Guthrie House | Cold Storage, Bengawan Solo and Sixth Avenue MRT Guide

Guthrie House is at 1 Fifth Avenue, Singapore 268802. Two practical destinations confirmed in current retailer listings are Cold Storage at #01-05 and Bengawan Solo at #01-06. It is a useful Sixth Avenue-area stop for groceries or a specific cake-and-kueh purchase.

The retailers publish different hours: Cold Storage lists 8am–10pm daily, while Bengawan Solo lists 9am–8.30pm daily. Check the store you need rather than assuming that one shop’s late closing time applies to its neighbour.

Did you know that the address is Fifth Avenue even though the nearest station is called Sixth Avenue? SBS Transit lists Guthrie House under Sixth Avenue MRT Exit A. Keeping the building address, station name and unit together makes a first visit much simpler.

SECTION 1 OF 5

1. Use the retailer’s own listing

For Cold Storage, the official store locator supplies the Guthrie House address and current trading hours. An older directory may use a different retail label or time; check the live retailer page before relying on it.

For Bengawan Solo, the brand’s store page identifies the ground-floor unit and its separate schedule. A general search result for the chain does not necessarily refer to this outlet.

If you are travelling for one particular product, contact the shop about availability. Published opening hours tell you when a business expects to trade, not what will remain in stock when you arrive.

2. Plan an ordinary grocery visit differently from a collection

For everyday groceries, decide what you need before entering and bring suitable shopping bags. If you plan other stops, leave bulky or perishable purchases towards the end.

For a pre-arranged cake or gift collection, follow the order confirmation. Check that it names Guthrie House and the agreed collection date rather than another branch.

Give yourself room for a changed plan. If an item is unavailable, choose an acceptable alternative or arrange another collection instead of making the entire outing depend on an unconfirmed product.

3. Approach from Sixth Avenue MRT Exit A

SBS Transit names Guthrie House among Exit A’s destinations and lists a taxi stand at that exit. Use current station signs to orient yourself towards the building.

Its lift information describes connections via the pedestrian-bridge level. If step-free access matters, check the exact route rather than assuming the shortest stair route will work.

Our Sixth Avenue MRT guide explains the exit distinction in more detail. Allow time for the final approach, particularly when carrying shopping.

4. Keep Fifth Avenue and Sixth Avenue straight

When booking a car or sending a meeting location, use 1 Fifth Avenue as the address. A station name is useful context but not a substitute for the destination.

Confirm where the other person will wait: outside the building, at a particular shop or at the station. Those are different meeting instructions.

For children learning to navigate, this is a friendly example of why names need context. The building can be on one avenue while a nearby transport stop carries another avenue’s name.

5. Finish the errand on your own terms

Guthrie House does not need to become a whole-day itinerary. A successful visit may simply be a collected cake, a completed grocery list and an easy trip home.

If you want a meal in the wider area, choose the restaurant separately and check its address and schedule. Do not assume that a nearby business belongs to the same building.

A small errand can still feel pleasantly local. Knowing the correct unit and hours lets you spend less time searching and more time enjoying the rest of the day.
