There’s A Gorgeous New Glasshouse Cafe At Changi Airport's T2 That’s Surrounded By Nature
Only in Singapore do locals travel all the way to the airport just to hang out, but hey, we do have one of the best airports in the world and it’s full of food, shopping, and entertainment options that can last us through a whole day and more. The next time you make a trip there, venture out from the confines of T2 and head to Hub & Spoke, the newest cafe there.
Unlike the other eateries at Changi Airport, this cafe is in a standalone building - specifically, a beautiful glasshouse that will let you soak in the scenic views all around.

Hub & Spoke is located right outside Terminal 2 of Changi Airport, opposite the car park. It is easily accessible via the Changi Airport Connector, a new park connector that serves as a bridge between the airport and East Coast Park. This is a pet-friendly and cyclist-friendly establishment with shower facilities you can use for a fee, so feel free to bike over with your furkids in tow!

With the high ceiling and wide glass windows, the cafe has an “open” feel, giving you the experience of dining amidst nature, but in air-conditioned comfort.
