Book NowAbout Hamilton's Coffee • Burgers • Fried Chicken
Tucked along a quiet strip in Mont Albert, Hamilton's pairs barista-pulled espresso with serious griddle craft. Regulars drop by for thick Black Angus patties and the house Popeye's chicken sandwich—stacked with scratch-made pickles on toasted buns. The standout move is leaning into the Japanese fusion twists: wasabi seasoning, or crunchy chips tossed in Japanese mayo, roasted seaweed, and sesame. Take an outdoor seat under the village awning and sip a proper Uji matcha latte while the kitchen cooks to order.

Florence Lin Popeye's Chicken Sandwich
Had the Popeye's chicken sandwich. It's very true to the original Popeye's from the states, and even better since the chicken and pickles are all house made.
