The first time I heard about Moana was a few years back when my friend mentioned that there was a new coffee place in the CBD which looked really romantic during Friday nights. I’m not sure whether Moana was still doing this but back then, the whole rooftop area at the balcony lit up with heaps of fairy lights. That was my first introduction to the renovated heritage building of Moana Chambers.

Over the years I’ve been coming back for many coffee cups and banana bread which is a perfect quick meal for me. Moana never failed to serve a hot cup of coffee and to this day, I have never experienced coffee that was burnt!

The two latest things that I tried at Moana was the London Fog which was a mixture of Earl Grey latte with vanilla and steamed milk. I only wished that they served this in a mug because the London Fog smells so beautiful and calming which also represents the flavour that you’re getting.

Another drink that I tried was the Almond Milk and Maple Cold Brew, which was my top choice out of the 3 flavours that they offer. This was so amazing that I kept on coming back for more although it’s very important to keep in mind that Moana’s Cold Brew is always in high demand (at least during many weekends when I visited them).

With a great service, good coffee made from Five Senses beans and delicious food, I hope that Moana will stay around for a very long time!
