As someone who works here, I can honestly say this café is something special. We take pride in serving quality coffee, fresh food, and creating a welcoming space for everyone. It's a great place to relax, catch up with friends, or get some work done. the food here is 10/10 and definitely worth trying especially our best-selling Beef Bang Burger!

A timeless taste that crossover traditions and modernity. Delicacies that still preserves the spirit of ancestral heritage taste. The appetizing scent of caffeine paired with full-of-love foods. Gonna recommend Kulma Nachos, Iced Butterscoth Latte and their best selling Biscoff Frappé.

FOOD: 100000000000/10 I’m a foodie and when I like the food, I ALWAYS crave it. First impression is a big deal to me, and 1860 did not disappoint. AMBIANCE: 10/10 Aesthetically pleasing—every corner is IG-worthy! STAFF: 1000000/10 I was one of their first and returning customers, then I got super busy and wasn’t able to visit for months. I was surprised they still remembered me when I came back—even calling me by name When businesses truly value their customers, abundance follows! I’ve always recommended 1860 on other platforms, even before they had Google reviews. PLACE: 9/10 It gets crowded sometimes, and there’s no generator - totally not a big deal if you’re not working. Lots of parking space available and it’s near to my fave spa!!! INTERNET: 10/10 Fast and stable! Good for working PRICE: Ok, I know they’re a bit expensive, BUT it’s totally worth it!!! This is my go-to café when I need to work: good coffee, stable internet, great food, and friendly staff! I can’t wait for their next branch to open!!!

The café's interior gives off this warm cozy vibe. It's aesthetically pleasing to the eye. It has comfy chairs with pillows. The music playing was just at the right volume and not too loud. Some cafés blasts their music so hard you could barely hear your conversation. (P.s. It's my 2nd time visiting the café) They have a private room for special occassions such as birthdays, and company/business meeting. You can also study there but it'll be case to case basis since it could be crowded and noisy at times. The foods we ordered suited our tastebuds. From the chicken dish to the pasta, it was really good and flavorful. The presentation of food was neat. The hot matcha drink gives this strong earthy flavor if you opted to remove the sugar/sugar syrup completely and that's how I like my matcha best. You should also give their coffee drinks a try. The lattes could be substituted with oat milk. They also have their signature drinks. If you're planning to visit this café then I highly recommend it. They have drinks, set meals, and pastries. Pictures posted are from the 2nd floor of the café.

We had dinner here and ordered their burger and fries, which were really good—no complaints about the food itself. Everything was flavorful, and the portions were satisfying. One thing that really stood out was the yellow sauce (I’m not sure what it’s called), but it had a very unique flavor—I loved it! It added a great twist to the burger and the dip for the fries. We also got two coffees: I ordered an iced cappuccino, and my partner ordered a hot butterscotch. Unfortunately, the drinks got mixed up—we received a hot cappuccino and an iced butterscotch instead. The staff offered to change them, which I appreciated, but I didn’t want them to shoulder the cost for the mistake, so we just kept the drinks as they were. The place has a nice, cozy, and relaxing ambiance. However, the table we were seated at was not comfortable for dining. It was narrow and not aligned properly with the seating, so we had to bend forward awkwardly to eat. One more suggestion: it would be better if the burger was served on a proper plate instead of in a basket with paper. It was difficult to slice the burger with a knife since the paper kept getting cut, making things messier than necessary. A plate would make the experience neater and more convenient. Overall, a lovely spot with great food and unique flavors, but there’s room for improvement in service accuracy and dining comfort.
