How do I find this cafe?

It is on the second floor of Block A in Kota Damansara, inside or near MakeoverGuys. The location is difficult to spot; reviewers recommend parking at Block A and asking at MakeoverGuys. No security guard is typically available to help with directions.

Is this a good place to work or study?

Yes. Reviewers describe it as quiet with good natural lighting, ideal for focused work. However, seating is cramped with limited legroom.

The dirty latte and matcha are frequently praised. Food options like Chicken Karaage Don are described as acceptable but pricey (around RM 35 for a meal with drink).

What recent reviews say

Most visitors love the coffee quality, matcha, and calm vibe; the space has nice design touches and natural light. Service is a mixed bag: some staff are warm, but others feel aloof and consistently give dine-in customers takeaway packaging. The main friction point is the location hidden deep inside a second-floor commercial complex with confusing access, which deters repeat visits. Seating is cramped and uncomfortable for staying long.

Flying Sheep Coffee

4.8(94)✓ Verified

Reviewers consistently praise the dirty latte as the standout drink, with multiple 5-star mentions of the espresso's richness and the temperature contrast between cold milk and hot shot. The cafe earned strong marks for welcoming staff, quick service, and a cozy hidden-gem feel in Kota Damansara. Downsides include limited seating (about five tables) that makes group visits awkward, and parking difficulty in the area. Two recent 1-star reviews flagged inconsistent service and unclear communication, though these sit alongside 88% five-star ratings overall.

Tan Ngan Lo @ Sunway Giza Mall

The herbal teas and red bean soups earn consistent praise for flavor and nutrition, and the space feels calm for a quiet sit. However, multiple reviews over years flag a persistent problem: staff (particularly older female and male employees) show irritation toward customers, ignore orders, serve lukewarm drinks, and neglect table cleaning. A few staff like Wendy stood out as kind, but the rudeness complaints dominate heavily.

ZUS Coffee - Sunway Giza Mall

Staff warmth stands out here. Reviewers name Sarah, Alya, and Huda specifically, crediting them with quick orders, patient guidance, and genuine friendliness. The coffee itself earns steady praise for flavour and consistency across their espresso, Vietnamese, and matcha drinks, with pricing called affordable. The store feels bright and comfortable, and no complaints surface in recent reviews. Service times are described as reasonable, with one reviewer noting staff caught a forgotten order. Their website lists premium handcrafted coffee, Vietnamese coffee, and specialty options like matcha lattes and mango frappés.
