Best for
Coffee enthusiasts seeking quality single-origin espresso drinks in a polished setting.

Core details are sourced from this business's Google Business Profile (checked 2026-09-29).

What do recent reviews say?

Specialty roasted coffee draws regulars; cortados and long blacks earn repeated visits. But kitchen and floor service are split: pastries like tiramisu cake impress, yet frozen strudel and sandwich delays frustrate, and staff impatience at the outdoor counter has soured first visits.

The KLCC branch's smaller footprint creates bottlenecks during busy service. Seating is tight, menu items vanish without notice, and cashier attention drifts when queues build. Quality swings between inspired drinks and oddly off pastries, leaving the experience unpredictable.

Praised for
  • specialty coffee expertise
  • adventurous pastries and desserts
  • sophisticated atmosphere
  • courteous counter service
Watch-outs
  • inconsistent food quality and execution
  • staff rudeness at peak times and outdoor counter

Most visits deliver rich, well-balanced chocolate desserts in a cozy space where staff know how to welcome regulars and first-timers alike. The recent redesign drew praise, and staff like Apple and Ahze have earned specific mention for attentiveness. A handful of recent guests found brownie taste or texture hit-or-miss, and one waiter lapse disappointed, but these are outliers in an otherwise strong pattern. Quality chocolate shows through in every type: crepes, waffles, pancakes, and the signature sizzling brownie attract repeats. Prices remain reasonable for the portion size and plating care. The shop works equally well for a solo work session or a friend hangout, with enough calm to make both feel natural.
