Sometimes, it's better to keep things simple. Lucid's interiors of grey and white – with its milky countertops, concrete floor and metallic accents – make for an Instagrammable spot. But it's more than just a treat for the eyes. The minimalist hide-out also serves cups of quality brews by co-owner Andrea Tan, the first National Brewers’ Cup champion in Singapore.
Pull up and settle down in an industrial-looking, matte-grey chair. Lucid's menu reflects its minimalist philosophy as well – you’ll only find that coffee and a small selection of bakes are available. Espresso-based drinks starts from $4, and there are choices of tea (from $5.80) – genmaicha, hojicha, and others – from local teahouse Hvala as well. Grab a cuppa for your caffeine fix, and dig into toasts topped with prosciutto ($16), avocado ($14), and more.
