What recent reviews say

Pages Book Cafe draws remote workers and book lovers to its quiet Ara Damansara location with reliable WiFi, abundant outlets, and an inviting wall of books. The espresso drinks earn consistent praise, and standout pasta dishes (especially aglio olio with garlic confit) command repeat visits, though service gaps and inconsistent food execution have disappointed some recent visitors.

The owner took over the cafe a few months ago; current regulars note improved quality and warm hospitality. Sourdough, pastries, and board games round out the draw. Free parking is ample. Some pricing on pasta and dishes like their bestseller chocolate cake prompted questions about value, and one reviewer caught a staff member texting during an order.

Underscore Coffee

4.4(605)✓ Verified

Staff greet regulars with genuine warmth and remember orders; coffee tastes clean and rich, rosti and baked goods (shiopan, banoffee tart, matcha mudpie) are standouts that regulars seek out specifically. Weekend crowds mean 30-minute waits, and a recent menu overhaul removed beloved items like the Katsu Pesto Rice Bowl that drove repeat visits; pet policies lack clarity for Muslim diners, and portions feel tight against prices. The in-house cat Haru is a notable fixture. Latte art requests get fulfilled. Outdoor seating could use tidying. Best visited on weekday mornings to avoid the crush.

Latibule Coffee

4.6(141)✓ Verified

Latibule draws regulars for its specialty coffee, vintage Japanese kissaten ambience with vinyl records, and standout desserts like egg pudding and burnt cheesecake. The low-light, quiet environment suits solo work and reading, though weekend crowds can fill tables quickly. Staff handle service recovery well, but availability of signature items fluctuates when the pastry chef is away, and one serious review raised concerns about inconsistent dessert access for non-regular customers. Most visitors find the coffee crafted with care, from drip-on Ethiopia to dark roast Brazil Parana. The Sibeh Dirty Latte pairs well with cheesecakes. Order and pay by QR code at the counter. Reviewers wish for later opening hours, and the cafe sets a quiet, library-like tone that suits concentration but not boisterous groups.

W PLACE | Pet-Friendly Cafe

4.6(699)✓ Verified

W Place draws pet owners and diners seeking a casual spot where dogs and cats feel welcome. The owner actively engages with guests, offers complimentary treats for pets, and serves hearty dishes like mala hotpot and pasta at reasonable prices. Service stumbles when understaffed, and hygiene varies-some find it spotless while others note cat hair on furnishings and dishes, a real concern if you prefer a hair-free meal.
