Taste of the drink and dessert are absolutely top tier, the owners probably use high quality ingredients so the price is a bit higher than usual cafés but I feel that it's worth it Definitely recommending dining in as the ambience here is so so cozy

The atmosphere there is really nice!! There is a cute fountain in the middle of the cafe, and the whole ambience is suitable for a chit-chatting session with friends. I had their matcha coconut latte, it was actually good! The matcha is on a slightly bitter side, with very fragrant matcha scent, not the sweet kind of matcha latte but the taste is very balanced, with sparkles of surprises as you bite into the coconut flakes. The strawberry cake is just a usual piece of cake, but not too sweet and not very burdenful. It was light, moist and fluffy, with layers of fresh strawberries in between. The latte was RM17, and the cake was RM20, no tax, slightly on the pricey end but considering its location at the heart of Kimberley Street, I think it is considered reasonable!

Thank u, i will b back v soon, esp for kopi.

Loved their drinks & appreciate the different types of cups n glass they used to serve their drinks. Service is also good as they automatically recommend their different flavours of cakes without u asking. Comfortable place to chill during the hot afternoon.
