About Eight Floor Coffee
Eight Floor Coffee is a home-based coffee business brewing from the eighth floor of Block 147 along Bishan Street 11 in Bishan, Singapore. True to its tagline — brewing a passion on the eighth floor, one home-brewed cup at a time — it is a small, personal operation rather than a storefront cafe, with drinks ordered through its online shop and a brewing schedule announced on Instagram (@eightfloorcoffee).
The menu covers espresso-based classics — black and white coffees, hot or iced — alongside a matcha and hojicha latte line-up, hot and iced chocolate, and playful house signatures such as the Sig-8-ture Mocha, Yakult Matcha, Grapefruit Divine, Summer Delight and Apple Espresso Twist.
A Bring Your Own Cup menu rewards customers who turn up with their own tumbler, offering the same drinks at a gentler price — a fitting touch for a neighbourhood home business that keeps things simple and personal.
Eight Floor Coffee: Home-Brewed Coffee from Block 147, Bishan
Not all of Bishan's coffee comes from a mall cafe. Some of it is brewed a little higher up — on the eighth floor of Block 147 along Bishan Street 11, where Eight Floor Coffee runs its home-based operation. The name is literal, and so is the philosophy behind its tagline: brewing a passion on the eighth floor, one home-brewed cup at a time.
A passion project with an online storefront
Eight Floor Coffee is a homegrown business rather than a traditional cafe. Orders are placed through its online shop (built on Cococart), and because a home operation brews in batches rather than keeping fixed daily hours, the team announces its brewing schedule on Instagram at @eightfloorcoffee. The site itself notes that the shop is "closed for now but we'll be back soon" — a reminder that brew runs come in waves, and followers get the first word on when the next one starts.
That model suits the neighbourhood well. Bishan residents get cafe-style drinks without leaving the estate, and the small scale means every cup is made with personal attention rather than on an assembly line.
What's in the cup
The menu is compact but covers a lot of ground. At its core are the espresso-based classics: Black (hot or cold) for those who like their coffee undressed, and White (hot or cold) for a milkier, rounder cup.
The house favourite is the Sig-8-ture Mocha — a name that winks at the eighth-floor origin story — where espresso meets chocolate in the business's signature serve. Around it sits a solid tea-and-cocoa line-up: hot and iced matcha lattes, hot and iced hojicha lattes made with roasted green tea, and classic hot and iced chocolate.
For something more playful, the specialty drinks step in: Yakult Matcha blends green tea with the probiotic drink for a tangy, creamy sip; Grapefruit Divine brings a citrus edge; Summer Delight is the refreshing house number; and the Apple Espresso Twist gives coffee a fruity turn.
Bring your own cup, pay a little less
The standout quirk of the menu is the Bring Your Own Cup option. Every drink on the main menu also appears on a separate BYOC list, priced lower for customers who arrive with their own tumbler or flask. It is the same coffee and the same recipes — just in your cup instead of a disposable one.
For commuters who already carry a bottle, it is an easy habit; for everyone else, it is a gentle nudge toward less single-use waste, with a small saving as the reward. It is also very much in the spirit of a home business that keeps things low-key and personal.
Planning a visit
A few things to know before you go. Eight Floor Coffee is home-based, so this is a pick-up operation rather than a place to sit and linger — order online, then collect from Block 147 on Bishan Street 11. There are no printed opening hours to plan around; instead, check the Instagram feed for the current brewing schedule before heading out.
If the storefront shows as closed, it simply means the current brew run has ended — follow @eightfloorcoffee and you will know the moment the next one begins. In the meantime, the menu gives you plenty to think about: a mocha with its own origin story, a matcha with a Yakult twist, or a straightforward black coffee in a cup you brought yourself.
