Common Man Coffee Roasters Near Me

If you searched for a common man coffee roasters near me in Singapore, you’ve several to choose from, not one. Common Man Coffee Roasters runs five outlets across the island, from the Martin Road flagship at Robertson Quay to the Joo Chiat shophouse in the east and the Quayside Isle site at Sentosa, plus a CBD nook on Stanley Street and the Anchorpoint cafe on Alexandra Road. This guide lists every outlet with its address, hours, and nearest transport, so you can pick the closest one and check it’s open before you travel.

Where is the nearest Common Man Coffee Roasters?

The five outlets cover the centre, west, east, and Sentosa, so most Singapore residents have one within a reasonable trip. Martin Road is the flagship at Robertson Quay, Stanley Street sits in the CBD near Tanjong Pagar, Joo Chiat serves the east, Alexandra Road serves Queenstown, and Quayside Isle serves Sentosa. A directory listing also names an ION Orchard outlet, but the official locations page and the five-outlet review don’t confirm it, so treat ION Orchard as unverified and check before travelling there.

Use the table below to find your closest outlet, then check its hours in the next section, since hours differ by outlet and by day. Joo Chiat is the only outlet with late evening hours, while Martin Road and Stanley Street close at 6pm, which catches out visitors who assume every cafe runs late.

Which outlet should I pick?

Pick by what matters most to you, since the five rooms are genuinely different. Martin Road is the original and the most complete expression of the brand, with the roastery behind the cafe, but it’s also the busiest at weekends, with queues reported at 30 to 45 minutes. Joo Chiat is the calm shophouse pick, with sidewalk tables and a neighbourhood feel, plus the Night Shift evening service that turns the same room into a wine bar with natural wines and sourdough pizzas.

Stanley Street suits a CBD coffee stop or a working lunch, with booth seats and a calm palette of beige and midnight blue. Alexandra Road suits a long, quiet visit, with a big open room, a long shared bench, and no time pressure reported by visitors. Quayside Isle is the pick if the setting matters most, since it’s the only outlet with a waterfront table. First-timers who want the full experience should go to Martin Road on a weekday, and everyone else should pick the closest outlet and save the flagship for a quiet day.

Best outlet for first-timers

Martin Road on a weekday is the first-timer pick. You get the flagship room, the roastery aroma, the full menu, and a much shorter queue than the weekend crowd faces. Arrive before 9:30am if you go on a weekend, or pick Joo Chiat instead for a calmer first visit with the same coffee menu.

What are the opening hours?

Hours differ by outlet, so check your outlet before you travel. Martin Road and Stanley Street both run 7:30am to 6pm every day, according to the official locations page. Joo Chiat runs Monday 7:30am to 5pm and Tuesday to Sunday 7:30am to 9:30pm, with evening reservations from 5:30pm for the Night Shift service. Alexandra Road hours vary by listing, with some listings showing 7:30am to 10pm on most days and 7:30am to 5pm on Monday and Tuesday, so confirm that outlet’s hours on the day.

Two practical notes. First, Martin Road and Stanley Street don’t take reservations, so walk-ins are the only option and weekend queues apply. Second, Joo Chiat is the only outlet where you can book, and only from 5:30pm onwards, so lunch visits there are walk-in too. If you travel for a late coffee, Joo Chiat is your only safe bet among the confirmed outlets.

How do I get there by MRT and bus?

Most outlets need a short walk or a bus ride after the MRT, so plan the last leg, not just the station. Joo Chiat is the clearest case: the Eatbook review calls it a short bus ride from Dakota and Eunos MRT stations, and calls it fairly inaccessible by public transport, so budget a bus or a taxi. Martin Road sits at Robertson Quay, walkable from the Clarke Quay and Fort Canning area, while Stanley Street sits in the CBD near Tanjong Pagar and Telok Ayer stations.

Alexandra Road’s Anchorpoint sits near the Queenstown area, and Quayside Isle needs a Sentosa trip, so check the Sentosa entry and transport options before you go. For drivers, Martin Road has paid parking nearby, though one review warns parking can be difficult in the busy area. When in doubt, take a taxi or a ride-hail to the outlet, since the last walk is often the confusing part, especially for Joo Chiat and Sentosa.
