Aud's Cafe

4.6(615)✓ Google-verified

Staff prepare sandwiches, smoothies, and breakfast platters with care; coffee rivals Australian standards and portions are generous. The rustic converted-barber-shop setting appeals to regulars and passers-by alike, though finding the spot and lack of facilities are minor friction points. Pulled pork sandwich and avocado smoothies are standouts. Prices undercut similar cafes nearby. The owner-operated vibe resonates with those seeking an Ipoh Old Town refuge that bridges Western brunch and local comfort bowls.

Patisserie Boutique

4.1(554)✓ Google-verified

Patisserie Boutique delivers excellent pastries and desserts in a charming, heritage-shophouse setting that draws regulars for birthdays and special occasions. Service and consistency divide opinion sharply: some staff show genuine warmth and care, while others have been curt or dismissive, and kitchen speed varies wildly from acceptable to 40-minute waits on quiet days.

Food quality and portion size dominate reviews, with customers consistently reporting tasty dishes that keep them returning. Staff friendliness, view appeal, and value-for-money stand out, though some note the air conditioning struggles with heat and wish for more vegetarian choices.
