You may have heard the news by now: Apartment Coffee has officially become the 6th best coffee shop in the world and the best in Asia for the second consecutive year.

The Singaporean roastery secured its spot on the World’s Top 100 Coffee Shops 2026 list through a combination of international panel evaluations and public votes, further cementing its reputation as one of the finest cafes on our shores.

If you haven’t visited Apartment Coffee before, it’s time to fix that. They’re located along 139 Selegie Road, a short six-minute walk from Rochor MRT Station.

The cafe is helmed by Yeo Qing He, an award-winning barista who placed in numerous coffee brewing competitions before this latest accolade, including sixth place at the World Brewers Cup in 2018.

Regulars love their seasonal menu as there’s always something new to explore each time. Filter coffee is the focus here, but you can also get your favourite espresso-based White (price TBD) or Black (price TBD) if you prefer. Look forward to trying beans from around the world, including less common options.
