Third Place introduces high-end café concepts and tapas bars at remote industrial areas

Industrial areas often have a bad rep when it comes to food, often with folks complaining about how they’d rather consume tyres at the nearby car repair shop than dine on the fish/chicken/beef/mystery meat offered at the coffeeshops.

The latest coming of the Select Group’s Third Place dining concept aims to disrupt all those notions — the brand’s latest installation at Jurong’s medical manufacturing facility MedTech fuses an eating house, café and bar into one place, ensuring that dining and relaxing options at industrial areas don’t have to be that dreadful.

Now open at MedTech and soon at Tuas 7, Third Place is an eating enclave in mornings and afternoons, but when evening arrives, the premise transforms into a super swanky tapas and zi char bar.

The enclave’s menu aren’t to be trifled with either — signature dishes such as the Salted Egg Cheese Crab, Pork Rib with Honey Peach, and the Red Wine Alaska Crab Leg are among the many gourmet offerings available to go along with a curated but affordable selection of craft beers and ciders.

Third Place’s outlet at eco-business park CleanTech may not have the bar at night — only combining the eating house and café concept — but it still offers something refreshingly different than the usual industrial area dining options.

“We believe that industrial areas have the potential to serve more than the working crowd in the immediate vicinity,” remarked Select Group Limited Managing Director Vincent tan.

“By introducing Third Place, we hope that the multi-faceted experience the concept brings to diners will be able to revitalise these non-traditional dining locations, and make them destinations for food enthusiasts, families and friends to explore.”

More details about Third Place and its various operating hours and locations available on their official website.
