Karpal Singh Drive, the seafront road on the island's eastern shore, has a new cafe worth stopping at. Nami Coffee opened in August 2026 with a focus on artisan gelato made in-house, alongside hand-brewed and espresso-based coffee.
Around 10 gelato flavours are available each day and they rotate regularly. Classics such as matcha, houjicha, chocolate and pistachio sit alongside more adventurous creations, including a Musang King durian gelato and a limited-edition Nasi Lemak Gelato for the curious. If you want something warm, there is a Chocolate Lava Cake on the dessert list too.
The setting is the main draw: a sea-facing cafe on one of the island's breezier promenades. It works well as an after-dinner dessert stop, a weekend coffee date or a cool-down after a jog along the waterfront. Families with kids who want ice cream will also like it, while gelato fans should go early in the day if they want the full flavour line-up before popular scoops sell out.
Hours, prices and the exact unit number were not listed in the source we checked, so confirm them on the cafe's own social media before visiting. We will update this page once details are verified.
