Chubby Cafe Penang

So glad that we found this cozy cafe in the middle of George Town for tea after a long day of scavenging local Penang delicacies. Thoughtful decoration and warm ambient - great for catching up with friends and family, or simply to relax. My wife and I ordered the Tiramisu and coffees - Cappuccino and Latte - to share and thoroughly enjoyed our late afternoon there. The Tiramisu was a bomb! With the perfect balance of textures and flavours, each bite melted in the mouth and paired well with the well brewed coffees. The cafe owners are a friendly couple and that made the whole experience even better. We will be back when we visit again!

love the coconut steamboat here, no m.s.g., fresh ingredients without feel thristy after finished the soup. Good quality of matcha and coffee. Like the atmosphere of the cafe.

The environment is cozy, and the food is good, especially the coconut tomyam steamboat that we ordered. It preserves the sweetness of the coconut, accompanied by the tasty tomyam aroma, very good combo. The service here is very good too

Loved the hotpot at this café! There are so many choices, and they offer unique soup bases like tomato, milk, tom yum, and coconut. I tried the tomato soup, and it was rich and flavorful, with plenty of fresh ingredients. The portions were generous, and I left feeling so full and satisfied! The atmosphere is cozy, and the service is great. The owner mentioned that hotpot is only available in the evening, so be sure to come at the right time. Definitely coming back to try the other soup bases next time!

Absolutely love this hidden gem in George Town! Chubby Cafe Penang has such a cozy, welcoming vibe that makes you feel right at home. The food is beautifully presented and delicious. I highly recommend their fish head noodles, spicy chili crab omelette rice, coconut milkshake and orange coffee! Service was warm and attentive, and the staff really go the extra mile to make sure you’re taken care of. The space is clean, bright, and perfect for a chill brunch or casual dinner. Will definitely be back to try more of their seasonal specials. Highly recommended!

Great café located right below Citadines Cecil Hotel! I was visiting Penang with my British friends, and since we were staying at the hotel, we decided to drop by for breakfast. My friend ordered the Breakfast Bagel, which was super satisfying. The sourdough bagel was hearty and packed with hashbrown, omelette egg, tomato salad, and ham—a great combination to start the day! I had the Passionfruit Tea Soda, which was refreshing and perfectly balanced. The ambiance was cozy, and the owner was incredibly friendly. She even gave us some amazing local recommendations on where to eat and explore—places only locals would know! Definitely a must-visit café if you’re in the area.

Had a wonderful breakfast here! We ordered big breakfast and unagi croissant. The croissant was perfectly flaky and airy, unagi very flavorful. The big breakfast is great in portion size and quality ingredients. Love the sourdough, not too hard or chewy. The cozy ambiance and friendly service made the experience even better. Will definitely be back! I ordered hojitcha latte and my husband ordered mocha. The hojitcha latte had a deep and roasted flavor with just the right amount of creaminess.

Lovely breakfast spot, right next door to our hotel… Cool, calm and relaxing ambiance. Great variety on the menu that will suit your appetite… today we had the fabulous fruit, muesli, yogurt & honey bowl.
