The soufflés and waffles draw repeat visits, and the space stays clean with transparent wait times listed upfront. However, noise levels spike dramatically when busy, making conversation difficult, and several recent visits mention staff responding dismissively to order mix-ups rather than simply apologizing. Waits stretch beyond the stated 30 minutes, particularly for soufflés.
Recent shift: Service attitude has become a friction point in the past month, with multiple recent reviews citing staff dismissing order confusion rather than apologizing. This marks a shift from earlier praise of the venue itself.
A calm refuge for readers and remote workers, this Tzu Chi-run cafe trades loud ambiance for quiet contemplation and reasonably priced specialty drinks. Staff refill water without asking and hand-make ice cubes from tea. WiFi exists but is weak; food is not served, only beverages.
Most visits feel like stepping into a dog lover's living room: pets roam freely indoors, staff treat both animals and owners with genuine warmth, and the cafe stays spotless despite the fur and activity. Food and coffee land solidly above average, portions are generous, and the community of pet owners makes repeat visits feel natural. That said, expect occasional kitchen mishaps and menu limits. One diner got raw chicken; another found a nasi lemak lacking substance. Air quality comes up rarely but matters if pet dander bothers you. Cash only, so bring notes if you're card-dependent.
Strong coffee and tea selection at prices well under typical cafe chains keeps customers returning, though service tone varies sharply by shift and staff member. The space feels polished with good WiFi and power sockets, but toilets are cramped, and busy lunch periods sometimes push staff to bark app-ordering instructions rather than greet customers warmly.
