What recent reviews say

Food arrives quickly with bold flavors and big helpings at prices under RM15 for mains; staff remember orders and chat easily. Kitchen occasionally stumbles on consistency: dry rice, broken pastries, half-filled sauces that undercut the otherwise strong execution and leave some diners feeling shortchanged on portion promise.

The baozy dumplings draw repeat visits, halal-certified ingredients appeal to a broad crowd, and a month-old business finding its rhythm shows in 86% five-star ratings against scattered complaints about backend glitches. Worth a trial if you prize taste and value over polish.

Donuts are the draw here-reviewers praise them as fresh, creamy, and not overly sweet. The outlet is clean and some visits yield quick service. However, staff friendliness is wildly inconsistent. Multiple reviewers report rude, dismissive behavior and lack of eye contact from staff at the counter. Inventory issues also frustrate: hot donuts are often sold out or staff delay making them without clear timelines. Coffee quality is hit-and-miss, and some find it underwhelming compared to specialty cafes.

Harold's @ Mydin Meru Raya

4.8(448)✓ Google-verified

Staff by name, particularly Irah and Siti, consistently deliver genuine warmth and attentiveness. Reviewers credit them for smiles, care with custom orders, and suggestions that stick. Bread, buns, and signature cakes (notably their chocolate cake) arrive fresh and well-balanced in flavour. Prices hold steady and fair for the quality. The spot has become a genuine daily habit for repeat customers seeking reliable morning staples and treats.

Recent visits split sharply: five-star reviews praise fast service, kind staff named Iera and Zety, and well-made tea drinks. However, multiple one-star reviews describe staff as rude, dismissive, and unwilling to engage with customers. One reviewer also reported a barista cutting a single espresso shot in half to serve two cups, leaving drinks watery and milky tasting.
