Nitro black coffee — I would say that this is the bomb here! Here for my first time for Coffice Hours and I totally liked what the barista suggested me to get. Not bitter, nutty with a citrusy twist — this month they are serving the cold brew with Nitrogen that I definitely like! Not totally on the cheap side, you pay RM16 for a glass of Nitro Black Coffee, but I would think that it’s worth the price. Parking at Pulp is quite a breeze during weekdays, in my opinion. There are plenty of parking spaces outside APW, of course during peak hours it might be hard. I also tried their cheese cake, which was great. It’s not the super soft and tender texture as I have expected, it’s slight grainy and coarse, and to my surprise I liked it! Gonna try some of their other cakes the next visit! Loved the place, except for they do not provide WiFi here. So, might not be that suitable to get some work done here. Other than that, love it!

Located at a remote area of hustle bustle bangsar, Jalan Riong. They have similar concept as their Singapore counterpart Chye Seng Huat Hardware. They have a very unique concept which house a café, open space with a display area of the equipments that they sell. Their staff and very knowledgable and they know coffee really well. Try to ask them for a good advice on what kind of single origin bean is good for your liking :) My personal advice is, try to go when there is lesser crowd or non peak hours, as when it is pack it could be a little bit pack and noisy

The coffee and vibe makes Pulp one of a kind in KL. It may not be easy to find but that’s one of its characters. Don’t expect wifi. This is a place to have coffee and verbal exchange, not your internet café.

Great place if you like your coffee and if you want to buy fresh beans plus the equipment that goes with it. But also a great venue because it’s actually in the compound of an actual printing plant.

Pulp would be a really hip place to have coffee. The baristas all look really professional and their coffee is amazing, even their hot chocolate. There are only a few tables in the café which makes seating really limited. It’s really simplistic and woody, the interior of the café. Parking can be a hassle because you can’t park inside. There is also a paper factory and a warehouse beside the café. The café would be said to be really hipster. People would always be taking photos and publicizing the place. Fun fact, they also sell aprons and coffee stuff in the café, so feel free to ask them if you need anything or have any questions. These people are truly the coffee experts. The coffee art is really nice as well.

It wasn’t the easiest place to find when I first visit Pulp. It’s situated in front of this warehouse where you will never think that it is actually a coffee house. The exterior is almost similar to the other parts of the warehouse but recently I’m seeing some decoration works to the exterior to make it stand out. A good change I must say. There’s about 10 tables or so with one very interesting table that is actually a printing press machine being converted into a table plus decoration piece. It is quite warm in this place because the only thing that is keeping you away from the hot sun is the bare roof. So do find a spot away from the sun or you will melt. The coffee is top notch here and the staffs are pleasant and nice. Definitely a place I would pop by anytime for coffee and meals even!

Pulp is one of the hipster place in the town. You will be amazed when you drive to the place as this café located behind a abandoned factory. However, it doesn’t affect the outlook and the design of this café. Indeed, I love the ambience there. It’s a very cool place that full of the coffee scent. However I’m not a coffee lover, hence I can’t comment anything on the coffee. But I heard their cold brew is not bad and it’s packaging is cool as well, which is filled in a brown color bottle. I had once tried its desserts. It was actually so so, nothing that impressed me. Apart from that, this café is actually not very big and doesn’t have many seatings. Therefore, it usually get full easily. Moreover, unlike other cafes, Pulp doesn’t provide any free internet access(wifi), which it won’t be a good place for you to sit down and work.

I know of this place from a friend whom i was having lunch with at a café in Telawi Bangsar. As he was describing the place to me and telling me on how he is impressed with how unique the place is i was like«oh my god than why are we not there?!» LOL. Anyway after hearing such good raves about the place, i decided to head over(about a week after) with my mom as she loves cafes as such and coffee. We were indeed impressed by PULP as they served good quality coffee and also had a variety of brewing methods. They also had a yummy spread of desserts and pastries such as scones, cakes and brownies. Mom had a cup of cappuccino and i had their long black accompanied by their walnut brownie which was to die for. So worth the extra calories for the day.

This place is unrecognisable! I was trying to find a nice café near home and I was told about this place so I walked there but then I couldn’t recognize it, it looked like a company’s parking lot entrance but then there it was! I really liked the design and atmosphere though! I do like that it doesn’t seem like a café from the outside. those are usually the best honestly! I was disappointed that they only had one kind of cold coffee and that it was expensive as hell! I’m definitely not going back there for the simple reason that if I am to spend so much on my coffee then might as well just check out Starbucks finest coffee.

