What do recent reviews say?

Recent visits split sharply: some customers rave about genuine specialty coffee at prices under RM20, app efficiency, and occasional staff warmth. Others report long waits, dismissive baristas, dropped orders without apology, and orders marked ready that aren't. Training consistency appears to be the pinch point, with better outcomes at busier times or certain locations.

Praised for
  • affordable pricing with quality coffee
  • friendly and well-trained staff at best
  • fast app-based ordering system
  • speciality coffee credentials
Watch-outs
  • inconsistent staff attitude and service quality
  • app order readiness notifications inaccurate

San Francisco Coffee - The Horizon

3.7(24)✓ Google-verified

San Francisco Coffee keeps loyal customers coming back for consistently friendly staff and clean surroundings, especially during busy periods. However, recent complaints about barista training (overheated drinks affecting flavour) and surprise charges for modifications suggest gaps in consistency.

Botanica+Co at Bangsar South

4.0(3238)✓ Google-verified

Botanica+Co draws praise for its verdant setting and staff attentiveness, especially for milestone celebrations. Couples hosting weddings and corporate teams consistently highlight responsive coordinators like Lisa and Fahad. The kitchen delivers standout plating and generous helpings, though recent diners note the premium price sometimes outpaces the taste. Recent feedback underscores a split: event bookings run smoothly with strong hospitality, but one-off dining feels uneven. A poorly executed chicken roulade arrived barely warm, while a wagyu burger and set lunches earned solid marks. Complaints centre on value alignment, not service lapses, aside from one rushed private-suite birthday experience that staff have since addressed.
