More than a decade ago, it seemed almost impossible to simply sip a cup of coffee and enjoy a good treat after a long day or week. However in the recent years, cafés are gradually blooming in the little red dot that we live in. Having troubles finding a good café near you? Here is a guide of 10 cafés to visit in Singapore to accommodate 10 different occasions.

1. Feeling lazy?


Hidden under high-rise housing buildings in the east, this café will perk you up with its refreshing ambience and food. Singaporeans are always taken in by good food and what’s more a reasonably-priced menu? If one cuisine is inadequate for you, To-Gather café provides you with a fusion of cuisines, causing you to be spoiled for choices!

2. Picture-perfect.


Visiting a café is incomplete without a picture. Chock Full of Beans is known for its latte art and provides a wide variety of drinks to suit your individual preference. It is one of the few cafés in Singapore that does 3D-latte art. However, what’s a good meal without food? Daily combo-sets are also available for you to have a complete experience at Chock Full of Beans.

Moreover, the café makes it a point to constantly change the items available on the menu for you to have a bit of everything!

4. Good food, better company.


There is never an end to food with a great company of friends to hang out with. Group Therapy is the perfect place for gatherings or catch-up sessions with your friends. Situated on the second level of a shop house, this café allows you to escape from the hectic Singaporean lifestyle and is surrounded by a light-hearted atmosphere for you to unwind and relax.

6. Creamy. Sweet. Delightful.


Waffles and ice cream is the main highlight of dessert after a meal. Think no further, a neighbourhood café – Creamier, is the ideal dessert place to go.

Why settle for an ice cream scoop elsewhere when you can have the best of both worlds here?

The unique feature of this café is the placement of it under a hostel. It is dimly lit, creating a “chillax” ambience for a nice chat over any meal of the day with your friends. Having an array of gourmet burgers, pizzas and sandwiches, a small bite like this can satisfy you the entire day.
