kwik.buckAugust 27, 2016Great coffee, new one of the worlds best coffee places according to wallpaper. Food is alright.
Stefan LesserOctober 5, 2016Good coffee, average food. Huge variety of coffee drinks, including siphon and cold brews, as well as some interesting "blends". The dessert and cocktails section in the menu also looked interesting.
Jenny Y.November 1, 2016Iced latte in a beaker 😻 churro is average tho stated as signature on the menu. Good ambience and service. Wifi password: coffeetime (last updated 1st November 2016)
pin leeJune 17, 2019Tried d impossible burger- it does taste meaty but not as beefy as I thot it would. Interesting n healthy option 4 non-meat eaters. Nice ambience . Not cheap @$26- Okinawa latte is delicious, so is the agave/pepper latte, black coffee, etc. Food is sub-par and overpriced; give it a miss.
- Kars AlfrinkJanuary 11, 2016Attractive interior although you might find it is trying too hard to look steampunk industrial even though you're in a mall. The coffee is prepared correctly but the taste is underwhelming.
Kristin M-OApril 3, 2017Specialty coffees on offer - but people go here for the quiet decor & ambience - the pepper agave was interesting.
SatMarch 10, 2016Excellent coffee, very good brunch food and great space! Loved the scrambled eggs with crayfish.
JaneJanuary 8, 2016Nice decor, horribly overpriced. $26 for a tiny thin crust Margherita pizza? You must be kidding. Coffee is pretty good.
Vincent AngJuly 6, 2018Coffee is really good here ... service friendly but can get slow cos it’s crowded on weekends
Sarah HoeApril 12, 2016Tried a few variety of eggs but none can make it. Skillet eggs were overcooked and dry. I believe the reason is because chef baked it through instead of cooking over medium heat. Very disappointing.
Great long blacks, but getting served can be a challenge, even if they’re not busy.
Riri MesticaSeptember 28, 2016Good Coffee of the months, special breakfast menu, coffee was a bit longer than it takes but worth to wait
Elizabeth LeeOctober 11, 2015From Hong Kong, this coffee cafe serves really smooth flat white. Can't wait for it to open end of 2015.
Igor ZAugust 6, 2017Tend to close way earlier than their hours say. Refused to take orders, even to go, as early as 8:20 while officially open till 9:30. And this happens regularly. Such a shame! Coffee is good though.
Tash ZAugust 23, 2016Do not bother with their Academics breakfast. Look at the portion of Cinco Jotas, generous much?
Vanessa QuekDecember 22, 2017Food is average. Go for the coffees!!! The pepper one is suprisingly my favorite now.
Staff attitude problems. Just takes one bad apple. You're not doing me a favor by making my coffee. You're doing your job as a barista
Wendy LeeAugust 30, 2017No order or serving 1 hour before closing time? Seriously not even a cuppa? If not because of limited choice around, might not try my luck twice.
The place can feel understaffed at times. However, the coffee is first rate.
Nigel KongMay 29, 2017Don't believe the hype. At. All. There's a Nespresso boutique at ION. Just saying.
Ring A-lingJuly 5, 2016Very Overpriced tiny portions. Decent food but hungry afterwards. Coffee is a disappointment. The only thing you're paying for here is the interior design
Kate 673October 27, 2016Used to be great, but the portion size got smaller and smaller whilst prices got higher and higher. Not worth it. I still like their coffee though
maggie liuJanuary 23, 2016service is atrocious, waiters spend more time punching things on iPads than helping out. had to wait 20 min to get my credit card back
The coffee as well as the breakfast dishes are good but overpriced. The service is quite slow.
