Chanced upon this bakery hidden in a corner. Took a look at the bread selection and thought they looked good so bought the spinach cheese and salty sundried tomato breads to try. Turned out they were really yummy. My husband enjoyed them so much that he dragged me back over the weekend a few days later. This time we bought the herb potato bread and polish baguette (which is available only on weekends) and both were again very yummy. Hence, I'm here to give my review cos I hope more people will come visit this bakery. Being in a slightly obscure location, it may have missed a lot of potential customers. I sure hope its business blossoms cos its really quite a good artisan bakery

  TL;DR: The bakers are continuously trying new formulations and tweaks to existing recipes. So, lots to try and re-try! Cool!👍👏 Update Sept 2018: My new favourite- Charcoal nut casia. It has 3 types of nuts- almond, walnut and pecan in charcoal bread, savoury. Has a hint of garlic bread in it. Best eaten fresh. Update Nov 2017: Tried new breads: flaxseed cranberry- you can taste the mix of flavours, they complement quite well; oh, did I mention the cheese in the middle? 😋 sesame peanut- 👍; Tried taste sample of Christmas 2017 offerings- Tasty, and not too sweet … No spoilers here!! 😉 Still love the Castella original; also the ham cheese donut (cream cheese … 'nuff said). Updated Sep2017: Current favorite: Margarina French 😋 New Offering and the current Rage: Castella cake with variations of original, chocolate, cheese, green tea. 😋 Updated June2017: Gotta try (🌟🌟) Cranberry loaf; Orange brioche; Poolish baquette (weekends only); Banana cake; Garlic bread; Fruit rye loaf; Sesame walnut; Sun-dried tomato Foccacia; Potato loaf; Honourable mentions ⭐. 🌟>Five grain loaf. Tasty, with a slightly crunchy thin crust. Heavenly smell ( I got it off the rack, still warm)☺. ⭐>green tea anpan (adzuki) bun. tasty, not too sweet. They use anpan paste & beans imported from Japan. 👍 🌟>The matcha melon bun is very fragrant, and kind of sweet 😜 because of the icing sugar on top. 🌟🌟>Try the Poolish baquette- baked only on weekends. After chewing it a while, the aftertaste is heavenly! 😝 🌟>Banana chocolate bread- you can taste both, but esp the choc; it's sweet. good for a sweet tooth! 🐹 🌟>Honey wholemeal. Nice, not sweet at all. Soft bread. Hint of the honey. 🌟> Japan Sweet Potato bun. Nice purple soft bread, has yellow sweet potato filling with chunks of sweet potato peeking through the bun! Now has Cheese innards!! 🌟🌟> Fruit rye loaf (rye bread with walnut, orange peel, fruit bits). Crusty with a body of mixed texture. Nice.👍 🌟>Pumpkin red bean bun- red bean with piece of pumpkin. 🌟🌟>Orange brioche. Ahhhh, nice, with bits of orange. 🌟🌟> Cranberry loaf. Nice sized loaf, tasty wiith the cranberry giving flavour. Update: now comes with cheese innards. Ahhhh!! the best combi!! 😝 🌟🌟>Sun-dried Tomato Foccacia. 🚌 likes it; just like pizza in a bread. ☺ Update: now there's also Sun-dried Tomato salty bread. 👍 🌟🌟>Banana cake- tasty, spongy cake. 😝 >Red date bun. 🌟🌟>Garlic bread. to die for. 😝 🌟>Prune loaf. Uses a levain starter, similar to the wholemeal baquette; apparently takes a longer ferment, like the Poolish baquette. Bread with a mouthful of real prune! 🌟🌟-> Potato loaf. sampled this. chewy, faint taste of potato. Crazy yummy!! 🌟🌟>Sesame walnut. This is great texture and taste. Can eat this for a main meal, in place of rice! 👍 -> The green tea loaf- premium flour, different from the green tea anpan bun (which uses normal flour). -> Luo Han Guo loaf- soft and chewy like the honey wholemeal.

  Very fresh breads and quite affordable in their quality, Now is my always go to bakery shop for my breakfast! Pair with coffee/tea for your perfect tea time/breakfast!! Highly recommended!! 🥰🥰

  This barkey place two signboard which mention $1 bun is totally misleading which non of their bun are $1. This is obvious not right. Sort ppl to boycott their business. Thou some loaf of bread taste good.

  Chanced upon this bakery a few months ago and didn't think too much of it as it looked like "just another bakery". A major mistake would have been made if I hadn't stepped in that day. They have a wide variety of bread available, though I usually get the same few (the ham and cheese loaf is a personal favourite). It's now a must visit when I'm in the area.

  Love the cheesecakes (all flavours) light & fluffy, Also the red velvet cream rolls, and the chocolate bread. But not the fruit tart.. too much tart.. prefer to have more custard/cream. Unfortunately no picture of that..

  A lot of items are sold out by late afternoon. Recommend the sun-dried tomato bun, its so fragrant!

  bought a few bakes on different weekends before leaving a review here. The chocolate cube loaf is awesome very yummy indeed! purchased 3x already! the vietnamese baguette isn’t worth buying as i’ve tasted better! earl grey cranberry round loaf wasn’t anything fancy as there isn’t a hint of earl grey at all… soft texture but in general meh. individual buns like sausage roll, coffee bun lack a punch…can’t compete with the likes of Four Leaf’s even. overall find this truly personal preference in flavours and textures. but if you have a thing for artisan bakeries and have a palette for good breads…. Oishi is alright for its prices… i wouldn’t pay anything more for sure.

  A hidden gem of a bakery in Toa Payoh! Been going back ever since I chanced upon this bakery. Favourite of all is fruit rye mixed nuts bread, sun-dried tomato bread, magarina French bread - love the crusty outer but soft inner. Very yummy! Oh! Don't forgot to order some Florentine too! Full of almond slices 😋

  Ever since discovering this bakery, I’ve been in love! The store is about 5 min sheltered walk from Toa Payoh MRT (and a good 30 min train commute for me which I’d happily take). The staffs are very friendly and helpful at all times of the day. Highly recommend checking them out!! My personal faves (that I must get every time I’m here): QQ bread, sun dried tomato bread (which gets sold out early) and banana bread. I’ve tried many of their other bakes as well and haven’t once been disappointed. The QQ bread may look small but it’s such a gem with its chewy mochi texture, filled with super nutty black sesame - the best of this bread that I’ve tried in SG!
