What do customers say?

Most reviewers come for the atmosphere: a dark, minimalist room with soft background music. Tea drinks such as roasted oolong and pandan tea earn the most praise, and the food is often called good. Prices run on the high side, and parking is a common gripe.

Service is the main split. Some guests describe warm, well-mannered staff, while others say the team seemed distant or even rude. Cakes get mixed marks, and a few reviewers feel the coffee range is limited.

Diners often praise the local food, especially the coffee, soy milk, and Nyonya kueh. Many say the food is worth the trip. Service is the weak spot. Some reviewers report wrong or lost orders, a long wait, and one found an insect in a drink. The menu is wide, from curry noodle and asam laksa to fried wanton and turnip cake. Reviewers say the assam laksa and tea drinks stand out. Parking is hard to find nearby at busy times, and portions of curry noodle meat drew a complaint.
