#WFH has become the new normal for most of us. As the lines between home and office blur, we sometimes forget to take a breather or simply lack the inspiration for our work. Thankfully, there’s a simple solution to this – a change of environment can allow your mind to get the refresher it needs (with or without a little bit of caffeine). This means more efficiency and productivity! #goals

We’ve interviewed avid cafe hoppers in our team to recommend you these conducive cafes that are ideal for meetings and work.

1. Starbucks at Fusionopolis

Nestled at the heart of Singapore’s biggest startup ecosystem lies a 2-storey Starbucks outlet which few venture to in the mid-afternoon. Looking for a cafe to meet with investors, potential partners or just wanting a space for some quiet thinking? This is your go-to.

Own a Standard Chartered credit card? Good news! You’re entitled to $2 off with a min. purchase or reload of $20 into your Starbucks gift card. That’s a 10% discount, definitely a steal.  

Address: No. 2 Fusionopolis Way, #01-04 Innovis, Singapore 138634

2.  The Book Cafe at Martin Road

Personally, I like the book cafe at Martin Road. Why? Simply because they accept seat hoarders. They are cool with you taking up a seat with a drink and a meal. They let you use their electricity and wifi with no judgement. I like them. That’s a deal on its own, non-judgemental, nice service staff who let you enjoy the cafe’s resources undisturbed. 10/10 recommend.  

Address: 20 Martin Rd, #01-02 Seng Kee Building, Singapore 239070

3. Oriole Coffee + Bar at Somerset

Fond of the roads less travelled? Here’s one for you. Despite being centrally located in the heart of the city, few visit Somerset’s hidden gem at Pan Pac Serviced Suites. While it’s located in Singapore’s prime real estate, it isn’t too packed with people, making it the perfect work-from-outside-of-home location.

Still not convinced? As an HSBC credit cardholder, you’ll get access to the Entertainer’s app for 1-for-1 deals. Twice the food at the same price. Don’t wait, grab a colleague and go now.  

Address: 96 Somerset Rd, #01-01, Singapore 238163

4. The Coffee Academics at Marina Bay Financial Centre

Thanks to the tasteful interior design at The Coffee Academics, this is an absolutely INSTA-WORTHY place for zoomers. This cafe is ideal for the next upcoming influencer with remote heavy work. You can do two jobs at once – create content for your followers and get your day job done.

Pro tip: Go on days where you don’t have any zoom meetings. This hangout is so nice, your colleagues might get screen envy! This is the perfect locale for post-lunch work as HSBC cardholders can get 1-for-1 deals here as well. Their payment methods include Fave Pay and Google Pay, so cashback is almost guaranteed when you dine here.  

Address: 10 Marina Boulevard T2, #01-01, Singapore 018983
