Is this cafe good for working on a laptop?

Yes. Multiple reviewers praise it as cosy and quiet with stable seating, though one noted small cups on unstable bases can be a concern. Staff have been observed chatting loudly at times.

What coffee drinks do reviewers recommend?

Ice Americano and cappuccino are praised for less-sweet taste and good aroma. However, some reviewers describe weak coffee overall and note that specialty drinks like Premium Teh Tarik (RM9.90) do not taste premium.

Are the food portions reasonable?

No. Multiple reviewers criticize portions as too small for the price, including nasi lemak, mushroom soup with garlic bread (RM16.00), and spaghetti. One reviewer also experienced mouldy cake purchased at lunchtime.

What recent reviews say

Richiamo Coffee attracts regulars for its clean, quiet interior and decent espresso-based drinks, but struggles with uneven execution. Food arrives stale (mouldy cakes same day), undersized for the price, and staff often appear disengaged or dismissive of requests, undermining the premium positioning.

Horizon Café by Bespoke

4.5(10)✓ Verified

Horizon Café by Bespoke delivers a solid hotel-style breakfast buffet with standout nasi lemak and curry chicken that draws weekday regulars. The buffet pricing rose to RM40 recently, but reviewers confirm the spread widened: fresh fruits, cold cuts, juice options, and a pancake/waffle station now compensate for generic coffee. Staff named like Lal Miah and Sharul earn praise for attentive service even during rushes. The catch: pastries occasionally disappoint, underground parking confuses first-timers, and cleanliness varies. Halal certification makes it accessible for Muslim diners and corporate events.

Staff consistently go out of their way to make diners feel welcome, especially Ally and Lily whose attentiveness gets mentioned across reviews. The vegetarian dishes, oat milk drinks, and fresh ingredients keep people returning even if they are not vegetarian. Service crumbles during lunch rush, with wait times reaching 40 minutes to over an hour for just two customers. Some find the pricing steep for the portion, though the quality of ingredients and ability to buy organic products in-store offset this for many.
