    Nebula Cafe is a gem nestled in Jongker Street Riverside, and I couldn't be more delighted to share my exceptional experience! The ambiance, especially at night, is truly magical, offering a fantastic view that elevates the dining experience. The food at Nebula Cafe is a culinary delight! The portions are generous, perfect for sharing with friends or for those with smaller appetites. A special shoutout to the Fish and Chipsβ€”it's an absolute must-try, and I can see why it came highly recommended by a foreign friend. The Pizza is another winner with its thin crust and crispy edges, hitting all the right notes. What impressed me even more was the diverse menu. Being a local, I was introduced to Nebula Cafe through the enthusiastic recommendation of a foreign friend, and I'm grateful for the tip! The Mushroom Soup was a flavor explosion, and the extensive burger choices provide something for everyone. In summary, Nebula Cafe has won my heart with its fantastic view, delectable dishes, and welcoming atmosphere. Whether you're a local or a visitor, this spot is a definite go-to. Highly recommended!

    Just returned to Melaka from Australia. Nebula has moved to a new location by the river, it's even better than before. Food menu, quality and coffee are excellent. They even have wine 🍷and a Happy Hour. Cheers. Will definitely be back.

    A wonderful place to have lunch and drinks at night by the Melaka river.. It's hot during the day if you sit outside. Have a good chat with the shop owners and have the privilege to try out their pre-launch menu. Here is my review. #Chicken japanese curry, the chicken is crispy on the outside and soft inside. #Egg Benedict Thingy sauce taste is appetizing. #Prawn and Chicken fajitas taste awesome. End the brunch with Americano. Conclusion satisfied meal.

    Great taste, very good service, and wonderful location right by the river. Price was fair. We tried steak 280 g with sides of mashed potatoes & fries/ roasted vegetables (price: 87 RM). Non alcoholic drinks ranged from 11-15 RM. It's a great halal option in Malaka. Recommend it.

    It's a nice restaurant by the riverside. It has seating facilities both inside and outside next to the riverside. Service is excellent, with great hospitality. The food is wonderful with a variety of burgers, pizzas, pasta, and grilled items. They have a pretty good choice of various liquors and cocktails to go with your food. The unique thing is that they can customise the pastas to vegetarian if requested by the customer. Pls note a couple of things when you go there. 1. Food portions are big. Unless you are a champ of an eater, have some with you to share the meal. 2. Parking is a major issue. You might have to park a little away and walk to the place. Even better if you could either carpool or take the hired cab via app. Currently, the entry is only through the riverside, even though the maps will take you to the roadside entrance. Payment can be made by cash, card, or QR mode.

    Excellent burger cafe! Definitely exceeds expectations! Tried both the Hawaiian and Mac & cheese burger which were superbly cooked and well seasoned! Mushroom soup was also fought over by the kids! Two thumbs up!!!

    Nice little cafe off Jonker. Very spacious interior for Malacca's standards so you can relax and enjoy the food instead of rushing through your meals. Food is good, with big portions. Service is friendly and excellent

    Helpful and friendly staff, serving delicious food. I do not normally choose to eat burgers, but I was told how there are made on site, so I gave it a go. It was great! No regrets at all. I wish all the best to Nebula Cafe as they continue their new F&B journey.

    Very nice find! We had breakfast there and the food was incredibly good. The place is big, clean and welcoming. The prices are not cheap but not expensive either, they are rather reasonable given the big portions. Special mention for the friendly staff and for our waiter, Ashi, that was very helpful. Definitely recommend this place! :)

    Had the most enchanting experience at Nebula, perfectly positioned to offer a serene view over the river. The iced coffee my wife and I shared was absolutely top-notch, providing the refreshing jolt we needed. A special shoutout to our server, Ibrahim, who was the epitome of hospitality. He engaged warmly with all guests, sharing laughs and weaving tales about the rich history of Melacca. His invaluable advice enriched our stay in the area. A must-visit spot for anyone in Melacca!

    Well well, here come some reviews for food, environment and service. 1. Pepperoni Pizza - taste good but the side of the bread little bit too thick for thin crust. Also the taste of the dough bit plain. Can be improve. 2. Smokey BBQ Chicken - no comment on the chicken as it taste good. As for the side, the mash potatoes served in plain. Try to put with mash potatoes sauce it will be nice. 3. Hawaiian Burger - nice in plating but the meat little dried and little bit overcooked. So far the taste are ok. 4. Carbonara - nothing much to comment on this. Taste, not bad. 5. Drink - smoothies mix berry, perhaps little bit wrong concept of it. It should be blend smoothies with some real berries as dressing. Existing it looks more like plain yogurt blended with some berries. Environment - they just moved over to this new place so nothing much can comment on this but it has nice view on river side. If owner can make some space especially outdoor, it would be nice because it wouldn’t be so cramp and hot. Also for the plain water served free as standard dine in, it can be removed from the drink menu. Customer would be misunderstanding to order plain water for 50 sen. Serving plain water wouldn’t cost must for those who dine in. Service - this I would give 5 star rating. The serve and service perfectly and friendly. * I get treated with mango with nuetella waffle, on the house. πŸ˜›

    Delicious and fresh fish and chips with yummy tartar sauce. Portion was generous. One of the best we've had in a while. Mushroom soup could have more mushroom bits but overall taste was still satisfying. The tasty garlic bread that came with it had a good crunch and was a great appetiser. Service team was excellent, friendly and attentive. View of the river was lovely. Would come again. This place thrives with good vibes as they serve food with heart.

    I ordered Fish & Chips cause I find hard to get a decent Fish & Chips in other place at Melaka. But Nebula Fish & Chips is nicely done, batter still crunchy through out the meal, the fish is fresh you can taste is not old, portions is big for me. I give extra points for the tartar sauce.Another thing I will recommend is Mac and cheese very cheesy. The environment is cozy facing the river and friendly staff.

    The pizza was great. It has a typical curry taste with cheese, and vegetable toppings. Different but unique taste. If you are from India, try vegetarian pizza here.

    EXCELLENT service & dining experience. Shout-out to the waiters & the service crew. I had asked if I could use a charger (they have lots of charging ports inside the resto/bar) & they lent me one with no hesitation. Food was very palatable & ordered the chicken chop, carbonara (100% recommended) as well as the hot buffalo wings. Our mains were so good we didn't even take a photo of it haha. Dining experience was nice, a very cozy space and if you're seated outside, you could enjoy the river view, esp when it lit up at night! Made an excellent choice for this gem of a place we found while on the river cruise! THANK YOU TO THE TEAM AT NEBULA!

    Nice service and excellent food, mostly western food. We had the cream a carbonara fettuccine, Buffalo burger and roasted chicken with honey-soya sauce. Inside a little more decoration would be nice.

    The food was great! I had the banana milkshake and paired it with the egg benedict. The fresh banana taste balance well with the egg benedict. The staff is very friendly and helpful. The atmosphere is very relaxing, suitable for winding down after a good walk and shopping spree! Definitely recommended!

    Just stopped off in here for some breakfast before exploring the city. Both the food and coffee was absolutely delicious! Great spot if you are looking for a more western style breakfast.

    Service was lovely, it’s a fresh and clean environment, I had a berry smoothie that was berries and yoghurt served ice cold which was very refreshing. I had avocado toast with poached eggs and I feel satisfied and full now :-) I’ve had a pleasant time at the nebula cafe.

    Best food tasted after a week spent in Melaka. Burger wins again (Mac & Cheese). Very tasty and gigantic. Highly recommend and the food and drink menus are large with lots of great options. Riverfront location and view is very nice.
