What recent reviews say

Most visitors praise the smoked meat dishes and portion sizes, calling the food worth the low prices. Service and punctuality are the stumbling blocks: staff forget walk-in orders when Grab deliveries surge, items sell out mid-meal, and published hours can be misleading.

  • generous portions
  • friendly owner and staff
  • great broth and gravy
Watch-outs
  • hours posted on Google don't match actual opening times
  • long waits for orders and drinks
  • menu items run out without warning

Reviewers consistently praise the coffee strength and find good value at this specialty roaster. The waterside setting and friendly staff stand out, though one critic flagged that the small cup size doesn't match the RM12 price point for what feels like mostly ice.
