Charlie Brown Cafe Malaysia

Charlie Brown Cafe in Straits Quay, Penang is the first Charlie Brown Cafe in Malaysia. It opened its door back in April 2011 and has since been overwhelmed by patrons.

The place was packed with patrons

Almost every seats were occupied

Charlie Brown Cafe Malaysia is self-service and the queue is not surprisingly long since its opening was just a month ago.

However, be prepared to pay with cash since Charlie Brown Cafe Malaysia only accepts credit cards for order above MYR 100.

Food & Beverages

The menu was not available at every table, thus, we have to get it from the counter before going back for a queue at the counter. We realized that the staff later on requested the menu back from us and passed it to another table.

Likes its international outlets, the drinks are available in hot, cold and "Frappa" version.

Chocolate (Cold)

Caffee Mocha (Hot) with Woodstock coffee art

Woodstock coffee art

The coffee art for Woodstock wasn’t that great. In fact, it only reassembled Woodstock but didn’t have enough outlined details.

Cappuccino (Hot) with Snoopy coffee art

Caffee Mocha (Frappa)

Caffee Latte (Frappa)

Charlie Brown (8″) Chicken Pizza

The food and drinks were just normal and there wasn’t anything to shout about.

The only thing worthy was the Caffee Mocha drinks, especially the Frappa. Even so, it wasn’t really that great.

Overall, Charlie Brown Cafe Malaysia is no doubt well-designed and decorated. However, there are still plenty of room for improvement in terms of service and quality of food. The only thing worth paying for was the ambiance (and even so, there are Starbucks Coffee and Dome just a level below) and unless they improve on the other areas, they won’t expect a second visit from us. Charlie Brown Cafe in Tsim Sha Tsui, Hong Kong is tenfold better in terms of service.
