Popped here for lunch whilst waiting for our hotel check in to be available. Due to the size and popularity you may have to wait to be seated, but service is quick and it shouldn't be for long. The portions are excellent value for money and its handy location to places such as Jonker Street and the Baba & Nyonya Museum should make sure it goes on anyone's list of places to eat when visiting Melaka.

We came here for brunch on Sat. Delighted that we traditional didn't have to wait too long to be seated. Cosy traditional shophouse setting with beautiful air wells inside filled with plants. Very friendly staff that keeps updating us on the status of our order. Great burgers and the pork belly ones were sumptious and juicy. Great Malacca coffees too!

As a veggie, I was overjoyed when the waiter came over to tell us about the daily special which was a delicious falafel burger. Food was top notch, the drinks were healthy and tasty, the building is beautiful - covered in plants and antiques. All in all it’s rather an instagramable spot.

Full of green plants and artwork on the walls, the place feels relaxed and welcoming. The food is at a very high standard and absolutely delicious. Perfectly sized portions and good value. Well worth a visit if you're in Melaka.

Visiting Melaka post lockdown I decided to try this restaurant located off Jonker Street. Having tried many burgers around the world I was blown away by how good the burgers I tried were. Go for the lamb or pork patties. Restaurant is hard to find as hidden from the road.

Great little cafe for lunch, very quaint artistic setting. Something different from all the usual Malaysian chicken rice etc you can find in any Malaysian town. Owner has thought a lot about the offering. Western food though..

We were so lucky that I was a rainy day and there was no queue (which is really rare). The deco of this restaurant was really unique with all the antique and plants at the patios. We were full but couldn't resist the yummy food so we order pork burger and lemongrass chicken burger. The pork burger was really nice. Staffs were friendly and helpful. A must visit restaurant when u r in Jonker walk.

I am French and my wife is from Melaka and I have been totally shocked by the bad and arrogant attitude. The place is definitely not friendly towards family and kids. We were received with attitude and discouraged to enter by the owner (?) insisting on the waiting time. Initially mentioning 1h waiting time then gradually saying it would be 1h30 mins while telling us not to wait inside but outside in the street near the road … obvious choice and very wise (I am sarcastic) when waiting with 5 kids of less than 9 years old of age Such business should not be recommended at all as it seems the philosophy is pure money making …

A very cosy restaurant with kind and helpfull staff. The menu is burgers, part regular and part Asian influenced. The style of the interior is as if you are in a jungle, which contributes to the experience. The restaurant is clean, the burgers are good quality and service is fast. I will definetely come back!

I was hesitating to come to Bamboo House but boy was I wrong! The restaurant deco and wall art is amazing. Lovely Jazz background music. Lovely relaxing vibe. I had the greek burger and my husband had the Belly Pork Burger “WOW” we travel around the world on holiday and I have to say that it was the BEST JUICY BURGER we have ever had. The Best taste!

Nice ambient restaurant. They serve some nice pork burgers and other dishes. Just need to take note they close at 5pm. We just arrived at 4.10pm in time to order some nachos, sweet potato and a pork belly burger. They also serve IPA from Japan. The beer taste was wonderful for the hot weather. Will be there again to try their other dishes on their menu.

The best meal we had on our 6 days in Melaka. We walked around in circles trying to find it & eventually caught a taxi. The sign is difficult to see with the lush vegetation at the entrance. Once inside it is like walking into an oasis. It is simply beautiful with the plants & art work. The service is excellent, quick & efficient, The food, while it is mainly burgers was very good & they have an excellent Vietnamese coffee on the menu served like they do in Vietnam. Do yourself a favour & go for a meal. They are only open until 17h00 & very popular. You might have to wait for a table

This is a must-do. Food is great (I had mushroom omelette), wife had smoked chicken. Coffee also great. If you’re someone who likes lattes, beware that the milk is less strong than usual so you can taste the berry notes in the bean. Ambience: fantastic. Beautiful courtyards with Malayan jungle growth. I’m literally sitting 2 metres from an actual well.

Visited Baboon restaurant on 26Sep22 at around 4.30pm to taste the delightful pork burger which I had in 2019. Was turn away as they close at 5pm. Very disappointed indeed as I had made it as one of my food itineraries in my Melaka visit from Singapore. I couldn’t go another day as I had only a few days short trip to Melaka. Rdgs KT
