We are not giving this one a Vie Score: only 2 people have posted about it for this dish, and we do not score anything under 3. It is on the list because what we did find is worth knowing.

Why it is our number one: We recommend this for those seeking a modern industrial aesthetic paired with more substantial meals than your average coffee shop. It is a standout choice for those who want their caffeine with a side of Japanese fusion.

NEW industrial-vibe cafe spotted in Bangsar that serves Japanese fusion dishes!

We are not giving this one a Vie Score: only 1 person has posted about it for this dish, and we do not score anything under 3. It is on the list because what we did find is worth knowing.

Why it made the list: We suggest this for a heavy breakfast that holds its own against the caffeine. While coffee is on the menu, the chicken waffles are the actual reason to make the trip.

Have to bring chicken waffle to Germany 😮‍💨

Popular in Bangsar, but not for coffee

People post about these places plenty. What they post about is not coffee, so they are not ranked above, and we would rather say that than pad the list.

How we rank

1Every place, then only the right onesEverywhere serving coffee in Bangsar proper. Anything in a neighbouring area filed under the same name is dropped.
2We read what people posted4 posts on TikTok, including what is said out loud in the videos and what the comments say underneath.
