Beer Teller Cafe

4.2(31)✓ Google-verified

Beer Teller markets itself as an Indian pub and bar with live Tamil music nights, good beer, and shisha. Food gets consistent praise from older reviews, but recent visits report staff rudeness, outdated hours, and unavailable menu items despite Google advertising them.

Cold Blue Specialty Coffee

4.6(447)✓ Google-verified

Cold Blue draws regulars for carefully made specialty coffee in a serene, clean space in old Ipoh. Staff are warm and responsive, and most find the coffee worth the trip. Some struggle to find the second-floor spot despite signage efforts, and while waffles and bagels impress, cakes and some food items disappoint; seating could be cushier, and prices lean high for the portions you get.
