What recent reviews say

109 Coffee MY delivers traditional Malaysian comfort food in a converted bungalow, run by owners Mango and Michelle (from Bukit Mertajam), who win consistent praise for warmth and home-style cooking. The prawn mee (RM 15) stands out for bold broth and three large prawns, though patrons should expect leisurely service and tight parking in old town.

  • distinctive home-cooked flavours
  • generous portions
  • specialty prawn mee with rich broth
Watch-outs
  • slow service during peak times
  • poor air conditioning/heat buildup
  • difficult parking in old town location

Yes, pet-friendly outdoor seating is available.
What's the signature dish?
The prawn mee (RM 15) comes with 3 large prawns and bold, flavourful broth.
Should I expect a long wait?
Food preparation is slower due to home-style cooking rather than pre-prepared items; waits extend during peak hours, and one customer reported 45 minutes for coffee.

Shoon Lee draws regular traffic for its Penang-style kway teow soup, which most find deeply flavored with quality broth and plentiful toppings, though a few prefer richer broths than what's served. The kopitiam is clean and airy with nostalgic charm, affordable prices, and reliable execution on core dishes like popiah and lobak; minor complaints touch on occasional heat in the space and hit-or-miss side orders.

Contour

Contour delivers solid specialty coffee and French pastries in a photogenic Old Town setting with large windows and rustic charm. Expect quality output most visits, though prices lean high and weekend crowds make the space loud; staff stay friendly even when busy, but products occasionally miss (stale bread, dry bakes), and parking nearby is tight.

Tingkap delivers genuine traditional Malaysian breakfast and lunch in a warmly decorated vintage kampung setting that draws repeat visits. The appeal fades if you arrive after 10am when popular items sell out quickly, and restroom upkeep is a recurring weak point.
