Wai Cafe is a cosy cafe located in Raffles Place, and honestly, I don't know if I can find it again on my own as I'm unfamiliar with all the different exits in Raffles Place. But it's definitely your loss if you miss out on the good coffee served there.. They get their beans from Common Man roasters, and in the past, I didn't really enjoy the brews from Common Man cafe. But upon enquiring, it seemed to be a different blend, so I gave it a shot (no pun intended). The latte was well balanced, nutty, chocolatey (slightly acidic but not too sour). I liked it and enjoyed taking small sips to stretch out the experience of a good brew. What I also enjoyed was the lively vibe at Wai Cafe. Given the small space, they've designed it to make it wholly their own unique space... The wallpapered pillars are dotted with their bespoke Wai Cafe design, making it cheerful and unexpectedly quirky. A few of the small tables have a small vase with a single yellow Geranium flower... So bright and cheerful! And then, there's a low table littered with coffee table books, and some cushions; again, breathing warmth into an otherwise cramp space. I enjoyed my short lounge at Wai Cafe, and won't mind swinging by again when I'm at Raffles Place. They serve good coffee, and I enjoy the vibe there. Oh, and they use Meji fresh milk - which is definitely a bonus in my eyes!

Didn't expect the latte art and it made my day. Came during office hours so it wasn't busy. Nice coffee smells, great staff, nice music.

Nice cosy little cafe tucked away near the MRT station @ CIMB plaza. Cafe is really small, suitable for small group and also if you have a meeting/business discussion. Love the decoration and love that they do have bakes/bites available too. Wide variety of drinks available that you’ll be spoilt for choice. Had my iced long black, was good!

Relaxed and chill ambience, passable matcha latte that is sweet enough (sgd6). Comfy seats with cushions, quirky and cute decor. Temperature just nice, leaning towards cold. Corner seats with low tables great for intimate conversation. Higher tables suitable for business meetings.

Ice matcha is very good. Not too "grassy" but still have the matcha taste. The sea salt Nutella brownie is so yummy. Service is friendly too.

This is a very cozy spot, conveniently located on the ground floor of CIMB Plaza. The coffee is good, and the team is exceptionally humble and friendly. Got ourselves an iced Americano, and had a good discussion on the high chairs. The only downside, however, is the unfortunate scarcity of seats. If you're looking for a grab-and-go option, I reckon this would make a great choice.
