This coffee shop is incredibly cozy and quiet. The staff was incredibly friendly. We ordered coconut coffee, which was delicious, but it was way too much ice, it was gone after a few sips. We also had mango sticky rice, which was absolutely perfect. The ripe and soft mango was perfectly paired with the sticky rice and warm coconut milk on top. It was heavenly, but it took almost 20 minutes to make it. Well, it was worth the wait.
We quite enjoyed our visit to The Caffine Cartel. Nice well run little cafe. The beer was ice cold and the tomyum was delicious. We felt very welcome in the relaxed and friendly atmosphere. Look forward to trying the coffee earlier in the day next visit.

Khob kun kap Cherry for your kind words and we look forward to seeing you again soon! 🙏🏼
We was looking for our daily coffee and stumbled across this coffee shop which turned out to be the best coffee we had in Malaysia. We hat the Thai milk tea and a coffee with condensed milk both were absolutely delicious! Super friendly staff and very nice atmosphere. Highly recommend!

Thank you so much Emily for your kind, kind words and we are so glad that you enjoyed the experience 🙏🏼 we hope to see you again! 🫶🏼
Full disclosure: the owner said the thai milk tea and the coconut coffee were their signature but we ordered the milk white coffee instead. So this review is not fair towards their signature drinks.
Good:
- the owner is friendly and holds good conversations
- the decor is nice
Can be better:
- the layout of the shop (or building unit) is quite cramped and not suitable for baby strollers or wheelchairs
- maybe it was a screw up on the ice suppliers end but they did not have ice on that day, which didnt help because it was a really hot day
- the milk coffee was alright but can definitely find better milk coffee elsewhere

Thank you for visiting us and we are so sorry that you weren’t satisfied with your experience - there’s not much we can do about the size of our place and unfortunately we also can’t control when the ice delivery comes a little bit late 😢 but we can see some ice in your cup 😅 we would like to apologise again and hope you will visit us again 🙏🏼
If I could give more than 5 stars, I would!
Celebrated our 20th anniversary here last night and had the most amazing experience. Owner Ben and Andrew surprised us in the most delightful way—it was so thoughtful and truly made our celebration feel unique.
The food was also absolutely amazing; From the first bite to the last, it was a flavor explosion and beautifully presented…thanks so much to the pretty Thai Chef Mei !
We will definitely be back! Thank you for a wonderful night!

初めて訪問しましたが、食事もサービスも大変満足しました。タイ料理のテースティングメニューのコースのみですが、ボリュームは十分です。入り口は分かりづらいものの、隠れ家的なプライベートダイニングを満喫できました。今度、下のカフェにも来てみたいと思います。

Randomly walked by this nice little coffee shop. The coconut milk coffee and the Thai milk tea were both great. The service was super friendly and warm.
Would highly recommend this place if you have never been.
