“ Hou hou sandwiches taste good, full with eggs, soft and creamy. But recently tasteless don't know why. Recommend to order with nuggets. Their nuggets taste like premium grade. Crispy and juicy. Spaghetti so so. The pumpkin soup, bowl was so hot but the soup inside was not hot. The top part is room temperature and the bottom part is a bit warm. Garlic bread is not bad, if they put more garlic it will be even better The environment is comfortable, bright and cozy. Very clean. Service also good, fast and polite. For Takeaway or food delivery, the foods quality need to improve. Much different compare to consume at cafe. ”
“ HouHou Sandwich Bar is a cozy breakfast café with a relaxed, welcoming vibe. Their HouHou Special Spaghetti is a standout—creamy, rich but not greasy, topped with fresh shrimp and salmon roe for a flavorful kick . Everything feels fresh and well-prepared, and the atmosphere is perfect for a chill morning meal without rushing. ”
“ The sandwich bar is located on the first floor and one might have to do a very little exercise before reaching the premise. The internal design is mostly covered with yellow color which makes it look vibrant. The furniture is a bit European style. Tables can accommodate 2 - 6 pax and of course they are willing to help up attaching tables together to accommodate bigger groups. Overall, the premise is clean and well kept. Kids would love the sandwiches as one can choose to add on nuggets or french fries plus a drink with just RM 3. ”
“ Cafe is situated on the 2nd or 3rd floor of a shop lot..So, if you are physically impaired or someone with lower joint problems then this place isn’t suitable... I like the toast and the crispiness of the croissants here..I have not try their bagels but I’m assuming it’s good as well..you cannot go wrong with bagels and cream cheese..right?? .. Their coffee is also okay I would say…If you don’t want the sugar, inform them beforehand..I tried their Signature Coffee and its was so sweet for me..The next time I ordered without sugar and it was nice..Their Chai latte tastes more milky than chai…so customised your order according to your preferences. Their prices are on the high side…I would come here once a month or probably twice..It tends to get full during the weekends so do visit early. They have limited seats.. Paid parking (MBSP) is available..I usually come on a Saturday so there’s always parking available..Since it’s a commercial area, it might be difficult to find one on weekdays. I would recommend to try this place. ”
“ The sandwiches are nice. Its speghetti are delicious too. Speed of food serving is reasonable. Quite some new menu items have been added. Environment is cozy, just the machine to prepare soy drink is noisy when running. ”
“ Nice place for delicious breakfast Western style. Only negative is need to climb to 3rd floor. Although little pricy, it's all worth it. ”
“ This is our first time dining at the place after previously ordering a takeaway many years back. You should be able to find a parking spot in front of the place as there are ample spaces here. The problem is that the cafe is situated upstairs and there is no elevator to give you an easy access so people with a baby/elderly or even a baby stroller, wheelchair, etc. are better off eating elsewhere. The environment of the cafe is neat and clean but it can feel a bit cramped inside during a busy day seeing that the place is not very big. The staffs were very friendly during our time there and our food arrived in a short time. There was no problem with our dishes as our hou hou set and pasta were delicious. Bear in mind there are more bread type dishes than other dishes such as pasta so the food variety is very limited. The food prices is pretty reasonable as we did not even spend over RM50 for 3 people. Overall, this place is suitable for friends, couples, and young families to visit once in a while. ”
“ It is located on the 2nd floor. You need to go up with a staircase. Interior is bright, spacious, and comfortable. The egg sandwich is normal. The beef in the teriyaki beef sandwich is too hard, and the boiled egg is cold. Seems like it is taken out from the refrigerator. ”
