Overview

Walking into The 1950’s Coffee 五十年代 is like stepping back in time, with all the old-school charm in the heart of Singapore. This little hawker stall is snugly located on the second floor of the bustling Chinatown Complex at 335 Smith St. It’s pretty easy to find, and trust me, the aroma of freshly brewed coffee wafts through the air like a siren’s call!

With over 278 reviews and a solid score of 4.2 out of 5, you’d think they’re doing something right, wouldn’t you? Folks rave about the thick, aromatic coffee—perfect for kickstarting your morning. I mean, who doesn’t crave a strong kopi-o (that’s black coffee for us newbies) that’s both nostalgic and invigorating? You might think $2.30 for a cup is a steal, and honestly, it feels like going back to grandma’s kitchen.

Now, let’s talk food. The kaya toast? Pure magic. People swear by how crispy and savory it is, especially when paired with a cup of their amazing iced coffee. If you fancy some soft-boiled eggs, sprinkle a dash of pepper and dark soy sauce. It’s a combo that’ll have you reminiscing about simpler times.

Sure, there are mixed feelings about the service—it might be hit or miss with the famous bespectacled uncle. Some days he’s all smiles, other days? Well, let’s say he’s not winning any “Customer Service of the Year” awards. But, hey, that’s part of the experience, isn’t it?

If you’re an early bird, you’ll find a line forming as the sun rises, a testament to the loyal locals who know their coffee. Just a quick heads-up, though. It closes on Mondays, so plan your morning visits wisely!

In a nutshell, whether you’re a local or a traveler, The 1950’s Coffee is a delightful pit stop that might tug at your heartstrings—or at least your tastebuds. So, grab a seat, soak in the atmosphere, and have some coffee that’ll make you feel right at home.
