3 months later- Stay cool-go to Starbucks. Nothing Changed in coffee bean. Aircon still turned off in most of the cafe (same as many CBTL). It's clear this is company policy. I don't want to be sweating while working. By the way, never did get ANY contact from a manager. CustomerService /management is nonexistent.
The staff and coffee are excellent in all the CBTL and I've been to many. They will cater to personal preferences and are always friendly. The most ridiculous policy is that in a very hot country they clearly instruct cafes not to use Aircon or little as possible so many cafes constantly feel hot and one can't work in them whereas Starbucks are always 100% cool (hence being so busy). There is only ONE contact point - messenger - which promises help and gives ZERO help. Over one month trying to communicate about this problem with just silly repeated messages eg "yes we've told our team and they'll be in touch" . EXACTLY the same service about the broken toilet nearly 2 months in SJDM. Customers must either leave and lose their seats to go to SECOND floor or risk their bags being stolen. Ridiculous service.

   Read morei love coffee bean, place is very relaxing. Unlike other coffee shop, it is not crowded. We've sip few drinks in one of their branches in Uptown Mall, 3rd floor. The place ia clean and instagram worthy. People usually took time to stay to study, held their meetings or just a simple gathering.They have indoors and outdoors tables and chairs. Perfect for those who wants to watch the fountain at night.
Menu is the same, delicious but quite pricy compare to other coffee shops. You may only have access to their wifi services if you have their card. Planner giveaway is ongoing till the 20th of...