If you’re serious about coffee, PULP is pretty good. They have all kinds of machines and tools to make their brews but my favourite will always be the cold-brew. It comes in a bottle with a really cute label and it’s served with a glass of ice. It’s pretty strong if you’re not used to coffee, but as the drink melts over the ice, it gets more mellow. With the brownie or carrot cake, it’s absolutely perfect! I also like the set-up here. It used to be an old printing shop which is why they have an old printer still planted in the café. It’s also pretty spacious, even though it’s difficult to score seats on the weekends. It’s only poof that PULP knows its coffee and attracts all sorts of coffee lovers. I always get served by a friendly lady who’s always smiling. It’s nice to see a serious coffee place with such approachable service and on that basis alone, it’s worthy of coming back again and again.

Café disguised as a warehouse! Pulp has one of the best concepts in KL, hands down. This café has a simple elegance to its design. The interior is has high ceilings and allows the right amount of natural light to flow into the café. PULP has created quite a buzz since its establishment. They serve some of the best cold brew coffee I’ve had. I’ve heard they supply beans to some of other well known café’s around the area. I’d recommend swinging by PULP during a weekday during off-peak hours, they tend to get really crowded during the weekends.

This hidden coffee Mecca can be found in a very unassuming spot in Bangsar. When I got out of my taxi I looked around and thought I was in the wrong place. There is no big sign and the building blends in with the quasi industrial feel of the rest of the block. On the inside it is a Bangsar hipster coffee drinkers paradise. I’m not a big coffee drinker myself, but you can tell that great care is taken with coffee here. The menu is limited to almost entirely coffee and it fills the place with the lovely aroma. The music was great and the staff is intelligent. I felt very comfortable and it was a great place for my brief casual business meeting.

PULP is a Malaysia flagship store of Papa Palheta from Singapore. It’s located at Jalan Riong, in the same compound as NSTP. The moment you can see the orange NSTP building in front of you, PULP is not far away. Alternatively, you can just find your way there easily via Waze(search word: PULP). The interior is simple and the high ceilings allowed the natural lights to come through, thus brighten up the entire space. One down side would be their limited seats. Joe and I managed to grab a sit on our first visit, but wasn’t so lucky on our subsequent visits. Instead of the usual selections, they offer more specialty coffee here in PULP. There’ll be a list of coffee at the counter, but you are always welcome to consult with the baristas and they will be more than willing to explain it to you. I tried their Konga Cold Brew and really liked the hint of floral and lemony aroma that came with it. However, if you prefer to add milk into your coffee, they have some simple ones like Latte and Flat White. Email: Facebook: Instagram: @pulpbyppp

From the first glance, you wouldn’t be able to tell that this is a café. It looks like some industrial storage space on the outside(this is when they did not put out the chairs at the front). It’s a totally different story once you’ve stepped inside. The high ceiling space made it look so much bigger. State of the art coffee machines are strategically located around the café and you can watch these talented baristas work their magic. The décor is quite minimalistic with no fancy art propped up against the wall. My first impression when I stepped into this place is that these people are really serious about their coffee. Which is fantastic! There is a section of the café that allows you to experience their filter coffee. It’s great to hover around that area and learn a thing or two. Additionally, all staff here are well trained in handling new coffee lovers to coffee connoisseurs. If I’m not mistaken, they do hold coffee appreciation sessions. I did not enquire much about this as I was in a hurry but that’s a great activity to do if you have a thing for coffee. This might be even a cool date plan. I ordered a house specialty blend latte and as expected, it tasted amazing. The Brazilian beans added a tinge of dry fruity flavor to the coffee. I’ve not tried the cakes but they do look delish! The only unfortunate thing here is that they’ve got no WiFi. This means I always have to use my phone’s hot spot to work here and I cannot afford to ramp up my data bill every month just because I love getting some work done at this place. Ahh guess I’ll only visit when I’m out to meet people.

Getting away from a busy life is always my strong tendency during weekend. PULP is a perfect choice for me. Situated in Bangsar but away from congested streets, its location with its surrounding building is a big contrast — neighbouring with factories and offices. However, the moment you enter the café, probably this will be your reaction«great choice to start my weekend!». What attracts me the most is its CLEAN design. High ceiling and creates comfortable and natural brightness to the interior. PULP is not a super spacious café. It has less than 10 tables(I assume?) but it is big enough to serve a handful of customers without having a mild chaos. The bartenders and all other staffs are friendly enough. I visited this café after taking a long nap in the afternoon and I was kinda clumsy and slow in reaction while ordering my drink. The bartenders are engaging enough to open up different conversations when I ordered and delivered the drink to me. They are very enthusiastic and add the important«human touch» to the café. At that split moment, it feels like home rather than a café. I got myself a cup of Konga. It is an aromatic and mildly-roasted coffee with lemon scents. Guess this is a good choice for a mild coffee user. NOTE: They often update their menu and do seek for their recommendation when you’re ordering. Apart from drinks, they serve a wide range of food from pies, to tarts and cakes. It doesn’t have wifi. I guess the owner wants to avoid people from«camping» there for work /study. In overall, it is a good starting point for your weekend outing.
