Really good place to study! Their coffee is good. $3.50 for a black, which isn’t bad. They have a 10% discount for NTU students. Both indoor and outdoor is really nice. It gets busy around 11am. Some outlets, but not many.

Located a tad bit out of the way from the well-trafficked areas of NTU's North Spine and I've only known this place rather recently. Surprisingly popular among some students and staffs - there is always crowds around lunch time, perhaps the 10% discount of all items on sale for them is one of the main draws. Discount aside, the offerings are actually pretty good given the price, albeit the Japanese and Japanese-inspired noodle dishes' portion is somewhat smaller than average for most people. The coffee is one of the very bests in NTU and very competitively priced ($3 for long black/espresso after discount). Don't expect the variety like real speciality coffee place like let's say Venture Drive, but they are know what they are doing - the coffee I've had was chocolaty, a bit velvety, and came with right 'body' and thickness. Due to its popularity, the indoor space is very crowded in lunch time, but the outdoor dining space (next to a rooftop garden) is almost always empty. Some shading (even patio table with umbrella) would do, especially in hot weather.

It took me quite some time to find this restaurant. Even the two students I asked for directions didn't know its location. The restaurant is neat, clean, and has a nice ambiance. The food was good, but since I wasn't very hungry, I didn't try the full meal. However, fellow diners commented that it was good.

Cafe is located in the 71 Nanyang Drive, is next to Arc of NTU. you get 10% off if you show your staff or student card. Ambience is classy, staff are very sweet and friendly. I like the Taro Latte. Price is 👍🏻 . Most of the time is very quiet you can take a rest, when is hot out there 😁 😉 the air conditioning is very cold here.

The place decide to close early at 3:30pm and insist we leave even though the sign mentioned 4pm (I check as I was exiting). And no one informed me this when I placed my order at 2pm+. There’s an older Chinese lady who wore a cap that is quite rude that “kept repeating do you understand me” until I acknowledge by saying “okay” to the early closure. When I asked a male counter guy for her name, instead of finding out the reason I wasn’t happy, he insisted on knowing why I needed her name and why I wanted to leave a Google review. As I walk towards the exit, the male staff loudly announced to his colleagues that I wanted the name for a Google review. If you want to bad mouth a customer, shouldn’t you do it privately? And aren’t all service staff required to wear a name badge? Bad service recovery and bad dining experience. Hope they have training for their staff on basic service level.
