Huggs Coffee @ Thomson Plaza: Cosy Cafe For The Working Crowd
My boyfriend got himself the Shepherd's Pie (S$6) and Turkey Ham Quiche (S$6). The Shepherd's Pie was filled with ground beef, cheese, carrots, peas, and onions. I did find the flavours to be a little muted, but I loved how the filling was soft and mushy - the perfect comfort food!
The Turkey Ham Quiche was stuffed with baked turkey ham and fresh spinach.
This was a good one. It was a savoury dish with hints of sweetness to it due to the ham, and the spinach was not watery at all.

For drinks, I got myself a Cafe Latte (S$6.30) and my boyfriend got two of the Melbourne Latte (S$5). I really liked my Cafe Latte as it was strong and milky. The acidic taste was a bit stronger than I would have liked, but it was generally easy to drink. The Melbourne Latte was pretty good as well, a lot sweeter and less acidic. It was not very foamy and not as milky as my Cafe Latte, and was extremely smooth.
Anyone who comes to Huggs Coffee may not even consider going to Starbucks anymore! First, the prices of food at Huggs Coffee are much lower than at Starbucks, and second, the quality and taste is relatively better. Oh and did I mention we were also given a complimentary pack of dried fruits and nuts?
I also like the study environment at Huggs Coffee, and there's even a designated study space called the Members Lounge. To be able to use the room, you will have to sign up as a Huggs Coffee member (which is free!) and spend at least S$5 during your visit. There are quite a few perks for being a member as well, such as vouchers, exclusive discounts, and free drinks!
If you don't want to sign up as a member, you can still study at Huggs Coffee's general space. However, the seats here don't all have charging ports nearby, and the staff may tell you not to study here during peak hours.
It's nice to know that there's a cosy cafe nearby that I can study at when the drills and knocking start at 9am! If you live near Upper Thomson and are looking for a study place close to home, Huggs Coffee would be a good option.
Thanks for reading and see you next post.
