Bacha Coffee
A tribute to the medina of Marrakech, Morocco, Bacha Coffee specialises in 100% Arabica coffees harvested from the most well-reputed coffee producing countries, featuring a selection of over 200 coffees categorised by continent, coffee type, and even the time of day. Customers are bound to find a roast that suits their preferences, from the acidic notes of dried plum and lemon of the Ugandan Wagagai Crest, to the warm, spicy cinnamon notes of the Son La province-sourced Star of Hanoi coffee, or the chocolatey citrus notes of the Seville Orange Coffee.

Get your ready-to-drink black, white, and oat cold brews from their online store, or pair your coffee with their dinner selection of pasta and pizzas. Aside from the usual offerings, The Assembly Ground now features the limited edition Coba Cabana black coffee cold brew launched as part of their 7th anniversary. This drink is only available in July 2021, so make sure you try out the minty, floral drink while stocks last!

Old Hen Coffee
This independent family-run joint first opened in 2014, in the charming neighbourhood of Farrer Park.

Old Hen also features other offerings such as their Valrhona cocoa-infused mochas, matcha milk, chai soy latte, and Kombucha. They even sell a 1 litre bottle of their white cold brew as part of their circuit breaker menu, for when you need to stock up on a lot of caffeine. To showcase these coffees of exceptional quality, Old Hen proudly collaborates with local roaster Nylon Coffee Roasters as well as highly regarded Koppi Roasters from Sweden and La Cabra Coffee from Denmark.
