Our take: The Coffee Roaster Cafe offers a solid option for coffee and light bites within the NUS Queenstown area.
We think its main draw is the affordability of its coffee, with an espresso priced around $3 and an iced white at $4.70, which is competitive for the area.
Reviewers consistently praise the coffee quality, describing the espresso as balanced with caramel-nut notes and low acidity.
The cafe provides ample seating across three distinct areas, including an indoor space with numerous power sockets, making it suitable for work or study.
However, we note a recurring concern regarding the use of disposable cups for dine-in cold beverages, which some customers find disappointing from an environmental perspective.
While hot drinks can be served in ceramics upon request, iced drinks default to disposables.
We'd recommend this cafe for its budget-friendly and well-regarded coffee, especially if you're looking for a place to work.
Be prepared for disposable cups if ordering cold drinks, or consider bringing your own tumbler.
A reliable everyday option, not a destination meal.

What customers say
The Coffee Roaster Cafe is generally well-regarded for its affordable and balanced coffee, particularly the espresso and iced whites, making it a popular spot for work and discussions on the NUS campus.
While many appreciate the bright, clean environment and polite staff, a recurring concern is the cafe's default use of disposable cups for dine-in, especially for iced drinks, which customers find environmentally unfriendly and disappointing.
The matcha latte received specific criticism for being grainy and milky, though other drinks like chai and honey lattes are recommended.

Got an iced matcha latte for dine-in. They served it in a disposable cup (they mentioned non-disposable cups are only for hot drinks). Was quite disappointed because how not eco-friendly… I would’ve b…
