Common Man Coffee Roasters

Really nice spot to hang out and relax. The ambience is cozy and welcoming, and the staff are super friendly and helpful. Tried the banana cake — soft, moist, and really tasty! The coffee is excellent too. Definitely a spot I’d recommend for a chill coffee break.…Read More

Really nice spot for breakfast in a cute corner building at Joo Chiat. The vibe’s super chill with good music and a clean, modern space (even the bathrooms are spotless). Flat white was on point, and I like that they give filtered water at every table. Had the full breakfast and it was super filling. Service was quick and friendly too. Great place to relax over coffee and food, definitely recommend!…Read More

We decided to visit @commonmancoffee and tried to skip the lunch crowd by arriving at around 1:40pm, but still had to wait for 2 tables. The sizable place was full of people both indoors and indoors with a never-ending queue (they don’t take reservations). Prices were not cheap, but (almost) everything was damn delicious and the huge portions left us walking away super full. Found on the lunch menu served from 10am to 5pm, this was SO GOOD! We loved how the unique beetroot BBQ sauce added a sweet tanginess to the juicy beef patty while the herbed fries were so flavorful that we didn’t really need any ketchup. The all-day breakfast menu had so many options we wanted to try, but we finally decided on the creamy buttermilk pancakes that came with a seasoned butter, which was absolutely sensational! Dipping the crispy bacon into syrup was SUCH a guilty pleasure and we probably ate more than we should have.This looked super aesthetic but was a little disappointing in terms of taste, as the icing made the cake a little too sugary and artificial. SKIP! The banana flavour was actually quite prominent over the peanut butter while the consistency was thinner than what I expected. Still enjoyed this though!There was a huge range of regional coffees that you could pick after scanning the QR code on the menu. As a non-coffee lover, this flavour that my friend chose was probably the best I’ve ever tasted, as the hints of bergamot and apricot made the slow-brew not bitter at all! Plus the coffee tasting card was also super cute~…Read More
