Kars A.Kars Alfrink: Aeropress, espresso and cold brew are all excellent. Large, impressive space but a bit messy/grimy. In a public transport desert so mostly patronised by the exceedingly well-off. Service hit and miss.

Kars A.Kars Alfrink: Attractive interior although you might find it is trying too hard to look steampunk industrial even though you're in a mall. The coffee is prepared correctly but the taste is underwhelming.

13. A.R.C.

29/31 Sultan Gate, Singapore
Café · Central Region · 24 tips and reviews

Kars A.Kars Alfrink: Brews are okay but come from Alpha Dominche machines—which in my opinion takes the fun out of the specialty coffee thing. Serving as pictured with a ridiculously small mug which hampers tasting. Meh.
