Fresh bread sits at the heart of everything GROON does. Sharing a leafy courtyard with Cheevit Cheeva and ROB’s Berry, this Nimman cafe pairs artisan baking with an all-day brunch menu built around organic ingredients, quality produce, and thoughtful preparation. From natural yeast loaves and bagels to open toasts, pancakes, and signature brunch plates, the menu remains firmly rooted in the bakery. Combined with a calm, beautifully designed setting, it creates a cafe that feels equally suited to a morning coffee, a leisurely brunch, or an afternoon catch-up with friends.
A Relaxed Courtyard Setting
Set back from the street behind an elegant courtyard, GROON Bread & Brunch Cafe has a calm, welcoming presence. Soft off-white and taupe tones, tall arched windows, and gentle architectural curves combine to create an exterior that feels both contemporary and approachable.
A mature tree anchors the courtyard, surrounded by tropical greenery, hanging vines, and outdoor seating that blends seamlessly with the muted palette of the paving and furniture. Overhead string lights add a touch of charm, while the curved brickwork underfoot softens the space and enhances its relaxed European cafe feel.
At the centre, the understated GROON signage sits neatly above the entrance, while one of the large front windows reveals rows of freshly baked bread inside—offering an immediate sense of the cafe’s bakery focus before you even step through the door. The result is an exterior that feels carefully considered yet effortless, balancing contemporary design with the warmth of a neighbourhood bakery.
Warm Textures & Mediterranean Influences
Inside, GROON continues the same soft, understated aesthetic established by the exterior. The space combines warm wood tones, textured cream walls, and gentle architectural curves to create an atmosphere that feels both refined and comfortable. There’s also a subtle Mediterranean feel running through the interior, particularly in the sun-washed plaster textures, soft arches, and slatted ceiling details that bring warmth and character to the otherwise minimalist design.
Natural materials play a major role throughout. Wooden furniture, woven cafe chairs, and padded bench seating add texture and warmth without making the space feel busy. The slatted ceiling treatment overhead subtly echoes the shaded pergolas often found in Mediterranean outdoor dining spaces, helping the room feel airy and relaxed.
The open coffee and bakery counter forms the focal point of the cafe, framed by rich timber cabinetry and simple pendant lighting that reinforce GROON’s calm, design-led identity. A large timber-framed window behind the counter offers a glimpse into the working kitchen, creating a welcome sense of transparency and activity. Meanwhile, the bread-lined shelves beside the front windows bring a quiet bakery charm to the space and subtly connect the interior back to the street outside.
Seating is varied enough to suit different visits, from cosy corners for quiet coffees to larger tables ideal for a leisurely brunch with friends.
Fresh Bakes & Brunch Favourites at GROON
The menu reinforces GROON’s identity as a bread-first brunch cafe, with its own freshly baked sourdough, natural yeast loaves, bagels, and shio pan woven throughout much of the menu. Rather than focusing solely on traditional breakfast fare, the offering spans all-day brunch favourites, open toasts, sandwiches, salads, pasta dishes, and rice plates, giving it broader appeal as both a cafe and casual dining destination.
The brunch selection centres on organic eggs, avocado, smoked salmon, and house-made breads, with signature dishes including the Groon Brunch, Shakshuka, and Turkish Eggs. Sweet and savoury pancakes also feature, from the berry-filled Granny’s Pancake to the more indulgent Bacon Pancake served with fresh cream and maple syrup. Elsewhere, there are more substantial options such as Truffle Wagyu Open Bread, truffle pasta, and wagyu fried rice, alongside lighter choices including Greek yogurt bowls, fresh salads, and fruit-forward dishes. The menu also carries subtle Mediterranean influences, particularly through ingredients such as feta, Greek yogurt, olive oil, dill, and capers, which appear across several dishes.
Drinks are equally varied. Alongside a full range of classic espresso-based coffees, GROON offers a collection of signature coffee creations, ceremonial-grade matcha drinks, fresh juices, kombucha, and house beverages designed to complement its health-conscious approach. The coffee programme uses a Brazil–Thailand medium roast with smooth chocolate and almond notes, while the bakery counter showcases the breads and pastries that sit at the heart of the concept.
Overall, the menu feels thoughtfully curated rather than overly ambitious, balancing comforting brunch staples with lighter, ingredient-led dishes while keeping GROON’s freshly baked bread firmly in the spotlight.
A Shared Cafe Collective
GROON forms part of a thoughtfully connected trio alongside neighbouring dessert spots Cheevit Cheeva and ROB’s Berry, with all three sharing the same courtyard-style setting. Although each operates as its own concept, the spaces flow naturally together, allowing visitors to order from different venues and relax anywhere within the shared seating areas—giving the whole complex the feel of a small, design-led cafe collective rather than three entirely separate shops.
