Kopi and Coffee

Starbucks

• Open throughout Chinese New Year
• See the full list of Starbucks outlets that are open during CNY

Not able to find a nice list indicating the opening hours of the local kopi joints but if you click on the Shopping Centre links, you will find some of the kopi joints are open. Here are some I found but this is not the entire list.

• Toastbox open @ Plaza Singapura, Changi Airport
• Yakun — Closed even at Changi Airport, so I can quite confidently say that Yakun is not open for both days of Chinese New Year

Where to shop during Chinese New Year, where to eat during CNY or where to have kopi? Is Takashimaya open on CNY? Is ION Orchard open on CNY? Which shopping centres are open on Chinese New Year? Is Yakun open on Chinese New Year? Now you know….but please, spend some quality time with your family and relatives first!
