A charming little spot, highly recommended by a friend who couldn’t stop raving about the taro coffee. This place definitely takes its coffee seriously. A buzzing hub for caffeine lovers with a laid-back, slightly hipster vibe. Seating is limited both indoors and outdoors, but if it’s full, the park across the road offers public benches for a relaxed alternative.
The menu, printed simply on a double-sided card, features an array of inventive caffeinated creations- from matcha-flavoured coffee and black sesame coffee to a Malaysian-inspired blend reminiscent of teh tarik, boldly sweetened with condensed milk. Their fresh and distinctive signature mixes clearly enjoy a strong local following.
If hot coffee isn’t your thing, most drinks are also available cold (though I do wish they didn’t come in single-use plastic cups). They also offer alternative beverages such as teas and sodas.
Service is brisk yet friendly, though a little different from your usual café experience- drinks are handmade with care, so a bit of patience is required, especially when queues form. That said, takeaway is a popular option. Most patrons seem to embrace the slower pace. Do note the limited opening hours- it’s worth checking ahead before making your way over.
Parking is straightforward, with on-street options or an empty lot next door that seems to be used.
