Round Boy Roasters
Small Singapore coffee bar and roastery offering specialty beans, subscriptions and approachable brew guidance.
Round Boy Roasters describes itself as a Singapore coffee bar and roastery that grew from a local cottage shop in 2018 into a retail coffee bean roastery and cafe. Its website focuses on specialty-grade coffee beans, subscriptions, single origins, blends, coffee cart bookings, self-pickups, articles and brew guides. The brand is based around Tiong Bahru and Jalan Bukit Merah, with direct contact by email or WhatsApp. It is a smaller operation than the major roasters above, but it has a clear mission: helping customers get better roasted coffee at home and at work.
Round Boy Roasters has a more casual, community-driven feel than the larger names on this list. The appeal is straightforward: freshly roasted beans, subscriptions, brew guides and a team that sounds willing to help rather than intimidate. It is especially suitable for drinkers who want a friendly route into specialty coffee without boutique pricing pressure. The trade-off is reach and polish. Details are less extensive than some bigger roasters, and the physical footprint is narrower, so it suits intentional buyers more than walk-in convenience seekers.
It rounds out the list as a real local roastery with retail beans, subscriptions, direct customer support and a friendly approach to specialty coffee education.
