Awesome place

Great staff, good prices, and many options (mostly Western). The only downside is it serves breakfast but doesn’t open until 10am

Delicious food

Absolutely delicious vegan food, upset that we will not have time to visit again, the mushroom rendang croissant was spot on. My sons had the breakfast bagel and I’ve no idea how they make their vegan eggs but it was highly impressive. Great range of juices and the restaurant/cafe itself was beautiful. Waiting staff very attentive and friendly.

Thank you!

I'm so glad that this restaurant exist! After some weeks in Malaysia without vegan restaurants and a vegan mindset are we finally back in KL and have a whole vegan menu what makes me so happy!
The restaurant is also very pretty with very friendly staff. Yes, it's definitely more expensive but the food tastes very good and it's worth it.
We had the pancakes (a dream) and the avocado bread (not that much avocado, but tasty) and carrot cake Berry chocolate cake.
The berry cake was a little bit to sweet for me though.
The only thing is that it isn't the fastest service.

One of the best restaurants I’ve tried

After a year, I’m still thinking about this place. You must go try the croissants there. So flaky and light. It’s a top restaurant for me, and I’ve been traveling vegan for years. Those croissants!!!!

Tasty Gem in the Centre of KL

Lovely Cafe / Bar / Bakery near ChinaTown
Friendly waitstaff who are happy to give recommendations (pure vegan menus always stump me)
Separate All Day Breakfast & Evening Menus

Holy vegan paradise, Batman!

This place is worth the price and then some.
We had the full breakfast. It was not cheap, but it was amazingly tasty.
Ian, our server, was super professional, friendly, and helpful.
We will clearly be back there as they have many different options, and everything looked incredible.
Don't sleep on this one while in KL.

Pros: Breakfast is wholesome and awesome, Pastries, cakes, ice cream... it's all vegan, Very friendly staff and good vibes

insanely good vegan pastries

i’d go back just for the croissants 🤤 absolutely a must-try. also had the carbonara and the no-egg-no-bacon pie (was not really a pie; more like a sandwich) which were really good too!
one con — had a bagel which was quite tough to bite into. would avoid the jaw workout next time 😅

Top 3 best vegan burgers I've ever had

One of the best and most flavoursome vegan burgers I've ever had. Massive. Shoe string fries which came with it let it down a bit though. extremely oily and hard to eat. Easily solved if they just cut them a bit thicker. Good coffee as well. Note they don't have the burger on the dinner menu unfortunately. Dinner menu is nowhere near as good as lunch menu. Still tasty though , just not much protein, and the portion I got at least was pretty small. I still have to give it a 5 though, as the burger was so off the hook.

Pros: Great flavour , Insane burger , Good coffee

Cons: Shoes string fries to oily, better thicker cut, Limited protein on dinner menu

Favourite restaurant in KL!

This became our favourite restaurant in KL, probably even the whole region. The food, pastries and drinks are incredible. They have the best vegan croissants in the world, so good it actually makes you angry that every croissant isn’t as good as this one. Anything you order on this menu will be packed full of flavour and you’ll love it.

Great food, cakes and pastry

Definitely on the expensive side for KL and Malaysia but the food is really good, there is always a wide selection of cakes and the staff has been lovely every time - it kept me going back!

Pros: Number of options, Great staff, Leftover pastries are 3x2 at night

Fancy atmosphere, food food

Kind of a fancy restaurant. Got assigned a floor table when walking in. If you want to sit on chairs, maybe make a reservation.

Food was good, maybe a bit too expensive

A Malaysian Must

This place is equal measures class, cool and bloody brilliant. The quirky yet inviting interior/layout sets the tone straightaway and, with the food, it just keeps delivering. The sausage roll, while no Greggs, was a great appetiser for things to come. The shoestring fries were crispy, la gula whopper sliders were incredible little morsels with a real eggy, cheesy goodness to them, see-food platter was superb, the carbonna was creamy and unctuous, and the tahini & maple salad gave a wonderful fresh respite from everything else.
Then we have the desserts. Oh my word. I could easily spent the rest of my afternoon mining my way through everything on offer, but I (somehow) managed to restrict myself to ‘just’ a scones, a cinnamon roll and a biscoff croissant…and a scoop of vanilla ice cream. When I say these pastries were good, I mean good. The pick of the bunch was definitely the biscoff croissant, which is no slight on the others, but this was easily the best croissant I’ve ever had, it was ridiculous.
If you’re in KL, or perhaps just Malaysia in general or a neighbouring country, I implore you make your way here.

Great spot of plant based lunch

Popped in for a quick bite after enjoying the food in its sister place down the road a few nights before. Really nice staff, funky vibe and the food was great. Gem had the bagel with vegan fried egg and I had the sourdough with plant based pastrami and cheese. Really nice, wil definitely be coming back 👍
