PULP Cafe Bangsar

The staff were SO friendly and helpful. They made me feel at home and well taken care of. They also had the option of making espresso based drinks decaf! The decaf latte was great and the chicken rice meal was very nice, beautiful presentation. I’m looking forward to trying some pastries the next time I go back. Great food, great service, nice atmosphere… definitely worth a visit.

PULP is a stylish café housed in the old NST printing facility, now a vibrant hub surrounded by chic eateries and creative spaces. I dropped by just for coffee, skipping the food menu. The long black was brewed with dark roast beans, a bit too bold for my personal preference. The macha latte was smooth and decent, though not particularly memorable. That said, service was warm and efficient, and the staff made the experience pleasant. The atmosphere is great, industrial yet cozy, with a touch of creative charm that fits the space’s heritage. While the coffee didn’t quite hit my usual taste profile, the overall vibe and setting make it a nice spot for a quiet coffee break or casual meetup.

The place is full of people working on laptops (it seems like a workspace, not a cafe), so it is problematic to sit down at a table. The description of the food is interesting, but in fact there is nothing special. They brought me just a bun with a cutlet and processed cheese, I ordered a cold cappuccino - they brought a cold latte. My wife ordered a bagel with an extra egg, the egg was brought only after asking.

I had my first experience at this café in APW and tried their seasonal menu item — Deng Deng Deck, a pulled beef focaccia open sandwich. My boyfriend gave it a very good review, and while I found it flavorful, it was a little too salty for my taste. We also had the classic APT (avocado poached egg toast), which was good, although not particularly memorable. That said, their sourdough bread was excellent. Of course, I had to try something sweet for my café hopping adventure, so I went for the Gula Melaka French Toast. It was wonderfully fluffy, and I loved how they added tangerine to the dish — it helped balance out the sweetness perfectly. Overall, it’s a decent café for a great breakfast or brunch.

When the highly popular APW - a space reinvented into a bustling commercial area from what used to be a printing company, PULP has been one of the pioneer tenants here. Located on the left right after entering the entrance, PULP has been a mainstay cafe serving quality coffee to caffeine addicts. Utilising natural lightning, the entire cafe is bright and inviting especially in the morning. My cup of long black provided the much needed jolt to wake me up from half sleep. Next time I'll be back for their single origin beans prepared via V60 style. Note: I adore the huge Astroboy figurine standing at one corner of the cafe.

PULP Café in Bangsar is a genuinely nice place to spend time — bright, airy, and effortlessly chill, with the kind of ambience that makes it easy to unwind, read, or catch up with a friend. The space has that polished yet relaxed vibe that many cafés try to create but few execute this well, and it’s one of the reasons people keep coming back. The coffee, however, is pretty average. It’s drinkable and consistent, but not particularly remarkable, especially given Bangsar’s competitive café landscape. You come here more for the vibe, the setting, and the comfort of the space rather than a standout cup.

Love this place. I had a cold brew and it was perfect. My wife had The Esther it blew my mind. Highly recommended for coffee.

I've had the best breakfast so far in KL. Ottoman eggs 10/10 V60 Honduras 10/10 Espresso lemonade 10/10 It gets crowded around brunch time ~ 11 am so take thin into account when visiting.
