Borneo rock cafe — Restaurant in Borneo

Visited at mid-January. An extraordinary cafe hidden at a corner of Semporna town. If you favour something other than seafood fiesta, just drop by this amazing cafe. The food is amazing and superb, while the atmosphere is simply serene and chillax. Zapiekanka is a must try, all favours are awesome. When we were there, just nice the shop owner is in and had a nice chat with us. Apparently he is from Malacca and decided to venture into business after visiting Semporna and fell for her beauty. P.S. A guy mistaken us for PRC tourists and made his way into the cafe to apologize. Turns out, he's a diving instructor here and shared tonnes of diving tips and stories with us. He even offered to link us up with his friends if we intend to pursue the diving certificate at West Malaysia. Superb friendly and nice guy. Seems like quite a number of divers will chill at the cafe, you can pop in and have a nice...

Good place for breakfast, especially if you’re heading out for a snorkel or diving trip — their sandwiches and bagels are great for takeaway.

I had a bagel with avocado and egg, and it was tasty.

Coffee was average, but they do have oat milk available. Just a heads-up: the oat milk was so sweet I couldn’t drink it — I suspect it’s the brand, as I’ve had the same experience at another café nearby. Better to ask if they add sugar or check the oat milk ingredients before ordering.

Limited seating available.

The staff were super nice and efficient.

Overall, a convenient and decent breakfast spot, especially for on-the-go days.

I feed a latte, but they use one of those machines you find in office pantry or hotel meeting rooms, which is OK.

The egg mayo sandwich seems to be with pre scrambled eggs, which I saw warmed up in the microwave. It served when a small salad topped with balsamic vinegar and cappers, which I find it to be unusual for Malaysia. I wish they would have put the slice of cheep on the top before warming up the eggs in the microwave.

Overall, it seemed a bit overpriced considering the quality and environment, but it seems popular in the morning. I think some hotel nearby gives breakfast coupons...
