Despite the busy Saturday morning crowd, the café had a welcoming and energetic atmosphere. It was filled mostly with young people catching up over brunch, yet the background music was lively without being overpowering, making it easy to enjoy a proper conversation. What impressed me most was the hospitality. We had only intended to grab our drinks to go, but the friendly and polite waitress invited us to take a seat and even offered complimentary water while we waited. It’s a small gesture, but one that made us feel genuinely welcome. The drinks were excellent. The Kaya Toast Latte was a standout, capturing the familiar flavours of kaya toast with fragrant pandan and creamy coconut milk, while still delivering a satisfying coffee kick. The Citrus Cloud Cold Brew was equally memorable—bright with yuzu, calamansi and lemon, refreshingly citrusy without overwhelming the coffee, and perfectly balanced from the first sip to the last. Whether you’re serious about your coffee or simply looking for a comfortable place to catch up with friends, Common Man Coffee Roasters continues to deliver. Great coffee, warm service and a vibrant atmosphere make it a café that is well worth returning to.

Amazing food and service! Kristoff the manager really made sure we were comfy and happy with our time at the Common Man in Martin Road. We bought a lot of beans after learning that their coffee roaster is different from what is in Manila. I love this branch in Singapore! Best one there is :)

I loved this brunch a lot!!! I came by myself on a busy Saturday morning but didn’t have to wait too long. The pancakes were amazing and so was the cappuccino! I will definitely be back next time I’m in Singapore—don’t miss this for coffee or brunch!

Wildly popular expat and digital nomad destination around river valley. Also popular for Singaporean ATAS families. Coffee and juice were alright. Place seems very commercial and put together. One step up from the versions they supply to corporate clients. Personally felt that the filter coffee wasn't as good as I'd hoped. For starters, they supplied it in that instagrammable flask and cup pictured below. As far as I can tell, there's no way to pour the coffee out without spilling a good proportion of it, around 10-15% out onto the table. Granted I'm not an expert in tableware. Perhaps it were merely an off batch of beans. Chance befalls us all, sure. The juice came in a woefully tiny container. Sure, I get it, prices are high, Iran etc. but come on, it was barely larger than a yakult bottle. Not even vitagen!! Going the commercial route is fine. And maybe quality suffered because it was crowded. Chye sent huat is a good example of keeping it up. Anyway, perhaps I'm too harsh. The decor was nice, and the no touching sculpture at the door amused me.

We were recommended to visit this cafe and we were so impressed. Best coffee and the food was perfect. The service staff were so attentive and helpful. One of us had mushrooms and avocado on toast which was so good and I had the French toast and it was so amazingly good. We were provided a bag to take our leftovers.
