Yuè Coffee Bar, retro cafe in Cheras
While modernity is a sign of progression and growth, we do appreciate the good old nostalgia of the olden days every now and then. And that is what Yuè Coffee Bar aims to do. Nestled in a Cheras neighbourhood, this cafe will transport you back in time with their bucolic ambiance and retro decor.
Authentic wooden kampung house-turned-cafe
Yuè Coffee Bar brings back memories of balik kampung during Chinese New Year as it is set in an authentic wooden kampung house. With their unique yet familiar ambience, you get to experience modern coffee and pastries in a yesteryear setting without even needing to travel away from the city.

They also double as a mini library with stacks and shelves of old-school books perfect for diners to browse while they are here and to while a lazy weekend afternoon away.

Serves affordable drinks, pastries, and craft beers
Yuè Coffee Bar may have a traditional setting but their gastronomical offerings are as modern as they can get. Their menu comprises the customary cafe assortment of light bites, coffee, juices, tea, and pastries at reasonable prices.

Those with a sweet tooth will definitely want to check out their cake menu. As they bake their goods fresh every day, the menu isn’t fixed. But you can expect to see their Lemon Poppyseed Loaf, Key Lime Cheese Tart, Japanese Strawberry Yogurt Cheesecake, and Matcha Burnt Cheesecake (all around RM15/slice) making frequent appearances.
