XLIII Coffee is truly a coffee experience, not just a coffee shop! The specialty coffee is exquisite and prepared with such a unique level of care and craftsmanship—you can tell there’s an art behind every cup. And do yourself a favor and get the brownie! Rich, decadent, and absolutely delicious—the perfect pairing with their coffee. The staff were incredibly professional while still being warm, personable, and welcoming.

For all Arabica lovers, this cafe is such a great experience! It’s a little bit hidden off the main street, but it’s a true hidden gem. The atmosphere is clean and spacious with lots of greenery. Our server, Yen, is the sweetest and so knowledgeable! She explained each bean, let us smell each roast, and showed us the brewing process. The pastries were delicious as well. Thank you so much for this experience, and we can’t wait to come back!

Brilliant experience from start to finish. The gentleman who served me took the time to walk me through the coffees currently available and discuss the flavour profiles I might enjoy. The space itself is beautifully curated, creating a calm and relaxing atmosphere. I would highly recommend it to any coffee enthusiast, or anyone looking for a quiet place to unwind after a busy week. A genuinely enjoyable experience that I’ll happily return for.

The café is tucked away in a quiet little alley, and you need to change into indoor slippers before going in. The whole place is super clean. After chatting with the staff, I found out this is actually a newly opened branch. I’ve been to their Q1 location a long time ago, and it’s definitely a place where people who really know coffee can enjoy some seriously good brews. What’s different here is that they also serve food. I ordered a cinnamon roll topped with a light lemon glaze—something I’ve never tried before. It tasted refreshing and toned down the strong cinnamon flavor a bit. That afternoon, we were the only customers, so it felt really peaceful. The staff were super friendly and even chatted with us. If you’re looking for a quiet place to relax, this is a great option—but keep in mind they only serve coffee, no other drinks.

Such a cool experience! We found this place because it was just one block away from our airbnb, but we had no idea we were about to experience something so unique! Starting off by the change of shoes for slippers, which made everything feel so wholesome and relaxing from the start. We were also greeted by the friendliest dog that made us feel so welcomed and filled with love. Service was excellent and we were offered different experiences of coffee from all over the world, made in a special coffee machine I hadn’t seen before. The sourdough cinnamon roll was also delicious. Overall it was a lovely, very refreshing experience.
