Common Man Coffee Roasters - Kuala Lumpur

“Came here on a weekend morning after a workout. Saw that this cafe had quite a high rating, so decided to give it a try. Ordered a simple breakfast set: Streaky bacon croissant with scrambled egg & hot black. The croissant was fluffy with a generous amount of protein. As for the black coffee that I ordered, it had a slightly acidic and fruity note to it. The environment was very pleasant and chill.”

“One of our regular coffee and brunch spot and indeed the food has gotten even better. We had the smash burger which was grilled well and the patty was juicy and succulent. The French Toast Brioche as usual was excellent and one of the better ones in town. The Raya Special Onde Onde Drink is an acquired taste. We also had Churros as dessert which was tasty but the dough will need to be more crunchy. The presentation is very good. Overall a wonderful brunch experience especially with the wonderful staff making our dining experience feeling super.”

“Not crowded at all during weekend Sunday 10am, staff was nice, can bring pet for outdoor seating, love how their big breakfast serve house made hash browns and baked beans! Love their Chicken Sandwich Ciabatta too, clean and tasty. Price point slightly high.”

“This breakfast place is absolutely delicious!! You definitely won't be disappointed!! The environment is comfortable with seating both inside and outside. The food portions are also very generous; I recommend sharing between two people.”

“Common Man Coffee in Kuala Lumpur is a popular spot, especially among locals, and it’s easy to see why it draws a crowd. The cafe has a lively atmosphere, and despite being very busy, the staff manage to provide good service, staying attentive and efficient even during peak hours. The place feels modern and welcoming, making it a comfortable option for breakfast or brunch. The food, however, is a bit hit-and-miss. I tried the shakshuka, which was okay—not bad, but not particularly memorable either. The focaccia bread, unfortunately, was very soggy and oily, which detracted from the overall experience. On the positive side, the sourdough and other baked goods are generally well-prepared, showing some care in execution. Coffee portions here are generous, though even the small cup feels oversized for those who prefer a lighter caffeine fix. Despite these minor drawbacks, Common Man Coffee still delivers a solid experience thanks to its consistent service and the overall vibe of the cafe. It’s easy to see why it’s a favorite among locals, offering a bustling environment and reliable menu options. For anyone in KL looking for a casual brunch spot with decent food and good coffee, this cafe is worth a visit, though managing expectations on the bread and shakshuka is advised.”
