What recent reviews say

CawanMu wins strong loyalty for its on-site baked croissants, which reviewers repeatedly praise as buttery and delicious. Staff warmth and fair pricing anchor repeat visits, though a recent breakfast order disappointed with poorly executed eggs and salty premix tea served in plastic.

De' kampung Boy cafe

4.9(44)

Visitors consistently praise the rich, homemade-tasting dishes, from rendang with ketupat palas to Nasi Goreng Kambing, paired with genuinely warm owners who translate menus and share Malaysian food knowledge. The small kampung-style shop stands out for being uncommonly clean, halal-certified, quick with service, and priced fairly for the portion sizes. Shima and Misam run a place where guests feel welcomed and guided through dishes. One reviewer noted hair in food, but the overwhelming pattern across 44 reviews centres on flavour depth, staff warmth, and a nostalgic authenticity most visitors associate with family cooking rather than commercial kitchens.

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.

Coffee and pastries draw repeat visits, with reviewers praising the beans, homemade donuts, and quiet second-floor space. Service swings dramatically: some staff shine, others are coldly dismissive or slow to start mornings; food delivery and order accuracy also slip at times. Located on Jalan Bandar Timah in the Old Town, this air-conditioned cafe sits apart from traditional kopitiams. Prices run high for the area. Clean restrooms, free WiFi, and careful plating of sweets stand out when service is on.
