Besides being the city of arts and culture in Australia, Melbourne is also known for their coffee culture, serving some of the best ones in the world, which is why nobody really goes to Starbucks over there. While it’s not as strong in Singapore as it is over there, there has been a steady growth when it comes to cafe culture (as opposed to coffee culture) here, which is why online specialty coffee bean retailer Cafebond.com is collaborating with Italian coffee machine brand De’Longhi for Singapore’s first Melbourne cafe street pop-up at Millenia Walk Atrium from May 18-22. They’ll be bringing in Industry Beans, Market Lane, and St. Ali who’ll be brewing free cups of coffee of your choice from 11am-5pm.
While you’re enjoying your free cuppas, you can walk around these cafes and learn more about the stories behind them, the coffees they make and the beans they use. The event is also in partnership with Harvey Norman’s flagship store at Millenia Walk to give customers a first-hand experience of the coffee machines in their catalog.
