Although a little expensive by Penang standards, the staff were most helpful and allowed us to mix the set menu with a la carte which was to our advantage. Pleasant surroundings and good food - well worth considering.

Nice stylish place- a bit more expensive than the usual restaurants in Penang but definitely worth it. They only have a few meals (around 15) n the menu, but the Nasi Goreng I tried was definitely the best rice meal I ate during our three weeks in Malaysia.

Food is great, enjoyed their fish and chips, the service is quite slow. The food is expensive but worth it.

Mews Cafe is a nice little spot with indoor and outdoor seating. Small but interesting menu of western and local items, very cold beer and excellent coffee. A nice break from the busy and hot business of expploring Penang. Its not cheap compared to the hawker stalls but its not too expensive. treat yourself, cool down, and carry on exploring... More

A special find! Small, quiet cafe with great staff. Very relaxing setting for any meal or a tea/coffee break. Definitely up to date considered the surroundings and is perfect if your exploring the area by foot and need to stop for a bit. I think they actually have a restroom for customer use? (Which is hard to find in Penang...especially... More

The cafe has both indoor and outdoor seating though as noted in a prior review, the indoor seating is a bit limited. The outdoor seating has plenty of shade and they had fans out for air circulation. I was there in late morning and the temperature was pleasant. The cafe has a set menu with both western an local items... More

There aren't many tables inside in the air conditioning nor outside but service is good, food is good and the cost is reasonable. It can be tight inside with tables too close to each other when it's crowded. No smoking inside is a plus.

I visited Mews Cafe twice during my visit to Georgetown in January, once for a pre-dinner cocktail and the second time, also for a cocktail and a light meal. Both visits were very pleasant -- the cocktails were great, the service excellent and the atmosphere perfect.
