What recent reviews say
Reviewers consistently praise the coffee quality and pricing-long blacks at RM6 and americanos at RM5 stand out against neighbourhood standards. The staff responds quickly and the space feels intentionally simple rather than cramped, with clean air-con surroundings.
Bean handling and temperature control impress specialty coffee drinkers; one reviewer noted the pour-over selection and proper extraction technique. Morning service can lag, parking nearby is typical Damansara frustration, and portion sizes have shifted on some items (matcha drinks mentioned). The experience suits someone seeking quality coffee without fuss or premium price tags.

Say Yes Cafe
4.5(1551)✓ Verified
Say Yes Cafe has built a loyal following for its fragrant nasi lemak, generous portions, and staff who greet regulars warmly. The retro setting and affordable pricing make it a go-to breakfast and lunch spot in Damansara Utama, though some diners note portion balance shifts and occasional quality fluctuations compared to nearby options. Service moves fast even during crowded periods, and the coffee pairs well with roti bakar and ayam goreng rempah. Recent regulars report consistent flavor and attentive waitstaff, though a small number mention that pulut portions and kaya spreads could be more even.
