Editor’s Note

Last updated 21 Jul 2026

Our take: Oriental Kopi at NEX offers a taste of Malaysian comfort food, with a menu that extends beyond just kopi and pastries to include Penang-style dishes.

We note consistent praise for their service, described as fast, friendly, and professional, even during busy periods.

The Oriental egg tarts are highlighted for their flakiness and generous egg filling, though some find them a bit pricey.

The Polo Bun is a standout, frequently recommended as a must-order item that justifies a visit on its own.

While the Hainanese Chicken Rice receives mixed reviews, with some finding the chicken tough despite excellent chilli and rice, the overall food quality is generally considered tasty and comforting.

Portions are sometimes described as small.

We'd recommend visiting after 8-9pm to avoid the longer queues that can reach 30 minutes during peak hours.

A reliable option for a casual meal, especially if you're craving Malaysian flavours.

What customers say

Oriental Kopi @ NEX generally receives positive feedback for its Malaysian comfort food, particularly the highly recommended polo bun and flaky egg tarts, despite some items being considered pricey.

While service is consistently praised for being fast, friendly, and responsive, long queues are a frequent deterrent for some customers.

Portions can be small, and occasional quality control issues like eggshells in food have been reported, though staff are noted for excellent service recovery.
