady staff member in charge of the dessert stall who keeps complaining and talking loudly across the cafe, making the whole Ya Kun Cafe very noisy and uninviting. Every other staff member is working hard and doing their job quietly.
Thu Lee
Very overrated place and overrated meal. So expensive for 4 **slices** of toast with some spread, house coffee, and 2 cold eggs. I wonder why people have to line up for more than 45 minutes for this simple meal that you can make at home. Such a disappointing breakfast.
Justin Yap
Given that Ya Kun is a chain restaurant, this really should have been run better, especially since it's located in Clarke Quay Central. When we arrived, there was a line of maybe 5 people – no big deal, and the line should go quick. Wrong! This line was abysmally slow; the lack of staff resulted in the uncle who took orders also having to make the drinks one at a time. Of course, I don't blame the uncle, but I blame management. The food itself was the perfect kaya as expected, but my goodness, I won't be back here for sure. I don't have a spare hour and a half to casually get food and wait.

After doing some research, I read that locals love kaya toast, so we decided to try it for breakfast. The service was somewhat unfriendly. It seemed the older women hated working there. I thought they were far too old to be throwing temper tantrums. If they didn't like their job, they should have studied for a better job. Tables were clean, but you had to return your tray. We ordered a set with peanut butter toast and four soft-boiled eggs. The result was just okay. It wasn't exceptionally delicious; it was rather mediocre. I think we should have just gotten some food at one of the hawker centers instead.

Nothing too fancy. You get what you expect. It was quite busy here when I arrived. There was a line that never seemed to disappear! Turnover of seated customers is pretty quick, as everyone tends to get their food, sit, eat quickly, and then go. No one really sits and chills out. I found the soy sauce somehow really salty here. I didn't add much, but it felt like I was eating salt water. So, be mindful with how much soy sauce you put in your eggs!

I really loved the Kaya toast and the local breakfast experience. Lovely old people work there. I became addicted to the toast.

Context: Breakfast on a holiday The Kaya Toast set truly reflects the rich culture and history. My children were delighted by it. The combination of the toast, egg, and soy sauce creates a well-balanced flavor profile that I enjoyed. If I had to offer feedback, I found the coffee a bit lacking in strength. It might not provide the kick for those planning a busy day. This place has become our favorite, and we look forward to returning whenever possible.

I tried Ya Kun Kaya Toast for the first time, and it was amazing! The toast was perfectly crispy, with a generous spread of sweet kaya and butter. I had it with soft-boiled eggs and a cup of rich, fragrant coffee. Such a perfect combination! It was my first time tasting kaya, and I loved its unique blend of coconut and pandan flavors. Simple, delicious, and definitely worth a try if you’re in Singapore!
Chee Pei Ting
Nice milk tea with French toast and kaya on the side for dipping, plus two eggs in another tray, as a combo at a decent price of S$6.5. The only drawback was the table was not cleaned properly, with a stain on it from the last customer.
Chin Yee Loh
Adequate seating, though you have to wait quite a bit for your order when it's crowded. It seems like there are tons of Japanese tourists here, which I found fascinating! Great to stop by for breakfast! 🥰💕

Yakun is a beloved Singaporean café famous for its iconic kaya toast—a crispy, buttery delight slathered with fragrant coconut-egg kaya and a thick slice of cold butter. Served alongside silky soft-boiled eggs and strong, aromatic kopi (local coffee) or teh (tea), it offers a quintessential Singaporean breakfast experience. The toast strikes the perfect balance between crisp and fluffy, while the kaya delivers its signature floral sweetness. While the old-school decor adds nostalgic charm, be prepared for crowds during peak hours—the small space gets packed with both locals and tourists, creating a lively but noisy atmosphere. Service remains efficient despite the bustle, and the affordable prices make it easy to understand why this remains a decades-old favorite. For a more relaxed visit, try coming mid-afternoon when the breakfast rush has faded.

Kopi O is robust and flavorful as usual, but what stands out at this outlet are the desserts. The Mango Coconut Jelly Snow Ice ($7.90) is really good, with very fine ice, compared to most other Snow Ice in Singapore.
Joey
Recently tried the kaya toast and coffee at Ya Kun Toast, and both were really enjoyable. The toast was nicely crisp with just the right amount of sweet kaya, and it paired well with the coffee. It can feel a bit rich after the meal, however.

Ya Kun／亞坤 is a popular spot for kaya toast, a classic Singaporean breakfast and snack. Most locations serve toast, coffee, and tea (hot or iced), and some also offer local favorites like laksa and nasi lemak. Dine-in or To-go. **Kaya Toast with Butter** Crispy toast filled with Ya Kun’s signature kaya — a smooth, sweet jam made from eggs, coconut milk, sugar, and pandan — plus a slab of lightly salted butter. The mix of sweet and salty is simple and comforting. Locals love dipping it into soft-boiled eggs with a splash of sweet soy sauce. So good! **Kopi** Strong and aromatic, Singapore-style kopi is made from robusta beans roasted with sugar and margarine, then brewed and filtered through a cotton sock. Bold, smooth, and full of character. **Tip:** Visit the Far East Square flagship store for charcoal-grilled kaya toast — extra fragrant and delicious.
Mei Chong
Really cool place. The toast set meal, which includes 4 slices of toast with jam and butter, 2 runny eggs, and coffee/tea, is such a great way to start the day. Other variations are also available, such as peanut butter, French toast, hard-boiled eggs, or cold coffee. They also serve plain toast. The coffee is a must-try.
