Curbside Coffee 5 Must Visit Spots In Kuala Lumpur For A Quick Caffeine Fix

---

It’s no secret that many Malaysians live off coffee to get through their day. It has become such a daily staple in our diets, like rice.

We can find coffee at almost every corner – in restaurants, malls, shoplots, office buildings, events, and even in almost every home.
But what if you’re looking for a coffee spot right by the side of the road? Somewhere you can just drive right up to the barista to get your cup of coffee and enjoy it as you watch the world go by?
We’ve found a few places you might like around Kuala Lumpur and Selangor where they serve caffeine literally by the roadside.
BLUUM – Taman Melawati A simple setup with great quality coffee (Credit: @bluum_rc) This cute little stall serves moka pot coffee in a quiet area of Taman Melawati. They have a few stools and benches set up right next to the store for those who want to have their coffee there.
BLUUM also serves decadent pasta and soft cookies to go with your coffee.
While it does sit by the roadside, the cafe’s environment is actually pretty tranquil. There are plenty of trees surrounding the place which also provides shade from the sun if you’re dining in.
Operating hours: Every day (8am – 11pm)
Address: Jalan I 7, Taman Melawati, 53100 Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur

BLVCK (coffee van) – Bukit Tunku and Damansara Heights They’re a popular spot for cyclists passing through the area. BLVCK Coffee is run by two brothers who decided to set up a coffee stall sometime during the pandemic.
Now they operate out of a van called the BLVCK Wagon stationed at Jalan Setiamurni in Damansara Heights on weekdays, and Bukit Tunku on weeekends.
You do have to keep an eye on their instagram page for updates though, as the BLVCK Wagon also gets hired to serve coffee at events sometimes.
They make coffee from an espresso machine in the van and they also serve chocolate drinks as well as various teas. There’s also butterbeer in their menu for all the Harry Potter fans out there.
There is also a BLVCK Coffee kiosk at Ampang Park just as you exit the station where the skate park is.
The BLVCK Coffee outlet at Ampang Park. Operating hours: Monday (7.30am – 3pm)
Tuesday – Friday (7.30am – 3pm, 6pm – 11.30pm)
Saturday and Sunday (7.45am – 1.30pm)

Kopi Rumah – Wangsa Maju Coffee for night owls. (Credit: @kopirumah_my) A pop up coffee shop running out the back of a camper van, Kopi Rumah is a spot for night owls as they only open in the evening.
There seems to be a surging popularity in hanging out while drinking coffee at night and this place is here to serve.
The aesthetic of the van is such a vibe. (Credit: @kopirumah_my) Their menu includes the basics such as americano, cappucinno, and lattes but they also have flavoured coffee drinks like caramel macchiato or matcha with espresso.
For non-coffee drinkers, they have chocolate and matcha drinks as well as flavoured sodas.

Bonus: Campsyde – Damansara Okay so this cafe is not exactly by the side of the road but it’s worth mentioning because you can drive right up to it.
Campsyde is a little concrete cabin in the woods just ten minutes away from Taman Tun Dr. Ismail (TTDI) that serves smooth coffee and some light snacks.
If you’re looking for a coffee place to hang out away from the hustle and bustle of the city, this place is ideal. Parking space is plentiful and the environment here is as peaceful as it can get.
Do keep in mind that Campsyde operates in the evening until midnight.
Operating hours: Monday to Sunday (5pm – 12am)
Address: Jalan Sungai Penchala 12, Taman Tun Dr Ismail, 60000 Kuala Lumpur, Wilayah Persekutuan Kuala Lumpur
