Cheaper food and drinks will be available at 140 coffee shops across the island, as five coffee shop chains celebrate the 60th anniversary of Singapore's independence in 2025.

The coffee shops operated by Badaling, Broadway, Chang Cheng, Koufu and Select Group are offering different deals till the end of the year, from 60-cent canned drinks and hot beverages to $6 set meals for two people.

At 24 out of 45 FoodHub outlets run by Badaling, customers who spend $6 in a single receipt can get a canned drink, such as F&N Pineapple Juice or Pokka Japanese Roasted Tea, for just 60 cents.

This offer started in mid-March and will last until mid-September.

In July and August, 26 out of 32 Chang Cheng outlets will sell an SG60 breakfast for two for $6. It comprises one kopi-o kosong (coffee without milk and sugar), one teh-o kosong (tea without milk and sugar), two sets of traditional kaya toast and four half-boiled eggs.

Chang Cheng chief financial officer Jacky Peh said: "We want to encourage everyone to embrace healthier beverage choices by reducing sugar intake."
