    5 stars for the vibes!!! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ The owners are really friendly. This place is quite small but it feels intimate and the internet connection running fast. It has vintage vibes and the playlist is top-notch 🤌🫶 I found myself sang along also with other customers across my table hahahaha Their speciality is the pancakes. I tried: - original pancake - sinar koffee’s signature The coffee came in Xtra Large cup 😂 It tastes unique with foams on top of it and gets sweeter as you reach the bottom. Such an experience to have it unstirred. You can still enjoy the bitter taste and get a bit of a sweet if you like. I sat here working from the afternoon until they were about to close. If this place was near my home, I’d like to come often! 💛💛💛 Good luck with your business!

    This cozy cafe has left the best impressions! Friendly hosts, great breakfast food, pancakes like how my grandma used to make. Came for quick bite, ended up staying for four hours vibing with the owners! Take a break from the hustle and bustle of Georgetown, slow it down and get yourself recharged over at Sinar Koffee😁

    We had the biscoff and s’mores pancakes and they were GREAT!! very creatively made, authentic taste and ofc fluffy pancakes!! We also had their matcha frappe and lemonade, both taste amazing! The matcha frappe was not too sweet and it the way they make it did not diminish the matcha flavour or dilute it. The lemonade was actually sour! Unlike some making lemonade sweet, this one would be the epitome of lemon sourness. Overall, I’m definitely coming back here and am very satisfied with their service :)

    A cozy neighbourhood cafe that serves the best fluffy pancakes & coffee! I've been there so many times & tried almost all of their pancakes toppings & they're all my favs! Their iced flavored latte & matcha is good too! Owners are a cute couple who's very friendly. You can opt to work here too if the cafe is not full. They have plug points and wifi. Tips to find the cafe: it's tucked in a small alley opposite Transfer Rd. If you see Batek-Lah, they're right behind it in Jalan Dinding!

    Great owners.The matcha and pancakes were pretty good. Love the vibe and will definitely come back. Wish you the best!

  • 4/5 Alex H. 10 months ago on Google
    Very tasty coffee for good price. 14 ringgit for vanilla latte and 14 ringgit for rose latte. Plenty of other flavours on offer too, and the service is done with a friendly smile. We were expecting a larger cup though and not a small paper cup, despite sitting in. Overall though would absolutely come again!

  • 5/5 Aminur R. 9 months ago on Google
    An absolute gem to have found in Penang for a coffee and some pancakes. The atmosphere was cool and chilled out and the drinks and food (we had the go bananas pancake) were amazing. The highest compliment we could give was the fact our daughter ate as much as she did and she’s the fussiest eater! The greatest asset to the cafe are the owners. Absolutely wonderful people who spent a lot of time with us. This cafe has defo earned its rating and it shows when you go there. Will defo go again whilst we’re in Penang.

    Sinar is the perfect coffee stop while exploring George Town The coffee is great taste and served perfectly both hot and iced the fresh fruit juices are so delicious and refreshing. Both the toast and pancakes were so delicous the pancakes are thick and fluffy and there are many flavours to choose from, i had the fruits toppings and could tell they use great quality products as the fruits were fresh and sweet. Sinar has a great atmophere and the decor and music are a vibe! I highly reccomend anyone in Georgetown stopping by this place!

    Went for breakfast here and got the biscoff pancakes and a hash brown on the side. The food was delicious and the service was very quick. Loved the vibe of the place too, they had a good playlist playing and loved all the posters on the wall. Will definitely be back! 10/10

    Very nice place and the owner is so sweet! We were talking about the fruits we should try during our trip in Asia and she let us taste fruit of her own fridge! She is kind and the pancakes are delicious!

    Came here for brunch, I had the biscoff pancakes and added strawberries/blueberries 🍓🫐 with a hash brown on the side and an iced mokka with oat milk. Can you believe the hash brown only cost 2RM!! The atmosphere in the coffee shop was great, they even have cards and board games you can play whilst you wait for your order. Aness was amazing, super friendly and quick service. 5/5 🌟 would highly recommend! Thank you xx

    Tiny hidden gem in Penang! Serves house made pancakes, Tuna toast, coffee, Maggi, scrambled eggs on toast and more! Perfect place to just hang out with friends too. Great atmosphere and friendly bosses.

    Such a warm and relax place to sit alone and enjoy the coffee.. I try their noodles and caramel latte and it was so good.. the noodles was spicy but good and the coffee also strong and nice.. the owner was so friendly and care with you.. I can release my stress there :)

  • 5/5 Gotenks 3 months ago on Google New
    Really nice people are running this place I enjoyed the conversations we had. I loved the atmosphere especially the music and these anime figures they have. The guy I forgot to ask him for his name is making a caramel latte which looks like art! All the food I tried was really good and the price is reasonable. Can't recommend this place enough:)

  • 5/5 Sarah W. 9 months ago on Google
    My cousins and I were so lucky to have stumbled upon this place on our last day in Penang! Located strategically nearby Hutton Lane, this quaint little place served one of the best pancakes and coffee I’ve ever tasted. The owners were also super friendly and accommodating. 10/10 would definitely drop by here again next time we’re in Penang.

    Sweet little café that apparently opened just a month ago in March 23. We found it by chance and enjoyed a good hour here to cool down from the heat outside. Bring some time as meals are prepared fresh :-)
