I chanced upon this & was utterly charmed by their fleet of vintage Kombi Vans. Think vintage-inspired or a diner-inspired party theme that can go both ways for a little girl’s or boy’s birthday!
This diner offers Thai & Chinese cuisine with old-school recipes passed on from their parents’ legacy Koon Kee Restaurant. Private events can seat 60 guests, with up to 80 standing guests for cocktail parties. Apart from their diner, the garage can be rented out to accommodate more guests.
Private events packages include venue rentals, buffet-style catering, drinks & more.

We love the Food for Thought cafes and the causes they support & think this could be an awesome way to introduce your bubs’ to these causes & create a party theme that can also support sustainable living.
With café outlets at the Botanic Gardens, National Museum of Singapore & at Queen Street, the cafes are sleek & minimalist, thus providing you with a blank canvas for your party theme.

A cosy café-bar nestled in the Arab Street area, this is one of my favorite cafes to sit back with a book while enjoying a plate of wonderful goodness in the form of brunch at Symmetry Cafe.
I do love it for small, cosy gatherings & I could see this being a great venue for a hipster-inspired 1st birthday party theme! Serves French-styled sharing plates, global mains & weekend brunch.

With the myriad of articles out there sharing unique birthday party activities & venues, we didn’t see much of cooking parties and thought we’d include it!
Although one-year olds and toddlers can’t participate, we think it’s a nice change for mamas to get a break and enjoy a cooking demo & try their hands at making something delish!
Best part yet, the Tott Party Planners are on hand to personally curate a menu that suits your needs at the Tott Bistro after.

Last but not least, I had to throw in this because I do love the whimsical feel of EatPlayLove café. It reminds me of childhood storybook readings, little tea parties with our dolls and lots of crafting fun.
EatPlayLove offers Thai-Western cuisine, with a menu suited for kids as well. Their party packages require a minimum of 25 pax with a maximum capacity of 75.
Best part? The café provides free-flow of craft materials in their craft corner for kids to play freely.
