Best coffee cafes in Singapore
My friends often joke that my blood is made up of iced coffee. It’s true, I am a self-proclaimed coffee fanatic. If you are like me and subsist on a diet of caffeine, check out our list of the best coffee cafes in Singapore for a good brew. Some of them serve food too, if you want bites to go along with your favourite coffee. Many of them also roast their own beans, so you can take home a bag or two to make your own coffee at home.

1. Big Short Coffee
After going viral in 2024, Big Short Coffee has kept its buzz by offering a creative and stunning lineup of drinks. The menu here is seasonal, which means their items change from time to time. Currently, they have their Spring 2025 Menu, which includes Dog Days ($9), a refreshing concoction of espresso, strawberry, clarified cookie milk, fig leaf hibiscus tea, and cherry wood smoke. If you can appreciate a creamy, bittersweet drink, get the Crema Al Matcha ($9), featuring ceremonial Kyoto uji matcha, condensed milk, Madagascar vanilla bean, and a sweet house-made coffee honeycomb.

2. June Coffee
Helmed by the same team behind September Coffee is June Coffee, another cafe that’s gained traction on social media. If you’re a fan of pistachio like us, try the Iced Pistachio Latte ($9++); this smooth, nutty beverage comes with a thick layer of pistachio cream atop a latte base. Alternatively, their Iced Kinako Matcha ($8++) is equally delicious, starring a robust matcha latte topped with sea salt soy foam and kinako powder. For a winning combination of earthy and nutty flavours, we recommend the Iced Black Sesame Latte ($8++) instead.

A Black Espresso Coffee starts at $6++, but we highly recommend the Cold Brew ($8.50++), a filter-brewed coffee prepared with single-origin beans. The selection varies regularly too.

I was ecstatic when %Arabica first arrived on our shores with their flagship at Arab Street, having patronised the OG store in Kyoto before. Their prices are on the steeper end, but worth the splurge every once in a while.
