Singapore now has more chain coffee than ever: luckin passed 100 stores last week, Starbucks runs 128, and Malaysian and Indonesian brands keep arriving. We checked ten chains' own apps, menus, store lists and the MUIS halal register on 3 October 2026 to find what a cup really costs, who is halal, and which deal is worth downloading the app for.
Your daily latte can cost $1.73 or $9, depending only on which app you open.
> Quick view: best value is luckin ($0.99 first drink, 100 stores); cheapest kopi is Toast Box's package at $1.73 a cup to 31 Oct; most chain lattes run $4.40-$7.60, and only Kenangan, Coffee Bean, Tim Hortons and ZUS are halal-certified.
luckin opened its 100th Singapore store at Bugis Junction (80 Middle Road, #01-71/72) on 28 September 2026, and in its own announcement it calls itself the second-largest coffee chain here by store count. It is cashless and built around the app: you order and pay on your phone, then collect. New app users get their first drink for $0.99, and every friend you refer who places an order earns you another $0.99 voucher. On GrabFood its list prices are $6.00 for an Americano and $7.00 for a latte, before Grab's own discount, and app prices are usually lower again because luckin regularly pushes member coupons, and it has run a payday 1-for-1 on all coffee near the end of several months this year. Its coconut lattes are the drinks it is best known for. Not halal-certified. Most outlets open from about 7.30am to 9.30pm.
New app users: first drink $0.99, plus a $0.99 voucher for every referred friend who orders. #100LuckinMoments photo giveaway (5 gift boxes) runs to 11 Oct 2026.
Starbucks has 128 Singapore stores in its own store database, more than any other chain here, and nine of them open 24 hours: Changi T2 Departure and Transit, T3 Departure, T4, Jurong Point, Liat Towers, NUS University Town, Plaza Singapura and SingHealth Tower. It is the dearest of the big chains (GrabFood lists a Caffè Americano at $6.20 and a Caffè Latte at $7.60; in-store is usually a little lower), but the Rewards app softens it. New members get 50% off their first drink on Mobile Order & Pay, a 1-for-1 drink when they reach their first 5 Stars, and free delivery on their first Starbucks Delivers order. In your birthday month you get a free slice of cake with a drink, and Gold members also get a free drink. The autumn Roasted Macadamia drinks are on now, and Protein Cold Foam drinks launch on 7 October. Not halal-certified.
Rewards welcome treats: 50% off your first Mobile Order & Pay drink, 1-for-1 drink at your first 5 Stars, free first Starbucks Delivers order. Birthday-month cake slice with any drink.
Toast Box is the chain for Nanyang kopi and teh rather than lattes, with more than 80 outlets, and its yearly Nanyang Kopi Package is back until 31 October 2026.

Indonesia's Kenangan Coffee has 10 Singapore outlets, and every one of them is on the MUIS halal register: Raffles City, Takashimaya, Jewel (B2-255), VivoCity, Tampines Mall, Compass One, AMK Hub, IMM, Aperia and Changi T2 Departure (#02-12), which is open 24 hours. Its signature is the Kenangan Latte, sweetened with gula aren (palm sugar). The daily Everyday Combo pairs a regular drink with selected food from $4.90 (from $6.90 at the Changi stores), and a Morning Combo of a regular Americano and a butter croissant runs 7am to 12pm, except at Changi T2 and Jewel. On Mondays and Tuesdays, kiosk orders get a regular drink at 50% off when you buy a large. New app users get a 1-for-1 matcha and a $3.90 iced coffee at participating stores. None of these has a printed end date, so open the app before you order.
Everyday Combo: regular drink + selected food from $4.90 ($6.90 at Changi). Mon-Tue kiosk orders: regular at 50% off with a large. New app users: 1-for-1 matcha. No end dates printed.
The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf lists 73 stores on its locator, and 72 outlets plus its central kitchen hold MUIS halal certificates, which makes it the biggest halal coffee chain here. It also has the most round-the-clock stores of any chain: 29 are open 24 hours, including all four Changi terminals, Jewel, Bugis+, Raffles City, Forum, NEX and Jurong Point. Prices are a step below Starbucks for the specials (the new Hojicha Latte is $7.50 in any size), and the weekday breakfast sets are the value buy: $8.50 for one or $12.50 for two, Monday to Friday until 12pm. Right now any two Hojicha drinks are $12 for a limited time, and Coffee Bean says the hojicha season is almost over. CBTL Rewards gives 5 Bean Points per $1, and 50 points take $0.50 off, so about 5% back, though points do not apply at the Changi stores.
Weekday breakfast sets till 12pm: 1 for $8.50 or 2 for $12.50. Any 2 Hojicha drinks for $12, any size, for a limited time while the season lasts. No end date printed.
Canada's Tim Hortons arrived in November 2023 and now runs 17 Singapore restaurants, all of them MUIS halal-certified since early 2026. The Jurong Point outlet is open 24 hours, and others include VivoCity, Suntec, Plaza Singapura, JEM, NEX, 313@somerset (the only one with pour-over and Kyoto drip coffee) and Changi T3. Its menu card prices an Americano at $4.20 to $5.90 and a latte at $5.40 to $7.40 by size, which is cheaper than Starbucks; that menu file dates from April 2025, so prices may have moved. Its menu's promo tab currently has 30% off the Classic Twist Donut Box (usual price $17.40) and the Assorted Donut Box (usual price $23.40), plus $5, $8 and $10 deli sets, all undated. Tims Rewards is free: 1 point per $1, a free Maple Glaze donut in your birthday month, and two free regular Iced Capps for Gold members.
Menu promo: 30% off the Classic Twist Donut Box (U.P. $17.40) and Assorted Donut Box (U.P. $23.40); $5, $8 and $10 Tims Deli Sets. Birthday Maple Glaze donut for Tims Rewards members. No end date printed.
Malaysia's ZUS Coffee is small here but growing: six outlets at Marina Bay Link Mall (B2-09), Northpoint City, Westgate, Imbiah Lookout on Sentosa, Changi T4 arrival hall and Changi T1 departure hall. All six received MUIS halal certificates in July 2026, so older reviews that call it non-halal are out of date. Its best-known drink is the CEO Latte, which Foodpanda lists from $5.40, with an Americano at $4.70 (delivery prices are often a little higher than in-store). First-time app users get a Buy 1 Free 1. If you hold a PAssion Card, code ZS26PASSIONC10 takes 10% off one handcrafted drink ordered in the ZUS app, once a day, until 30 September 2027; it applies to the lowest-priced drink in the order.

