Reviewers praise the owner's warmth, crispy kaya puffs, and rustic brick interior; regulars return for pan mee and siew pau. Expect friendly service and affordable prices, though availability can be patchy and seating is tight outside.

Reviewers keep praising the warm service and the fresh croissants. Many say the prices feel fair for what arrives on the plate. Guests like the clean, cosy room and the easy pace for a quiet meal. Fans single out the croissant shawarma, the durian puff, and the Passion Splash Tea. The menu mixes Malaysian dishes with western items, such as Kuey Teow and nasi lemak. One reviewer found the Mee Mamak portion thin for RM16.90, and another wanted a baby chair.

Reviewers see a calm, clean, air-conditioned room that suits a break from Ipoh's heat. Many praise the coffee and the big chocolate donut. Prices draw the most criticism, and several say the food did not match the cost. Service splits opinion. Some guests found staff sweet and professional, while others felt brushed off or were billed for a cake they never ordered. A few reported confusing opening times and last-order cutoffs, so check hours before you visit.
