What recent reviews say

Most customers return specifically for the balanced, medium-roast espresso drinks and the warmth of a core group of baristas who remember regulars and tailor recommendations. The IOI Mall outlet has earned a reputation as the strongest in the HWC chain, though occasional orders miss the mark on flavour depth and a late-night housekeeping rule has caught visitors off guard.

The menu leans on milk-based specialty drinks (lattes, cappuccinos, mocha) priced RM12-16 for standard cups, with bottled versions available. Staff rotate shifts but Fatihah, Aida, and Syamimi appear most frequently praised for skill and attentiveness.

Praised for
  • consistently balanced, well-crafted coffee
  • attentive, friendly staff (Fatihah, Aida, Syamimi named repeatedly)
  • relaxing environment
  • quality worth the price
Watch-outs
  • inconsistent execution on some orders
  • restrictive trash-bin policy after 9:30 PM

NANYANG CAFE 南洋冰室 IOI Mall Puchong Branch

Nanyang Cafe draws loyal customers for its char siew and wonton noodles, but visits feel unpredictable. Some staff deliver genuine warmth and attentiveness; others leave tables unattended or pack takeaways carelessly enough to oil car seats. Food quality wavers: fried fish and char siew impress, while soups often arrive bland and noodles overcooked. At this price point (around RM 100 for three), inconsistency stings.

Swiss rolls earn genuine praise for their delicate texture and balanced sweetness, with reviewers noting the care in sourcing beans and crafting desserts. Service and coffee execution undercut the experience: staff attention lapses, temperatures fall short, and stock delays frustrate queues despite advance timing signals.
