#3 Wizards

Star2.com

One of the most raved cafes in KL recently, Wizards might sound like it was named after Harry Potter’s fan, but no. Enter into a “cafe” of aesthetic and poise with matching colors of decor. The cage-lantern like decor hanging from the ceiling softens the light and added pattern. Even the plating is Instagrammable, no?

#4 The Owls Cafe at One Space

Cr: @00feng

Not any pet cafes in KL, The Owls Cafe at One Space is the sister of New Chapter by The Owls. Nothing related to owls or pets except the cute, soft logo at the entrance, this place speaks serenity. High ceiling with huge glass window allowing ample sunlight gazing through, with marble and soft yellow tones, perfect. We heard their waffles are to die for.

#5 Lim Kee Cafe

Cr: @rey.winter.stuff

An old-school cafes in KL with contemporary furnishing and pleasant color pantone. Lim Kee Cafe resembles Hong Kong coffee shops, and no it’s not a chicken rice shop judging by the name.

Cr: @alextayz

While eating hall might sound like an informal place, we mind you that Lucky Peaches is a bit more upmarket than it sounds.

Cr: @zer0________

A shop lot turned cafe in Chinatown, we have an indescribable affair with Jao Tim, which translates to “hotel” in Cantonese. A cafe, an art gallery, jam sessions, event space, whatever it is, Jao Tim scores it. Brick walls, high ceilings and spacious hall, it kind of gave us an old London vibe.
