[Announcement | Temporary Closure ā Taking a Break to Recharge]
Thank you for your support over the past 12 years and for making this place part of your everyday life.
Waffling Beans has always treasured that comforting moment when you walk in: ordering your usual coffee, sitting in your favourite spot, and having a chat about life.
But precisely because weāve been on this journey for so long, we donāt want āfamiliarā to turn into āstagnantā. Running the cafĆ© at a high intensity day after dayāserving coffees, restocking, cleaning, and closing upātakes its toll. Over time, itās not just me who gets tired; our team can also lose their spark in the constant rush. What matters most to us is this: when everyone is simply āgetting through todayā, it becomes hard to do things with care and detail, and even harder to look after one another properly.
So weāve decided to press pause and take a break for a while. This time isnāt about leavingāitās about resetting and improving: making roles and workflows clearer, building a more structured training and handover system, creating more balanced rostering, and aligning our communication and service standards. We want the business to run more smoothly and harmoniously, and for our team to feel a stronger sense of belongingāso we can keep moving forward together.
Waffling Beans plans to return after Lunar New Year 2026, once weāve recharged and made the necessary adjustments. We hope to come back in a better place, ready to welcome both familiar faces and new friends to sit down and enjoy a coffee with us.
Finally, weād like to wish everyone a Happy Lunar New Year, and hereās to an even better 2026! šš§§
Thank you for your understanding and supportāweāll miss you, and we canāt wait to see you again soon. āļøāØ