Cotti Coffee, the China chain founded by luckin's former founders, has the lowest everyday prices we found, but it has shrunk to three Singapore outlets: Orchard Gateway (#B2-06), Grantral Mall in MacPherson and The Seletar Mall (#B1-K10), open 9am to 8.30pm. Its earlier One Raffles Link, Tekka Place and Changi City Point stores are no longer on its store list. In the app on 3 October, an Americano was $2.90 on a flash price (list $3.60), a cappuccino $3.50 (list $4.40) and a latte or flat white $3.96 (list $4.40), with flavoured drinks at $5.31 (list $5.90). The flash prices have no printed end date. Order ahead in the app and collect. Not halal-certified.

Kyoto's % Arabica is the one to choose when the coffee matters more than the price. It has eight Singapore outlets: Arab Street, 313@somerset, Chip Bee Gardens (44 Jalan Merah Saga), CapitaSpring (86 Market Street), The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands (#01-75/76), IOI Central Boulevard (weekdays only), 18 Cross Street and a new all-white kiosk at Jewel Changi Airport (#01-K208). Hours vary a lot by outlet, and some close at 3pm, so check before you go. It does not publish prices online; its last published price list put a hot Caffe Latte at about $7 and the Kyoto and Spanish lattes higher. There is no loyalty app or running promotion, and its newest item is a shiopan salt butter bread at selected outlets. Not halal-certified.

We ranked chains on what a regular coffee drinker in Singapore cares about: price per cup after the app deals, how many outlets are near you, whether it is halal, and how good the coffee is. On 3 October 2026 we read each chain's own app or menu, its store locator or official outlet list, its latest Instagram posts and, for halal status, the MUIS register itself rather than a blog. Promotions that ended before 3 October (luckin's $2.99 cups, Kenangan's payday Buy 1 Free 1, Starbucks' Venti 1-for-1) are left out.
By sticker price, Cotti Coffee: an Americano was $2.90 on its app flash price on 3 October 2026, and a latte $3.96, but it has only three outlets. Per cup, Toast Box's Nanyang Kopi Package is cheaper still, at $1.73 a cup for 80 small hot kopi ($138), on sale until 31 October 2026. New luckin app users also get their first drink for $0.99.
On the MUIS register on 3 October 2026: Kenangan Coffee (all 10 outlets), The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf (72 outlets plus its central kitchen), Tim Hortons (all 17 outlets) and ZUS Coffee (all 6 outlets, certified July 2026). Starbucks, luckin coffee, Toast Box, Cotti Coffee, TOMORO Coffee and % Arabica are not halal-certified.
Starbucks, with 128 stores in its own store database as of October 2026. luckin coffee is next at 100 stores after opening its 100th at Bugis Junction on 28 September 2026, followed by Toast Box (over 80) and The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf (73).
The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf has the most, with 29 stores open 24 hours, including all four Changi terminals, Jewel, Bugis+, Raffles City and Jurong Point. Starbucks has nine (including Changi T2, T3 and T4, Jurong Point, Liat Towers and Plaza Singapura), and Kenangan Coffee's Changi T2 kiosk and Tim Hortons at Jurong Point also run round the clock.
