Joe & Dough

I saw the place when walking by and for a moment I was hoping for some good coffee as I saw some pretty nice coffee gear. When I walked closer I could see they had some good home brewing equipment and I was then hopeful they could also serve a decent cup of coffee. I was however left a bit more hesitant after the barista approached me when I was looking at the coffee beans on their shelf as his response when I asked him if it was a single origin or a blend was that it was dark roast. I still decided to sample a cup of their coffee and it was not horrible but also not great.
This location in Orchard Central is perhaps good in some ways but also the café sort of feels as it is in middle of where people walk so I do not really like that aspect of it. They do however offer free wifi which is a plus. Sampled a sandwich as well and it was a standard café style sandwich so no better or worse than I would have gotten at Starbucks or Costa’s so while not bad it does not really add much either.

I had a healthy granola & chia seeds yoghurt with pomegranate tea completes my afternoon tea break. The place is so cozy too for relaxation after shopping in Orchard, plus free wifi too.

I wouldn’t say that their coffee is bad but just not memorable.
It’s certainly a strategic location to rest after doing much shopping at orchard. The store manager need to up their service standards though =P

Came here following a tip-​off from a Unilocaler. I was searching for a place to sit, work, have WiFi and power.

Not a bad place to sit down and people watch the shoppers in Orchard Central. The café is in Orchard Gateway, however it is where the two malls join. You sit in Gateway and look at Central. My sandwich was pretty tough when I had one here — a big disappointment! The coffee met my expectations. Noting fancy and not too special, but a quality cup that can be relied upon.
The tables are a bit bunched together for my liking, so grab the one on the raised platform if you can where there is much more space (plug sockets is here too — so great for working with the FREE Wi-​Fi from Orchard Gateway).
Standard chain café prices for coffees and they have a loyalty scheme so you can earn points for a free cup when you collect enough stamps.

The sandwiches are actually good at this place. I wish every coffee franchise would be at this minimum standard.
