Reviewers praise the owner's warmth, crispy kaya puffs, and rustic brick interior; regulars return for pan mee and siew pau. Expect friendly service and affordable prices, though availability can be patchy and seating is tight outside.

Reviewers see a calm, clean, air-conditioned room that suits a break from Ipoh's heat. Many praise the coffee and the big chocolate donut. Prices draw the most criticism, and several say the food did not match the cost. Service splits opinion. Some guests found staff sweet and professional, while others felt brushed off or were billed for a cake they never ordered. A few reported confusing opening times and last-order cutoffs, so check hours before you visit.
