K-Style Coffee: Central gets a spacious underground cafe, designed by Korean brand Coffee Exchange.

Look & Feel: With high ceilings, teal motifs and plenty of communal sylvan tables to choose from, Coffee Central by Coffee Exchange is a lofty (and relatively rare) gem right in the heart of the city.

On the Menu: Coffee Central of course serves its namesake, in many different styles besides. But beyond the usual flat whites and long blacks, there are also more intriguing items like hongsam (Korean ginseng) coffee. Food-wise, there’s a daily menu of sandwich options, and treats like brownie cakes and cheese brioches to go along.

Great For: Casual lunch, coffee break, an afternoon of freelancing.

FYI: There’s one hour of free Wi-Fi for customers.
