RendezVu Cafe & Shisha Lounge

Head up to Clarendon Road and you'll find yourself in a café that gets the balance right—decent espresso drinks and pastries by day, then morphs into a proper shisha lounge come evening. It's the kind of place where you can genuinely settle in without feeling rushed, whether you're nursing a flat white or sharing a hookah with mates. The vibe is unpretentious and genuinely social; locals actually hang about here, which says everything about the atmosphere.
