Bibik House Chendol — Restaurant in Malacca

Monday, 18Jun2025

We had a free evening, hence we explored some interesting eateries in Jonker Street.

Walked into Bibik House to try their famous Nonya Chendol.

The shaved ice was very fine and the coconut milk seemed to be freshly pressed and stall holder was generous when she poured into the shaved ice. Sufficient gula malaka was poured into each bowl as well. And we were “encouraged” to help ourselves with more gula malaka placed on each table. We were tempted but none of us added any more as the dessert was already sweet.

We must say the chendol was one of the best we had eaten so far during this trip to Malacca. The cost of MYR10 each bowl appeared on the high side but we felt the dessert was worth it as products used were mostly natural and fresh.

We ordered another of the stall’s specialty - the glutinous rice ball; which was flavored with blue pea flowers, also dipped into free flow gula malaka. We only consumed a small ball each as we didn’t want more carbohydrates 😂. It was pretty good though.

There were two versions of Chendol with Durian - one with Durian Puree (cost MYR18) and another with fresh Durian pulp (MYR38). But we didn’t want...

Bibik House on Jonker Street is a top-tier destination for chendol, serving up a nostalgic, delicious twist on this local favourite. The finely shaved ice melds perfectly with velvety coconut milk and fragrant gula melaka, and tables are stocked with free-flow palm sugar so you can adjust sweetness to your taste. Durian lovers can also enjoy the durian chendol, which many say is equally refreshing and flavourful.

Highlights: • Smooth, melt-in-your-mouth shaved ice and fresh-tasting coconut milk • Strong gula melaka fragrance with a hint of salt • Generous toppings like red beans • Friendly staff offering helpful serving tips • Free-flow gula melaka jar at each table for adjusting flavor

A few notes to consider: • Portions cost around RM6–7, slightly pricier than other vendors • Service can vary—some reviews mention brisk staff or tables in need of cleaning • Bottled sugar mix is handy but hygiene concerns were occasionally raised

Overall, Bibik House Chendol stands tall as one of Jonker Street’s best chendol stops. Its quality ingredients, thoughtful touches, and refreshing flavours make it a standout option—especially on a hot...

NOT recommended, unless u saje need one for convenience and don’t mind the value.

As a local, it used to be my favourite and go to for years. Recommended to many people last time.

Now price went up to RM10 per bowl, durian puree is like a clear yellowish sauce (not even flesh or fresh durian anymore as it used to be) at rm12 per bowl. Boss say go out and check price for palm sugar as it’s expensive now. Price got higher but Quality got worse, Taste getting very diluted and the palm sugar gula Melaka too getting diluted. Weird dry mouth aftertaste too this time. Partner tried few times before too has bad review for it. New friend we brought : expensive and no good.

The price doesn’t justify the quality. I wouldn’t waste my calorie here for the quality as it is now. Bad price for value, low quality for calorie. A lot others in area are better in comparison now. Will not come back . Walk out highly disappointed.

NOT recommended.
