Good, and well liked locally

63/100

Why it is our number one: This is the definitive choice for those who want an industrial backdrop with their Japanese fusion brunch. It is a composed escape from the more chaotic street corners of the neighborhood.

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

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 made the list: This is a destination for a heavy, satisfying brunch that does not compromise on the quality of the brew. It is built for long weekend catch ups where the chicken waffles are considered mandatory.

Have to bring chicken waffle to Germany

Lisette's Café & Bakery @ Bangsar Not scored yet

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 made the list: We recommend this for a slower, more aesthetic morning where the smell of fresh brew and baked goods sets the tone. It is a calm corner designed for those who want to avoid the more frantic parts of Bangsar.

Bangsar’s not just about the crowded cafés everyone goes to.

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 made the list: Go here if you need to get work done in a space that feels professional yet welcoming. The polarising drink menu makes it a mandatory stop for anyone bored of the standard caffeine options.

Where people do not agree: the Honey Lemonade Coffee is a unique flavor profile that people either hate or love intensely

Honey Lemonade Coffee, the only drink we have here where you either hate it with all your heart or you love it to the bottom of your heart

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 value this spot for its commitment to the night owls and community needs during late hours. It is a reliable beacon for caffeine when the rest of the neighborhood has gone to sleep.

Where people do not agree: other cafes in the area often close early

luckily this cafe extends their operation time for ramadhan!

Where this came from

We hold no post we can quote line by line for this place yet. It is ranked on the weight and freshness of what we found, not on anything we can show you here, and that is a weaker footing than the places above with a list.

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 posted11 posts on TikTok and YouTube, including what is said out loud in the videos and what the comments say underneath.
3Ranked on that, not on starsOur judgement decides what each place is for. The Vie Score is built only from what people who ate there said.

Researched and written by the Vie food desk. Assembled by our own research pipeline from public posts, every one of them named and linked above, and published under Vie's editorial judgement. No placement in this guide was paid for.

Google stars are not part of it, on purpose: everyone already has those. Too thin to judge means no score at all, which is why 1 of 6 places here carry one. Nothing in this guide is paid for.
