OLDTOWN brings Ipoh white coffee to a modern, air-conditioned space with picture menus and consistent service that appeals to families and tourists seeking convenience over traditional kopitiam atmosphere. Staff like Esther earn repeat visits; pricing is moderate for the comfort and ease of payment options.
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 Food gets consistent praise from older reviews, but recent visits report staff rudeness, outdated hours, and unavailable menu items despite Google advertising them.
Coffee at Cold Blue is consistently praised as fresh and well-executed, backed by their own roastery. The space feels calm and welcoming when you find it, with plug points for laptops and a design that draws coffee enthusiasts and friends seeking quiet time. Signage is the real friction: the second-floor corner location is genuinely hard to spot, and some dishes (lemon cake, brownie) underwhelm. Service swings between attentive and dismissive depending on the visit, and prices on coffee lean high for the amount you get, though waffles and bagels generally land better.
Matcha latte and specialty drinks draw steady praise for quality and thoughtful touches like fresh strawberries from Cameron Highlands. Staff earn consistent compliments for warmth and willingness to help. Space is quiet and comfortable with appealing design, though no air conditioning. A few notes: pistachio flavour can be subtle, card payments aren't available, and cups are small for the price.
