Pretty good coffee - This place has the old school kopitiam vibes. This is where you can see Muhhibah in action i.e. customers from all walks of life.

Best kopitiam in Pontian ever. A harmony place where all races of residents gather and have their breakfast here. There are many selections of food like nasi lemak, fried noodles, traditional parties and standard breakfast that everybody loves them. The coffee here is strongly suggested as it tasted so nice, fragrant and thick. This kopitiam is also famous after a visit by Johor Sultan.
