We ordered a flat white here & what we got was this. no foam at all, no latte art, just black coffee with milk. This for 5,40 € is unacceptable.

The coffee at PAUL Le Cafe was welcomed as I woke up from my transit break at Changi Airport. I grabbed myself a salad roll, pastry and cappuccino. Great coffee shop in Changi Airport.

I landed at 6 am at changi airport. What i expect is a calm place to rest and relish the authenticity of coffee. Paul le cafe is the perfect place for it. A calm atmosphere or silent airport adds to the experience

It was a joy to find a cafe that's not one of the generic chains. Nice cappuccino, a fresh adult iced tea (house made and not too sweet!) and a tasty white choc chip muffin. Recommended.
