PS.Cafe, the upscale Singapore cafe and restaurant group known for its lush interiors, truffle fries and dessert counter, draws plenty of halal questions from diners planning a nicer meal out. The register answer is at the top of this page; here is the context around it.
What PS.Cafe says
PS.Cafe is upfront about its position on its own online store. The terms page at store.pscafe.com states: “Our baked goods are not halal certified as we have amongst our product range, items containing alcohol and gelatin.” The same page notes that orders for alcohol require proof of age, which reflects that the group serves alcoholic drinks as part of its normal menu. The brand makes no Muslim-owned or no-pork-no-lard claims, and it does not label individual dishes as halal. That is a clear, published statement, and it is more direct than most uncertified brands manage.
What this means for you
By the brand’s own account its bakes are uncertified and its range includes alcohol and gelatine, so there is nothing to verify against the register. Dining at PS.Cafe is therefore a personal judgement about ingredients rather than a checkable certification status. If certification is your standard, treat PS.Cafe as unverified rather than guessing dish by dish, and re-check the register from time to time, since brands do enter it when they certify premises.
Certified alternatives
If you want a proper sit-down meal or dessert with a certificate you can actually check, start from these register-backed pages:
- Certified restaurants - the register category for full-service dining.
- Swensen’s - a certified family restaurant covering Western mains and an ice cream dessert list.
- The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf - a certified cafe chain for the coffee-and-cake occasion.
To check any specific outlet, use the register search with the outlet name or the mall’s postal code.
