The Best Coworking Spaces in Tanjong Pagar
If you had to pick one neighbourhood in Singapore that sums up how work actually happens now, it would probably be Tanjong Pagar. Old shophouses sit a few minutes' walk from glass towers full of banks and law firms. The MRT interchange means you can be in Raffles Place, Chinatown or Marina Bay in one stop. And when the laptop finally shuts for the day, you're surrounded by some of the best food and bars in the city.
It's also become one of the densest pockets for coworking space in Singapore, which is great news if you're on workbuddy, because it means you've got real choice depending on what kind of day you're having. Better yet, you don't have to commit to any of them upfront. workbuddy gives you a free trial to actually sit down in these spaces and see which one fits before you spend a cent on a membership. Here are three coworking spaces in Tanjong Pagar worth knowing about.
WeWork, 60 Anson Road
This one's a good pick on a day you actually need to think. It's a single level space, so there's none of the multi floor shuffle you get at bigger WeWork locations, and it runs quieter and cosier as a result. You'll find private offices, proper meeting rooms, and an onsite game room for when your brain needs five minutes off. Tanjong Pagar MRT is close by, and you're a short walk from plenty of restaurants and bars if you're taking a client out afterwards.
Address: 60 Anson Road, Level 17, Singapore 079914
Penguins Coworking, International Plaza
Penguins has one of the best commutes of any coworking space in Singapore, because it sits directly above Tanjong Pagar MRT. If you're coming from anywhere on the East West or North East lines, you can go from platform to desk in under two minutes. Inside, you've got a mix of hot desks, dedicated desks and private window suites with proper skyline views, plus a pantry stocked with coffee, tea and water. It's a solid option if you want the option to book a private office suite for a day or a week without any long term commitment.
Address: 10 Anson Road, #33-15 International Plaza, Singapore 079903
N9 Offices, AirView Building
Tucked away on Peck Seah Street, N9 Offices is about five minutes on foot from both Tanjong Pagar and Maxwell MRT stations. What stands out here is the hot desk setup. Each one is partitioned for a bit of privacy and comes with a 30 inch monitor and an ergonomic chair, so it's a genuinely good option if you're doing a full day of screen heavy work rather than just checking email between meetings. There's an onsite concierge team during the week too, so it doesn't feel like you're just letting yourself into an empty office.
Address: 2 Peck Seah Street, Singapore
