Our take: he by He Brews stands out for its consistently praised coffee, with reviewers highlighting its balanced, smooth, and rich flavour profile.
Many describe it as one of the best local coffees they've had, and it's noted for being wallet-friendly.
Beyond coffee, the cafe offers a wide range of food options, from sweet pastries like banana bread and swiss rolls to savoury items such as ciabattas, croissants, and bagels, alongside a customisable salad bar.
While the coffee receives universal acclaim, some savoury food items like the bagel with cream cheese have been described as 'terrible' and 'dry and rubbery'.
We also note a concern regarding the excessive use of disposables for dine-in orders.
Despite these points, the friendly staff and quiet, spacious environment make it a highly recommended spot for a relaxed coffee experience within NUS.
We'd recommend it for a reliable coffee fix and a peaceful break, but perhaps stick to the pastries over the bagels.

The boss and staff are all very friendly! Super good coffee and food, all for an affordable price. Favourite cafe in NUS :D
Coffee was great, egg mayo croissant was OK while bagel with cream cheese was terrible (dry and rubbery). Disappointed by the (excessive) use of disposables even for dine-in - double bagging of bakes…
