April 28th, 2025
The Forum, spearheaded by the folks behind The Signature's Proof Cafe, is bound to become a big Instagram hit in the weeks ahead.
There's time & space for both work & play at Sudo Brew, where deadline-besieged customers can pore over their spreadsheets while a tireless team of baristas pours them all the cups of cappuccino it takes to get the job done.
Here are 8 places to check out in KL and Selangor for the perfect brew.
Gula Cakery is a family effort in the fullest sense: High-profile baker Arieni Ritzal creates the seductive cakes that beckon customers, her brother Adrien designed the cafe & their parents prepare hot meals for lunch & dinner.
The Hub hopes to become a focal point for caffeine devotees in OUG.
This roaster-&-coffee-bar, helmed by the nice folks behind the Mollydooker's cafes, can be tricky to locate, secluded in an industrial building, but it provides a pleasant reprieve for patrons pining for a crowd-free hangout.
Over in an obscure shop-row in Mutiara Damansara, roaster-barista Hadi recently fulfilled his long-gestating vision of launching a venue where he can interact with coffee enthusiasts & conduct cupping sessions in a 'tasting lab' setting.
A secret sanctuary for sweets - Sugar & Butter is run by Anne & Zulfa, a married couple who offer an array of interesting cakes & other indulgences.
A new venue by the New Zealanders behind KL's Antipodean cafes, Delirium is certain to attract an outpouring of attention in the months ahead.
Fury Cafe is another of Subang's indie hangouts, located beside the Riders Garage bikers' store, folded under the Art Of Speed brand.
Le Lumineux is a new venue where positive vibes & pork recipes take centre-stage.
Ode to Art Cafe at Subang Jaya is a creative community space that has cultivated a reputation as a soul-soothing sanctuary on Subang's crowded streets.
Polecats is a fun family-run hangout by founders Sam and Zee, with a deeply personal touch.
