Da MianJanuary 6, 2011Restauranteur uncle from Melbourne said that the double latte rivals some of the best cafe rated by the Melbourne Age recently. And he liked the drip Colombian, very smooth and balanced.
Ron HoOctober 15, 2011The same people at Loysel's Toy, head over to Papa Palheta for some serious coffee tasting. You may even pick the beans you want, get them to ground it for you, so that you can pack it back home !
Coffee: 1 of d best ard! Park @ Hooper, enter fr d bak. Cost 4 a cuppa? They work base on tips only, so u better know ur coffee prices. Haha!
Julian ChowJuly 15, 2012lovely quaint place to chill but the entrance isn't by the main road so please take note!
Dan ClementsOctober 24, 2010Ditch the 'bux, TCC, and all other wannabe coffee houses, this place is the real deal. Premium, fair trade, ecofriendly coffee at it's best.
Finally decent coffee in Singapore. Beats Starsucks anytime. The only downside in my opinion are the smokers outside. They should consider banning it.
Forget big names with bad coffee... Papa's has the best coffee in Singapore TO DATE. oh, and purchase yourself a keep cup too! :D
GREAT COFFEE. Wish there was better ventilation. Love the coffee none the less! Down to earth place & staff.
Kok wee AwFebruary 12, 2011A whole world away from the bustling city. Setting is informal n paying for wat u wan is a uniquely personal touch!
Roasting Day on Mondays hence not they are will not be serving their wonderful selection of specialty coffee - mistake that I make ALL the time!
Michael FoongMarch 28, 2010The work on a tip basis and they do not charge for coffee :) a really nice and cosy place. Makes you want to move in.- Da MianJanuary 5, 2011Jaclyn made me one of the best drips I have ever tasted :) she works only on wed though :(
Do try their ice mocha double shots with extra chocolate, it's heavenly nice for a hot Sunday.
Dennis is such a nice chap! Knows his coffee and made me a mean espresso! Kudos!- Michael FoongMarch 28, 2010If you have kids ask for a baby chino. Steam milk with cocoa powder sprinkled on top and topped off with marshmallows :)
If you like something milk based, try the cappuccino! For the drip, check out the Ethiopian Sidamo
Samuel ChanFebruary 19, 2012Papa Palheta does a great flat white, and the place is really cozy and pleasant.
Abhijit DuttaOctober 14, 2010try the peruvian drip and talk to Dennin, the owner, for the background story of how they came to start it.
Victoria CFebruary 11, 2010Fantastic specialty coffee. Owner does all the roasting in house. Cute hidden find and top of the line coffee.
The latte here reminds me of the ones I had back in Melbourne. It's da bomb!!
Come in for the most important drink of the day... We promise we'll get your coffee right!
Hee Wei LeeApril 10, 2011Must buy back their terra firma houseblend. Talk to Dennis for more info. Nice chap
T Derrick LooMay 8, 2010Found this place through a newspaper clippings sometime in 09, had a serene morning tasting the long black. full bodied, and not washed down with too much water. can't find in starbucks nor coffeebean
We got issues with the bukit timah outlet. Their landlord has stopped them serving sit down coffee. Its to-go only. :(
MazSeptember 4, 2010At thus tasting house, u can taste watever coffee u like for free. Then buy the beans u like!- Say bye bye tcc and come to a real cafe. Feels like a little of old Singapore and captures a little of the new Singapore. Staff actually want to work here.
- Love their drip coffee. Better than the cups I had in Vietnam.
- Crowded on weekends, all day long. Cafe seats abt 30 pax
Come here to get your morning fix! We promise we'll get your coffee right :)
Pace yourself with all the coffee tasting before you end like with a caffeine high like me
Lovely place to have weekend coffee. Love the iced mocha!
Veron @ Sparklette.netApril 29, 2012Free parking! Pictures and review at- Sit outside. Especially when the weather is overcast, its not too hot.

"Serious looking coffee equipment and handsome, helpful baristas in this quiet take away shop. Single origin beans, a deep roast, brewed slowly, made a wonderful coffee with a powerful kick. Yum!"
