Inside the café
Since 2018
A café that feels like your living room
Common Ground Coffee is a small café in Tiong Bahru run by two friends who cared too much about coffee to keep it a hobby. We roast with a local roaster, bake our own pastries, and keep the Wi-Fi fast.
Come for a flat white before work, brunch with friends on the weekend, or a quiet corner to get through your emails. Dogs are welcome outside.

“The kaya French toast is worth the trip to Tiong Bahru alone. Coffee is consistently good and staff remember your order.”
RKRachel KohGoogle review · Aug 2026 “My weekday WFH spot. Fast Wi-Fi, power points, and nobody chases you out. The iced shaken latte is dangerous.”
JLJason LimGoogle review · Jul 2026 “Brought my corgi and they gave him water before I even sat down. Chilli crab benedict is inspired.”
