Last updated 30 May 2026
The Coffee Bean and Tea Leaf at Marine Parade offers a generally pleasant ambiance, especially for an early morning breakfast when it's less crowded.
We note that while some customers have positive experiences with accommodating staff, such as the flexibility to customize orders (e.g., adding sausage and omitting salad/waffles), there are significant inconsistencies in service quality.
Several reports highlight issues ranging from finding eggshells in food with an inadequate apology, to poor coffee preparation where a large latte tasted mostly of milk and the barista was unhelpful.
There are also instances of staff being unaccommodating regarding product availability, as seen with the muffin purchase incident.
While the tuna puff is mentioned as a good and filling option, the waffle has been described as hard and unappetizing.
We think this outlet is best for those seeking a quiet spot outside of peak hours, but be prepared for potentially inconsistent service and beverage quality.
It's a reliable spot for a quick bite if you're in the area, but not a destination for exceptional food or service.

Operational practices, like limiting muffin purchases for display, also drew criticism.
