The texture is a traditional Ipoh white coffee house with a small museum upstairs. One reviewer praised server Newton by name. Some guests found the white coffee not to their taste, and the upstairs museum was called small and unexciting.

4.6(67)

Most visitors love the cheung fun and Ipoh white coffee here, praising fresh ingredients and homemade chili sauce at fair prices. The space offers quiet, air-conditioned comfort ideal for a quick bite or peaceful meal with friendly staff. A few guests hit slow service, salty or overdone dishes, and small portions for the price. Kitchen smoke sometimes drifts to the front, and one visitor was charged for restroom use without forewarning. Overall a reliable local spot despite occasional lapses.
