I was attracted by the name of the restaurant and outlook. I was adamant that this is good. However it was kinda disappointing to say the least. First impression looking at the menu was i'm probably in for a disappointment, but still gave it a go, was hoping to be delighted even though the menu was from 1970s
we (2 pax) ordered:
1) Mushroom Soup (2/10)
the mushroom soup was really really bland. hardly any mushroom taste at all. it's just like drinking water. the croutons served with the soup was soggy and soft.
2) Caramalized Apple salad (1/10)
Caramalized apple salad was too much in terms of taste. It came with a 'gula melaka' salad dressing which i thought was interesting. It came drenched with this dressing. Needless to say, it was extremely sweet with the gula melaka. Knowing the dressing being such over powering taste, i'd probably drizzle just a little tiny bit to the salad (and balance it with vinaigrette), but nope, the salad was literally drenched with this ultra sweet dressing, which makes it unbearable to eat. 1 spoonful each, and we couldn't continue.
3) Garlic Bread (2/10)
garlic bread served was nothing like the photo in the menu. On top of garlic, it is also made with melted cheese, which was a little too strong for my partner. and the bread was HUGE! and 3 whole slices were served as a portion. We ended up eating just 1 slice.
4) Seafood Curry pasta (1/10)
When one mention 'Seafood' in the menu, one would expect a variety of seafood to be served. Nope, this pasta came with 4 meager size clamp (lala) and 2 medium size prawns (not exactly fresh). That's all. no fish slice, no mussels, no squid. To me, this doesn't qualified as being called Seafood Pasta. And again, somehow, the chef managed to make the curry super sweet, which i totally did not get. Doesn't exactly taste like curry bcos of the sweetness. huge disappointment with this dish.
5) Guiness ribs (1/10)
It's described as "6 hours sous vide Guiness Ribs" which is very eye catching. This is probably the biggest disappointment of the whole lot. The meat was dried, tough, and really really bland. It is fork tender, but all moistures or juices has been cooked out, it is extremely dry, with no texture whatsoever left. The supposedly 6 hours cooking did nothing more than total damage to the meat. U can tell that this ribs was probably cooked a week ago. and just like the other dishes, the guiness sauce is very sweet. apart from sweetness, u really can't taste anything else.
lastly, even the drinks (black coffee & flower tea) was a disappointment...
the only plus point (why i didn't give it 1-star) was the staff was ok friendly (there's only 1 staff who takes care of seatings, ordering, drinks, server and cashier)
Overall, i'm sorry to say, i will not consider visiting this ever again. It was a huge disappointment.

Went at around 3pm and the restaurant was quiet. Waitress was very friendly and happy to serve. The homemade pork burger’s patty was really juicy and tender, and the buns were soft. It came with a generous amount of fries and coleslaw. Would love to revisit and try other things on the menu!

I ordered fish & chips and rosemary chicken chop. The fish & chips are obviously over-fried and chicken chop isn’t taste fresh, even the side dish (mashed potato) is cold. Although the food portion is quite generous but the food quality is a big no no.

Delicious! Probably the best cafe in Butterworth.
Staffs are friendly and the ambient is cozy with relaxing music playing on the background.
Definitely order their green tea waffle!! Tasted so good and the food presentation is awesome, cost only RM10.90 🥰 worth every penny spent
Celebrate early Christmas here. Cozy environment and gd service. Food is ok but may still need some improvement. this is own taste and comment. I ordered Pork Chop, just nice for me. Pork Burger's taste is not bad but just a bit dry, one bite with one spoon water. Oven Roasted Chicken source too watering and much. it a bit spoilt the roasted taste.. Overall still acceptable.
Service and ambience was good , food abit dissatisfied.
I ordered homemade pork burger, patty was nice but burger bun was too hard , difficult to cut and hard bite . It will be better if serve wit soft bun , French fries serve with big portion.
pre book & pre order for birthday celebration, but still taking 1 hour to complete all order. super slow service. pork burger n carbonara still ok, rosemary chicken & pork ribs not nice. disappointed.

Had a great dinner here! Came with 4 others and all their meals were fantastic too (I sampled just to make sure ;-) )
Absolutely get the fried risotto ball appetizer (or two! Sharing is hard when something is so tasty...)
The Chorizo dishes were particularly delicious, as was my Spaghetti Bolognese.
Definitely recommend!
Arrive 1230 lunch time and we are the first customer , waited almost an hour to get the foods serve. Imaging the whole restaurant only run by two people, and the foods to customer is not first come first serve.
