The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf has been a cornerstone of Singapore's premium coffee culture since 1996, establishing itself as a sophisticated yet accessible destination for coffee and tea enthusiasts. With over 70 locations across the country and complete MUIS halal certification at all outlets, this Los Angeles-born chain has successfully adapted to Singapore's diverse dining landscape while maintaining its commitment to quality and inclusivity. The brand's dedication to serving both Singapore and Malaysia with halal-certified beverages and food demonstrates their understanding of the region's cultural and religious diversity, making premium coffee experiences accessible to all communities.
The extensive beverage menu showcases the brand's expertise in both coffee and tea craftsmanship, featuring their signature Ice Blended® drinks like the Ultimate Mocha and Salted Caramel varieties starting from $9.80, alongside carefully curated latte options including Vanilla Latte and Matcha Green Tea Latte from $8.90. Their tea selection spans seven distinct categories—Green, Black, Oolong, Herbal Infusion, Decaffeinated, Flavored, and Tea Master's—ensuring there's a perfect brew for every preference. Beyond beverages, their halal-certified food menu includes breakfast items, salads, sandwiches, cakes, and pastries, creating a comprehensive café experience that serves customers throughout the day.
The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf's success in Singapore stems from their ability to provide a premium coffee house experience in a Muslim-friendly environment, filling a crucial niche in the local F&B market. Their strategic positioning in prime locations across shopping centers, business districts, and residential areas makes quality coffee and tea accessible to professionals, students, and families alike. The brand's consistency in maintaining halal standards while delivering international coffee shop quality has earned them a loyal customer base, positioning them as a trusted choice for both casual coffee meetings and special celebrations in Singapore's competitive café landscape.

Ordered an Iced Soy Chai Latte, and the first one that came out tasted like water. It was utterly disgusting. I noticed they filled the cup with ice, like a mountain. I sent it back and requested a new one. The replacement came out even worse than the first. It tasted like soy milk with no hint of chai at all. I told them they could have the drink for themselves. The lady at the counter was nice about it and offered for me to pick a new drink, but I rejected.

The coffee was okay. However, the Chinese staff member wearing a black shirt and spectacles was very rude. They rudely informed me about the one-hour dining limit only after I had made payment, while I observed others sitting there without even ordering. The place also has poor ventilation, with a strong, greasy food smell. If your staff dislikes taking orders, perhaps consider investing in a self-order kiosk?

Only one poor girl on duty who had to take orders and make them too! Waited over 30 minutes for my coffee. Can't blame her, she was lovely, but I guess her boss really sucks for not putting another person on duty.

Service quality is inconsistent, often having to wait a long time for food. People who ordered before me and my friend received their food first. However, sometimes the servers are really nice and serve food quickly, though other times they don't even use the buzzer to signal if our food is ready.
Good for a regular breakfast near home, but if a better option opened up close by, I wouldn't hesitate to go there instead.

One of the best places to chill when you're tired from walking around. The drinks and cakes are pretty standard. The reason for deducting one star was because they had a sign saying "please wait to be seated," but we waited for quite a few minutes and were ignored, with nobody there to usher us in. Anyway, after a few minutes, I just went in myself, lol.
Perhaps the sign can be removed if it's no longer required.

We had drinks here. Even when there weren't many people, the service was a bit lagging, but they really fill your glass up to the brim. Nice refreshing watermelon lychee and peach with jelly drink. Good cup of cappuccino too. Quite a number of seats, topped up with a nice ambience.

On Sunday afternoon, I enjoyed the customer service provided by Sarah Poh, Asyraf & William. They were friendly, helpful, and assisted with my inquiries. I had an enjoyable tea time in this outlet.
I love the cosy corner and the awesome, helpful staff. I also love these cute desserts in a mug. I prefer the chocolate over the mango mousse as it reminds me of Ferrero Rocher.
This is one of the best Christmas promos where I get to keep the cup! Super love it!

Great coffee! However, I think the All-Day Breakfast could be better, as the waffle was served cool. The pizza tasted better and was larger than I expected, not bad!

The cheesecake slaps as usual (it's the best cheesecake ever, by the way), but the chocolate mint cake is too dry! The watermelon lychee tastes like Boost's Watermelon Crush.
