1) Kafuka Café & Music Studio

Kafuka is located at Taman Ungku Tun Aminah, which is in Skudai. They are open every day except for Thursdays, and serve up everything from breakfast to dinner, along with drinks and coffee. It is a non-halal establishment, so you can expect dishes like Pork Patty Pancake, a filling brunch option for those who like it. It also doubles as a Music Studio, so music lovers will definitely appreciate it.

While you enjoy brunch, be sure to order a cup of coffee too, as it’s specially curated by their award-winning barista to suit Johorean taste buds.

5) Just Want Coffee, Homies

As the name suggests, you should probably round up your crew and pay this café a visit. This café has been in existence since 2014, located in Taman Molek. With “home” as the main concept behind their business, they also have a decidedly retro vibe going on. Be sure to order their coffee and bagels. They’re open daily from 12 noon until midnight.
