Even though the workforce has been greenlighted to head back to the office, the Circuit Breaker has birthed an era of remote working. With that, cafes have become a workspace for those without a conducive environment at home, or simply looking for a change of scenery. If you’re looking for a quiet place to work or study, read our list of 12 quiet cafes in Singapore for all your studying and remote working needs. What’s more, these quiet cafes provide delectable food selections to accompany you while you work! Do be considerate about hogging tables during meal times though. Show
Update: Plain Vanilla Tiong Bahru is being refurbished till 4 November 2021. 1. For The PeopleWe loved For The People most for its thoughtfully designed space, peppered with power plugs so you won’t have to worry about your devices running out of battery. The quiet cafe also feels spacious, with a seating capacity of 60 persons, and ample space between tables. Their menu has mains, sides, cakes, and pastries—perfect for when you get hungry while working. The Mozzarella Sticks With Sriracha Salsa ($9+) make for great munchies, filled with stretchy cheese. There’s also the Cinnamon Roll ($5+), laced with swirls of cinnamon. Check out our For The People review! Address: 11 Hamilton Road, #01-00, Singapore 209182
2. Rabbit & FoxOf all the quiet cafes in town, one that’s made ideal for studying or working is Rabbit & Fox, a two-level space that’s flecked with numerous charging points. They also have sharing tables and single-person booths—apt for group study sessions, or those looking to work quietly alone. While you’re here, get a customisable BBT from their Teapresso (from $3.60) series to sip on as you work. They also have an all-day brunch selection to fill you up, including the Pork Bratwurst Rosti ($15.90) that’s served alongside grilled mushrooms, salad, and a tangy Caesar sauce.

3. The Co-OpTucked away in Our Tampines Hub is The Co-op, a colonial-style cafe dressed in wood fixtures and vintage flooring. It’s a quiet space with plenty of seats to go around, and there’s free wifi so you can stay connected throughout the day. Food-wise, we recommend the Spicy Umami Prawn Pasta ($20.90+), elevated with scallop paste and briny salmon roe. The umami flavours in this dish are the perfect perk-me-up amidst a dreary work sesh. For sweet-toothed readers, there’s a Hazelnut Dolcello Toast ($15.90+) available, packed with chocolate hazelnut spread and bananas, alongside fresh berries and honeyed mascarpone cream.

Here, you can even book meeting rooms for up to eight people, with high-speed internet and a sound system to boot.

Their new space is quiet and cosy, great for hiding from the bustle outside. Here, there are also power outlets available. Image credit: @fatty.png If there’s one dish that Strangers’ Reunion is known for, it’s their Buttermilk Waffles (from $11.50++), which you can choose to top with Greek yoghurt or vanilla bean ice cream. While you’re here, be sure to try their coffee as well, which is stellar in my books. Address: 37 Kampong Bahru Road, Singapore 169356 6. Plain Vanilla BakeryThe Plain Vanilla Bakery outlet at Tiong Bahru is one of the cafes in Singapore where you’ll constantly find people working or studying, with their laptops perched on the high tables. There’s free wifi here too, though it means that there’s a perpetual crowd. Apart from their signature cupcakes, you can expect a diverse selection of bakes, including a Strawberry Custard Tart ($7) and decadent Dark Chocolate Cherry Rum Brownie ($8).

Image credit: @toastieseats Twenty Eight Cafe fares pretty well on the food front too.

10. Mellower CoffeeImage credit: @paulaverilla Conveniently located near Bugis is Mellower Coffee, one of the more popular quiet cafes for studying or working in Singapore. There are charging stations available here, though limited, and the space gets crowded easily as well. If you do snag a seat, this makes for a great working spot, coupled with their selection of coffee-based beverages and light bites. For something more localised, try out their Ondeh X Latte ($9.80), infused with pandan syrup and coconut cream. If not, their signature Sweet Little Rain ($9.80) is a must-order, topped with an IG-worthy candy floss cloud that drips sugar into your coffee. Pair these with their display of assorted cakes and pastries. Address: 108 Middle Road, #01-01, Bernhard Schulte House, Singapore 188967 11. Amber EmberImage credit: @sher_ryn Hidden away in Upper Serangoon is Amber Ember, a hole-in-the-wall cafe that’s equipped with power outlets and free wifi. Its secluded location also means that seats are available most of the time. Image credit: @onedonnottendon Here, they specialise in jaffles, a pressed brioche toastie that hails from Australia. Meat-loving readers can opt for the Cheeky Beef ($16++), served with 18-hour braised beef cheeks, poached eggs, and a trio of mozzarella, gruyere, and emmental cheeses. There’s also the Nice To Meat You ($15++) jaffle, which features pepperoni, pastrami, and chorizo. Address: 730 Upper Serangoon Road, #01-01, Singapore 534613 12.
