We celebrated my daughter’s birthday recently here together with my parents. The restaurant staff were very warm and hospitable and ensured we have a good experiencing dining here. Wilfred and his team of staff helped us with the birthday cake and even sang a birthday song for the birthday girl. Food was nice and warm, everyone enjoyed the food and ambience here. Definitely will come back again to support! :)

This is a great restaurant tucked in the Tampines neighborhood, a gem in the midst of the ocean of HDB dwellers. We had dinner yesterday evening and it was an experience that I will never forget, the delicious food, the great atmosphere, the excellent customer service level and the hospitality that greeted us the minute we stepped into the restaurant. What is more important is that this restaurant offers opportunities for graduates of Pathlight School who aren't able to secure employment to develop a skillet working in this community partnership restaurant. It not only provides career opportunities but also galvanized their confidence, build up teamwork and leadership skills and further shaping their personalities. Indeed, Professor Brawn Cafe chain restaurants is an innovative approach to help challenging individuals merge into our society without being sidelined. My rating is a 5 out of 5 for the food, the atmosphere, the customer service level, the warm hospitality and most importantly, the cause for which this restaurant chain stands for. Oh, also an ex-Executive Chef who worked in a 5 star hotel at your service. What more can you ask for?

A very lovely place to hang out and celebrate birthdays! Staff here are attentive and prompt. Special mention to Nizam and Cynthia. The rest of the staff are very well trained too. Food is delicious especially the beef cheeks. And the desserts which are made in-house are yummy especially the brownies. Will be back.

First time here with my family and experience was very pleasant, owing to the attentive and courteous staff. The place was really spacious and great for conversations as tables were spaced apart sufficiently. Enjoyed my fish & chips and the hazelnut ice cream that came with the sea meal. We also ordered waffles, batter was awesome and crispiness was just right! Definitely going back again!

Ordered the dinner set with fish and chips as the main. Soup came first, followed by the main and dessert—nicely paced. The fish and chips were very well done, crispy and satisfying. Staff were polite and well-trained, making it a pleasant dining experience.

Quiet cafe with ample seating. Service was good. Food is great for the pricing. Theres a corner where they sell merchandise from The Art Faculty (social enterprise by Autism Resource Centre ) by Pathlight, v artistic designs I would say. Do come & support this business ;)

Prof Brawn serves a great social cause but unfortunately the food itself doesn’t really stand on its own. Chicken chop and fish and chips were on par with kopitiam standard. Burger so-so. Do still give this place a try but temper your expectations; I believe many of the 5 star reviews are inflated by sympathy.
