I've been overseas for 2 months and yk what I really miss? A darn good kopi peng๐ฅน like this ๐๐ฅ๐ฆ๐จ๐ง๐ ๐๐จ๐ฉ๐ข ($๐). But if you prefer lattes, get them unflavoured because the ๐๐ข๐ฌ๐ญ๐๐๐ก๐ข๐จ ๐๐๐ญ๐ญ๐ ($๐.๐๐) and ๐๐๐๐๐๐๐ฆ๐ข๐ ๐๐๐ญ๐ญ๐ ($๐.๐๐) were mild tasting but smooth.
We were intrigued by their innovative toasts so we got some to try๐๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ฆ & ๐๐๐ข๐ฌ๐ข๐ง ๐๐ซ๐๐ฆ๐ ๐๐จ๐๐ฌ๐ญ ($๐.๐๐) reminded me of Japanese cream sandos! The cream was fresh๐ผ and had a strong rum taste. However, the v hyped ๐๐ฅ๐๐๐ค ๐๐๐ฌ๐๐ฆ๐ ๐๐จ๐๐ฌ๐ญ ($๐.๐๐) was too heavy on the butter and I found the ๐๐๐ซ๐ฅ ๐๐ซ๐๐ฒ ๐๐ซ๐๐ฆ๐ ๐๐จ๐๐ฌ๐ญ ($๐.๐๐) too perfumed๐ฃ
We had to order this because of the unique flavour and we werenโt disappointed. The earl grey taste in the cream was prominent though we have to say the cream itself tasted like the icing buttercreams on our old school type of cakes and may get jelat after a while. This would be good for sharing
This was a filling portion for $3.50 and we liked how they werenโt stingy with the filling, though we wished the bssm flavour would be more intense.
Tried the Black Sesame Toast for tea break and I enjoyed it! Personally prefer a thicker toast, but I love the nutty richness of the black sesame spread sandwiched between the crispy toasted bread! The sweetness of the black SSM is balanced out by the savoury slab of butter (which is more than what Old Town White Coffee in Malaysia would ever give but anyway..). ๐๐ค If black sesame isn't your thing, they have other unique flavours like Kueh Salat and Blueberry Brandy Creme! Also, wholemeal bread = healthier option!โ

Highly recommend pairing your toast with a drink for a $0.50 discount! The Iced Caramel Mocha came in handy against the rising temperatures in SG!
Toasts from @coffeebreakamoy !
I have been wanting to try their toasts for some time already!
Got the black sesame and taro creme ($3.50 each) to try!
Between the two, I actually preferred the black sesame! For the sole reason that I did not expect that the taro creme one to be more like BUTTER CREAM? And I do not really fancy the creamy butter cream! I was expecting taro orh nee texture? LOL! I was also surprised that the Taro Creme came with a slab of butter as well!
For the two toasts we got, their crispiness varied, so it seemed like the toasting of bread slices isnt very consistent. The Taro Creme one was crispier than the black sesame toast!
They have other flavours like peanut butter, hazelnut cocoa, ciannmon sugar, earl grey creme and raspberry almond creme (all at $3.50 each). Otherwise, there is also the classic flavour of kaya butter, butter sugar and butter only (at $3 each).
Tip: Come with a friend, order the two toasts separately, using shopback, and you can get 10% shopback credits confirmed straight away when you make your second order :)
My default order here. I do not like sweet coffee at all and Iove that their caramel is not syrupy sweet and I def get the sea salt.
Obviously someone who can't appreciate coffee, guess it's smooth but it's not sweet at all. Really mild, u can barely smell the caramel and there's no saltiness as well.
We caught a 1-for-1 promo while we were there (hence the crazy amount of caffeine here), but as much as I wanted to love all the drinks we got...I really didnโt.
.
๐๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐๐ผ๐ฝ๐ถ ๐: exceedingly diluted, it basically tasted like my coffee sat there for half an hour. Let me clarify that anyone whoโs eaten with me know I take my photos in a couple of seconds โ I canโt be bothered with bringing my food to some abrupt corner โ so this definitely wasnโt a result of the coffee sitting out for long.
๐๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐๐๐๐๐ฒ๐ฟ ๐ฃ๐ฒ๐ฐ๐ฎ๐ป ๐๐ฎ๐๐๐ฒ: tastes almost exactly like buxโs toffee nut latte lol I was shooketh. The syrupโs discernible but not overly sweet, and coffee was very bold and nutty as well so this was a really enjoyable drink.
