Burnt Ends Bakery Review: Wood-Fired Sourdough, Four Days a Week (2026)
Worth planning around, because it is shut more than it is open
This is the bakery arm of Burnt Ends, the Michelin-starred barbecue restaurant, and it is a separate address at Dempsey rather than a counter inside it. The distinguishing feature is a wood-fired bread oven, which the bakery describes as the only one of its kind in Singapore, and the bread is what the oven exists for. Coffee is its own house blend. The thing to know before travelling is the schedule: it trades four days a week.
you want wood-fired sourdough and pastries, and you can get to Dempsey between Thursday and Sunday.

Is Burnt worth it? The math
The drinks board is the clearest pricing in this category: $4.25 for an espresso and $6 for a flat white is Dempsey-adjacent rather than Dempsey-priced, and the $10 signature drinks are the only real markup. Bread and pastries are counter-priced and move, so they are not listed here. The 4.1 across 254 reviews is the lowest rating in this batch, and it is worth reading properly: the complaints cluster on availability and the short week, not on the baking.
What they serve
- Wood-fired sourdough and breads
- Doughnuts, cookies, tarts and pastries
- House-blend coffee
- Pantry items including marmalade, sea salt and compote
- Catering for small gatherings up to corporate groups
Worth ordering
- The wood-fired bread oven, which the bakery states is the only one in Singapore
- The house coffee blend, priced well below the Dempsey average
- Catering, which is the least-known part of what they do
Good to know
What diners actually say
Bread and pastries get the praise, and the wood-fired oven is the thing people single out. The 4.1 is dragged down by two practical complaints rather than by the baking: the four-day week catches people who travel out to Dempsey without checking, and popular items sell out. Anyone treating it as the Michelin-starred Burnt Ends and arriving expecting barbecue is also in the low ratings, which is a naming problem more than a bakery problem.
