Lovely coffee from a cozy café tucked in Hong Lim Complex. Prices are really reasonable as well. The barista is amicable and makes an effort to strike up conversations with patrons. Further, it’s obvious that he is both knowledgeable and passionate with beans - explaining the profiles and notes of each type available and how he recommends to consume them.

Definitely some top level coffee. I love that they put in the effort to make a nice sticker and put it on their takeaway cup. Place inside is small and have limited seats against the wall. The aroma of the coffee is strong so if you like that smell it’ll be what you’ll be smelling when you’re inside. Had their speciality coffee - hot osmanthus coffee and taro iced coffee. But we’re good with slight hints of each of the ingredients.

Hidden Gem is a phrase used too frequently but it's super apt for this place. Very cozy + owner is knowledgeable and personable. Coffee is excellent with beans that are not commonly found around. Excellent experience 10/10

Recently I saw YouTuber came to this coffee shop and tried the taro latte. So today I also come here and try the taro latte, it’s good to drink, and the taste of body is strong. I’ll note this store to my favorite list.

I love the coffee here. It is rich,not sour, smells awesome and super addictive. Service is good too. This is a small cafe with barely enough seats for 5 to 7 people. As observed, the customers are mostly friendly and considerate.

It truly is a hidden gem! The place is small but cozy, and there’s surprisingly quite a lot of menu options to choose from. Barista is very friendly and works very fast too despite working alone and serving many people when we visited. Tried their iced white, with medium roast coffee grounds. Has a nice chocolatey and earthy flavor which I love. Their pastries are unexpectedly very good too! Pain au chocolat is good and flaky, chocolate hazelnut cruffin had a nice texture and filling too.
