What recent reviews say

Strong coffee and hearty brunch draw repeat visitors; the big breakfast with house-cured pork products and sourdough garners particular praise. Staff remain friendly and portions satisfying even after years.

Specialty pour-overs and house-roasted beans underpin the coffee offer. Takeaway packaging problems have stung two recent customers. Pricing sits above comparable spots, which some feel misaligns with the casual interior.

Staff speed and friendliness stand out: Syafiqah and Shamil get named praise for welcoming service. Coffee quality stays consistent across visits, never too sweet, and the menu breadth means regulars find something new each time. The outlet is clean with working WiFi, and the ZUS app cuts wait times even during rushes.

Plant-based comfort food at reasonable prices draws regulars who appreciate the relaxed atmosphere and free wifi for working or studying. Staff friendliness stands out, though consistency wavers: orders occasionally go astray, and some descriptions mislead on heat levels. The vegetarian focus is genuine, and sockets, long tables, and a quiet vibe suit solo workers and groups alike. A few visits surfaced hygiene concerns and staff attitude dips, so parking and menu clarity merit attention before your first trip. Most return for the affordability and library-cafe feel rather than standout coffee.

Staff warmth stands out here. Regulars name specific team members (Hasis, Nabil, Muaz, Ching) who remember orders, suggest drinks by taste, and work with a smile even near closing. The two-floor space, less crowded than typical chains, suits quiet work or family outings; a pager system helps those upstairs track their order. Pizza and cakes draw praise for not being oversweetened. Rough evenings happen: one reviewer found the upstairs locked at 10 pm despite an 11 pm closing, with just two staff working and twenty-minute waits for ready-made desserts. A double-chocolate drink came cloyingly sweet, and one guest met rudeness from a staff member. The branch does not always deliver consistent drinks or open both floors reliably.
