β β β β β Beautiful location, however the cakes and drinks leave a lot to be desired. Tiramisu cake and carrot cake feels basic, chicken pie is great. For the price, i do not really recommend unless you enjoy the atmosphere.
Drinks average price - rm15
Food average price - rm20-30 ++

β β β β β Art, local crafts, wine bar, cafe, restaurant and most importantly, dessert (cake) Mecca!!! The pesto pasta we had here was unique and divine. The cake we had was amazing and unlike anything weβve ever had before.They bake 50 cakes a day, need we say more? We came here twice on a three day trip to George Town, itβs that good!!

β β β β β *Street parking here might be a bit challenging as the area has a higher uptick of traffic, so it really depends on your luck.
**It should be noted that this review is really specific to my experience as I can see that they do have things that I would likely be interested in (such as performance nights with craft beer being offered). So take this as a snapshot of my experience then only.
Ambience:
Honestly was a bit stifling. It felt like most people were just squeezed in wherever possible, and it didnβt feel like you could take your time to enjoy your meal there with how packed the place was.
Service:
Although I could see that most staff were doing their best and were friendly enough, I wasnβt a fan of how rushed the environment was. This meant that it took much longer to be seated, some staff were more short-fused than necessary, food took much longer to be brought out etc. At one point we had to cancel our drinks order as it was really taking too long to be brough out.
Food:
Although I didnβt order much, the 2 desserts I got was decent. Thereβs not much to go about it as I felt it was honestly neither good nor bad.
Price:
Reasonably priced, so again not too much to say about here.
Conclusion:
Although my experience this time wasnβt too great, but like I said there were other things that I would be interested in. I could see that other food and drinks items also had potential so if you were able to sample more it might turn out a lot better. And honestly who is to say that with less of a crowd your experience might be totally different? So if you are around do give it a try at least.

β β β β β Good and relax ambience. Can draw while eating here. Some of the cake contained alcohol.
However, the staff (guy) is impatient and call us to wait outside with loud voice as i just have one step with my left leg into the cafe and open the door by myself. The cafe at that time is not that packed actually and just have few people. The girls serving cakes are nice and friendly.
The staff (guy) then bring us to the table but the table is with ants. At first, he just swipe off the ant with his hand and call us to sit. He only willing to change the table after i claimed that there are numerous of red ants.

β β β β β They ran out of tiramisu and instead I somehow got a slice of Delicious Death Chocolate Cake. It is good but cannot somehow associate the name to how it tasted - reminiscent of a chocolate fruit cake. Quite expected a rich chocolate moist cake.
Also, the place in itself is relaxing and worth strolling around - it has a shop, a courtyard and a bar.

β β β β β Love the ambience of this placeβ‘
Suitable for small/big groups, even family with young children (the drawing supplies should keep the kids busy for a while?)
Food wise, alcoholic tiramisu and chocolate cake is fantastic! I ordered mint and lime juice to tone down sweetness of the cake, will go back next time to try out other desserts ?

β β β β β Ambient is great. Location is good. Like most downtown cafe places , parking is a nightmare. So best to take a Grab there.
Cake is excellent. Coffee is great. Cocktail is good too. Nothing is bad here.
Unfortunately, we met with a rude waiter that ignored our "excuse me" call(walked past our table) when we wanted to order more food. He showed us the " I am not serving you" face. Luckily another staff nearby saw us and hurried to answer our call. Not sure why the behaviour, hopefully this can be addressed.
The two female staffs were ever ready to serve with a big smile. Overall, service is good if we disregard the one rotten apple.
Price is Melbourne level but the value is there.
Toilets r rudimentary with "juicy" murals. It is clean.
Lighting and ventilation r good.
Highly recommended.
