Artisan Coffee, Bangsar Village II, Kuala Lumpur

Having got whiff of a new coffee place in Bangsar Village II, we decided to have our daily intake of caffeine there one afternoon.


From afar, we saw a blackboard with interesting scribbles on it that captured our interest. Upon closer inspection, we could see options patrons can choose from, depending on whether they prefer coffee, tea, chocolate, more / less milk, black, etc.


Mien and Kav both had Mocha.


Mien: The thing about Artisan is that their coffees are hand crafted and there is no standardised recipe unlike other coffee houses. Hence, each time you order a drink, it will turn out differently. However, the drinks always taste good and I love the strong coffee taste.

Kav: Loved the ‘kow-ness’ of the coffee and it was a perfect blend as all flavours complimented each other.

Gaj and Shiv had Piccolo.


Gaj: I enjoyed the Piccolo, tasted a lot like cappuccino.

Shiv: Very ‘kow’, just the way I like it. However, would like it if they gave a bigger portion.

We also decided to try the Grasshopper cake.


Mien: OMG! Colgate! I love mint chocolate, but this is just Colgate. Yucks!

Kav: Tasted like chocolate toothpaste. Repulsive!

Gaj: There was a minty taste which was BAD! DISLIKE!

Shiv: The mint used in the chocolate tasted like the Wrigley’s green chewing gum.

Verdict : WOK ON!

PRICE: Price-y. Expect the same prices as Starbucks but smaller portions.

AMBIENCE: Cosy, relaxed and chilled.

SERVICE: The waiters were very friendly and helpful in providing suggestions.

FOOD: The coffee is good; don’t expect consistency in their recipes though. We will go back to try other cakes and simply to give it another shot.
