Hey, Faithfuls! My recent coffee find is this unique hole-in-the-wall called Kopi Khoo. Kopi Khoo is a charming, family-run coffee takeaway kiosk nestled in Joo Chiat. Operating from a traditional Peranakan-style window that opens directly into their home kitchen, this unique coffee spot is started by a mother-son duo, 72-year-old Paulin Khoo and her son.

It’s easy to miss if not for the distinctive wooden shutters and a large green banner guiding you in. The setup is simple, and the warm, personal touch makes it feel like you're stepping into a hidden gem.

Despite its modest size, Kopi Khoo offers a small but solid selection of espresso-based drinks, ranging from iced Americano (S$3.50) to hot Cappuccinos (S$3.50), with Iced Caramel Lattes (S$4.50) adding a sweet twist to the menu.

I tried the Iced Latte (S$4), which had a smooth, refreshing flavour with a slightly acidic coffee blend that the milk balanced out perfectly. It’s especially refreshing in Singapore’s sweltering heat. For those with little ones, the Babycino (S$3) is a great option too, catering to students from the nearby school.

If you're visiting on the weekend, it’s best to head down around 2pm to avoid the later afternoon crowd. Kopi Khoo offers a truly affordable and friendly coffee experience with unique, homey vibes. It’s one of those places where you know you’ll return, not just for the coffee, but for the welcoming auntie and the overall charm of the place!

Thanks for reading, and see you next post!
