We opened our first cafe in 2013 with the mission of offering specialty coffee in a warm and inclusive environment.
During our expansion, we quickly understood that as a company, our central commitment was to our employees. It is with them and thanks to them that everything else is possible.
Overall, MELK Café is described as a cozy, small spot with excellent coffee, standout matcha and scones, and friendly, fast service that makes it a good place to work or study, though seating is limited and the space can feel crowded during peak times. The menu and drinks get high marks, pastries are often praised, and prices are generally considered reasonable, with some notes about the occasional pastry being a bit sweet or the espresso not having depth. A few reviews mention moments of inconsistent service or a busy, noisy atmosphere, and one highlights a tip prompt at payment, but the overall vibe is warm and the quality of drinks and snacks keeps people returning.
Chill cafe in a well-lit place. Not too big, has enough room for 14 people, maybe more along the wall but then it would be really crowded. Laid-back staff & music.
Small cafe with delicious coffee & pastries. The coffee had a bold & intense flavor which I liked.
Note: they are unable to warm up the chocolate croissants.
Came here to get out of the rain. The service was very kind, drinks were beautifully prepared. The space is small but cozy, with bathrooms in the parking garage connected to the cafe. Definitely would recommend to anyone looking for a good latte & dirty chai!

Service could be improved. The cashier didn't greet or say anything. Only responded when I asked her questions. Dine-in orders were prepared in takeout cups without asking.
