Take Ten serves reliable cafe fare and specialty coffee in a clean, spacious second-floor space that scores well for ambiance. Quality swings between excellent comfort food (mushroom soup, hash brown sub) and poorly executed dishes (oversalted curry noodle, overcooked chicken and rice), with staff friendliness also variable; the pet-friendly tag appears withdrawn or unenforced since recent reviews claim it no longer is.
Recent shift: Pet-friendly status appears to have changed; multiple reviewers 1-2 months ago flagged that the cafe no longer accepts pets, whereas the directory still lists it in this category.
ZUS Coffee's specialty drinks, particularly the Ice Spanish Latte, draw consistent praise. Reviewers repeatedly name Fadh, a barista who handles rushes smoothly while staying polite and attentive. The outlet's calm environment and quick service stand out, though cashier warmth varies and the espresso machine noise occasionally interrupts the peaceful vibe.
Five-star reviews dominate with consistent praise for the industrial-chic double-storey space, signature dishes like truffle mushroom soup and Walnut Signature Coffee, and staff who go the extra mile. The venue works equally well as a lunch spot, late-night hangout, or celebration venue, though the price point is positioned at the premium end. Service stands out: named staff like Raju earn specific mention, and waiters are regularly noted as friendly and attentive. The kitchen delivers on visual presentation, matching plated dishes closely to the menu. Some gaps exist-one reviewer noted a lack of background music-but these are rare observations among heavily positive reports.
Reviewers consistently praise the coffee quality, staff warmth, and calm atmosphere. Standout baristas including Shah, Arif, Khairul, and Izral earn repeat visits through genuine care and knowledge. One reviewer noted extraction time variability and basic espresso skill despite premium pricing; another flagged a pricing mismatch the staff corrected with personal integrity.
