遇到一場午後的雷陣雨，臨時找了個躲雨的地方，小小的咖啡廳只有四張桌子，但氣氛很好，店主微笑很療癒，點了一杯咖啡靜靜的等雨停，是個適合放空的地方

my experience wasn’t what I had hoped for. While the café's environment is pleasant and cozy, the coffee left much to be desired. I found it lacking in both flavor and overall quality. Unfortunately, I wouldn't recommend it for coffee lovers looking for a great brew. That said, the ambiance might appeal to some if you're just looking for a place to relax.

I hope they can improve the coffee in the future.

If you like premium coffee with a good price of RM11.90 and the milk they use is also high class, then come here! The coffee is well roasted and blend together well with the milk. I will come back again.

Cozy environment and good drinks, space are very limited but it is just nice to sit there and watch by the road and people passing through.

We happened to pass by this cafe and saw decent reviews, however were sceptical because it was empty.

We asked the person for two shots of espresso and specially mentioned that the coffee should be strong.

When the coffee arrived, we noticed that the Color was light, and after clarifying it was indeed with two espresso shots. This felt extremely milky and tasted more like an instant coffee.

We couldn’t take it after a sip so wasted it 🙁

There are better coffee roasters and cafés in George Town so would recommend to pls skip this.

Let's start off with the cafe itself. I really dig the "small cafe at the side of the road" vibe. And the interior was really nice. Kinda have that minimalist thing going for em. You know the kind of hidden small cafe you sometimes find in Japan or Korea. More than enough to enjoy your morning coffee while looking at cars passing by. Mind you I say small cafe so don't go bringing your whole hipster gang here. The only gripe I have is that "Yiruma" song they always play. Just put on some lofi songs and let it run the whole day 😀.
Now comes the food. Overall it's okay. Just enough to get you through the day. Not much when it comes to selection but it's there so take it or leave it. Again for me that's just enough.
And now for the one thing you've been waiting for. The COFFEE and again for me it was okay. But then that's not much of a review innit. The beans they used were okay. Commercial grade beans which they roast on their own. I have a feeling they used medium roast beans. Or dark roast. Or maybe they mixed both who knows. The cafe guy said they're using Ethiopian coffee. So arabica for sure. The coffee's on the lighter side. Not too bitter. Slightly acidic. A bit watery. Probably the espresso machine. I'm no coffee purist. I'm okay even if it's a bit watery as long as it's not too acidic or god forbid fckn salty.
So would I recommend you go here? Yeah for sure. But don't be a dickhead with your purist shit. This is commercial grade beans. This ain't no specialty shop. But if you're okay with good coffee and a quality atmosphere then this is one of THE cafes to go to. Just go by yourself or in a group of 2 or maybe 3. That's it from me. Good coffee everyone.