๐๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐ฆ๐ฒ๐ฎ ๐ฆ๐ฎ๐น๐ ๐๐ฎ๐ฟ๐ฎ๐บ๐ฒ๐น ๐๐ฎ๐๐๐ฒ: perhaps itโs cause their syrups arenโt overly sweet, the salt came across reeeeeally strong here โ a little too much in fact. I could taste the nutty earthy sorta caramel profile, but I didnโt get much sweetness so this really turned out to be a slightly odd drink.
๐๐ฐ๐ฒ๐ฑ ๐๐น๐ฎ๐ฐ๐ธ ๐ฆ๐ฒ๐๐ฎ๐บ๐ฒ ๐๐ผ๐ฝ๐ถ: oooh I actually loved this the most. It tasted like muah chee/sesame paste but kopi-fied. Super nutty and flavourful, and I loved that there was actual grounded sesame seeds in the drink!
.
If anything, I found that Coffee Breakโs drinks diluted really really quickly, with the Black Sesame flavour being the only exception. Still theyโve got a fab range of drinks and Iโd say give em a try anyway; perhaps the hot beverages would fare a lot better.

๐Coffee Break (Amoy St)
- Kopiโo kosongโ๏ธ
Not the cheapest Kopiโo kosong you can find at Amoy St but still, their coffee was pretty good, robust enough and that coffee aroma~
In need of this for afternoon boost.
Damage: $1.60
Hojicha Latte ($4.80) The drink really tasted not much roasted tea but the aftertaste have changed to normal milk drink *hmmm* HOUJCHA > MILK >.< I should keep my standard that it was slightly high a bit and didn't really satisfied me recently if they didn't used good power. But they got a lot of variety for drinks and toasts at coffeebreak and u all can tried their recommended drink in menu.
Tried the hazelnut latte today and itโs not too bad. Slight layer of froth at the top of the drink. I prefer their sea salt caramel latte though as it is more unique.
โข Caramel Rum Mocha, Iced (S$4.50)
Bold flavor of rum that goes well with the mocha. The level of sweetness is on point.
โข Rum & Raisin Toast (S$3.50)
Disappointed with their toast. The toasted wholemeal bread was hard and the rum & raisin cream spread was tasteless. Wouldnโt order their toast again.
Matcha Coconut Toast ($3.50) ok I finally waited their premium toast for a long time and yeah Matcha Coconut fillings just leaked out (I cri) because I left it at my bag. I just salvaged by taking it from my bag. To my surprise, ๐ I DOUBT MYSELF TO BE THINKING THIS COCONUT OR MATCHA TOAST AGAIN WHEN I EAT ON FIRST TRIES ๐ฅด. COCONUT > MATCHA ๐ค Matcha Coconut was quite good and they are also selling in bottles if you are interested to buy from them. I really like the wholemeal bread that they use it but the traditional or premium fillings for bread they are creative for selling it out.
Matcha Tea Latte ($4.80) (Less Sugar) The drink really tasted like Jasmine Green Tea but the aftertaste have changed to normal matcha latte *hmmm* I should keep my standard for Matcha slightly high a bit and didn't really satisfied me recently if they didn't used good Matcha Powder. But they got a lot of variety for drinks and toasts at coffeebreak and u all can tried their recommended drink in menu.
Love their toasts! Tried out their butter sugar, earl grey, cinnamon, peanut butter and coconut matcha flavours so far. Personal favourite is still butter sugar. They have a wide selection of drinks as well, would always get this whenever iโm in the area.
Finally managed to get the earl grey toast! The toast is filled with a generous portion of earl grey spread and butter. The earl grey taste is really prominent. The toast should be eaten immediately to enjoy its crispiness. Friendly staff!
Love at first sip. I usually only take flat white or latte unadulterated with any syrup but decided to order their best seller. Itโs creamy, milky and flavourful without being cloyingly or artificially sweet. My must buy whenever Iโm in the vicinity.
Enjoyed it a lot!!!!!! Though the price is slightly steep for a hawker coffee, but I really liked it!! The tinge of caramel was tasted and thankfully itโs not too sweet which was to my liking :-)
Wholemeal bread was used, didnโt really like it. There was a decent amount of butter, but the amount of kaya could have been more generous. The toast was crisp, but it was too thin for a satisfying crunch. Personally not a big fan of their toast!
Sadly, this sounded better than it tasted. The matcha spread didnโt taste much of matcha and instead, all I could taste was coconut (almost tasted like kaya because of that). The bread itself was also really thin and the wholemeal bread just didnโt really work out too. Give this a miss and stick to your usual old school kaya toast!
