Apartment Coffee

Known as Asia’s best coffee shop. Have to say they have very good aesthetics, and the coffee lives up to the hype. The space itself is so nonchalant that you won’t even expect there to be a coffee shop in the building. They explain the type of coffee, how it was brewed and the tasting notes. The coffee itself, I was quite surprised. It was very good iced making it quite refreshing with the Singapore weather.

The space is bright, calming, and beautifully curated with art and natural light. Even with a crowd and a queue outside, the staff were affable, polite, and impressively efficient. I dropped by during the Sweet Blossom bar takeover, which made the visit even better since they’re one of my favourite cafes too. The coffee was awesome, the service was smooth, and the vibe was lively. I’ll definitely be back again.

It's an open-plan and bright space, thanks to its enormous window—a small oasis of peace where you can rest and relax with a good coffee. It was an oasis until a few months ago when it was proclaimed the best coffee shop in Asia and the sixth among the top 100 coffee shops in the world. Having become so famous, it now fills up quickly, and queues can even form. The menu focuses on filter coffees; they always have four or five options. Most of the bar is occupied by several stations for preparing filters and one for espresso or milk-based drinks (whites). They don't offer food, but if someone doesn't want coffee, there are excellent chocolate or tea options.

Beautiful coffee - sight, aroma and taste. Amazingly popular considering the strange location. We got here 20mins after it opened and we got the last seats and there’s a queue behind us! Nice tasteful minimalist interior. I ordered a geisha coffee and my wife ordered the latte. Both were delicious! Comes with a nice drinkable temperature, not too hot. Lovely stuff. Worth it as a treat! They don’t seem to sell food. Only coffee!

World best coffee shop ranked 6th 2025. Very cozy ambience and clean. Limited 1 hour seating. Always on Q. Selling hand brew. Tea and chocolate drinks too. Not bad the coffee. But to me I still prefer another cafe in sg - nylon coffee their extraction is just perfect !

The name of Aisa best cafe is real or may be, even more than that. By far, the best hand drip I have ever had in my life. Waited for only 10 min to taste the best in Asia. Absolutely worth it. ❄️Columbia - Francisco Loaiza - Hand Drip - 9.5/10 - clean cup, fantastic acidity and sweetness, perfectly balanced taste

The Apartment ☕✨ Ranked as the 6th best coffee shop in the world and #1 in Asia, this is a must-visit for coffee lovers! ☕🌏 But heads up—this place is incredibly popular! If you’re planning to visit later today, be prepared for a long queue outside. Trust me, though—it’s worth the wait! 😍 Pro tip: Arrive early to snag your spot and enjoy their world-class brews without the wait. 🙌

Very minimalistic setup yet cosy with high ceilings to boot. Apartment focused on handbrewed filtered coffee but they also serve a really impressive flat white with seasonal rotation of beans. The first sip gave a burst of flavour, you could actually taste the layers in the coffee, not just milk. There was a great balance between the espresso and milk, which is often hard to get right and personally I prefer less a milky taste.
The café seems to focus purely on coffee, no bake goods and just good coffee. They also offer a few different beans for hand-brewed coffee, which is a nice touch for people who like exploring.

⚠️ One thing to note though, they don’t do take-aways so it’s a bring-your-own-cup place.
