17Gram Beans USJ 21 — Restaurant in Subang Jaya

I’m not a coffee enthusiast so take my review with a grain of salt. I can’t tell if the coffee is good or mediocre because it just tasted like coffee to me. I guess it’s ok ok because it’s not too bitter or sour or burnt, which is my basic criteria. The process is pretty slow (10 mins per coffee?), so I can’t tell if the slow process makes the coffee better or not. Kudos to the founders for sticking to what they believe in though.

Nasi lemak and other kuihs on sale are apparently made by the Co-founder which is the wife. Really good nasi lemak even though it doesn’t have peanuts or ikan bilis (prob good if you have peanut allergy). Prob one of the better nasi lemaks I’ve had in subang.

The place itself is small and quaint, each table has a plug point so you can do a bit of work while waiting. Since it’s right next to the highway, you best bring your noise cancellation earphones.

Edit: Tried with oat milk and the coffee tasted significantly better! Also tried pretty much all their food by now, carrot cake is good, chicken pie is good, the egg sando 😭 reminds me of waterfall sandwiches. You know the type your mom makes for picnics lepas swimming...

I always passby this cafe. It's an unique location as it is under the LRT station. Very small plaxe. I wasn't able to visit here early because they close at 5PM. Today I was on leave and it was heavy rain so I was stuck at LRT.

Came down, very small but yet cosy due to the placement of the furniture, the decorations with their reading books and toys for kids. I have to admit though, it is very noisy outside since it is just beside the main road. People actually take away with their drinks since this place has limited space. If you brought a big family, pretty much fill up the whole cafe.

The boss and his assistant are friendly. Most likely the customers are those regulars, especially the working people. It also attracts tourist because nearby is main place where most of the Airbnb tenants are staying.

I had latte and yes it taste as good as it is. I haven't try their dessert yet. Maybe another time when I come and visit here. The price is...

My favourite local coffee joint to visit, love supporting Abang Jai & Kak Emi’s small business. They are passionate about making good coffee the slow way. No point coming here if you’re in a hurry as it’s a slow coffee bar 😉 Every cuppa coffee is handmade with love by Abang Jai who is a self taught barrista using his manual espresso lever Flair machine thingie 🤪 He left his accounting profession to pursue this passion & I love supporting people with career stories like this! 💯🥲 They know most of their regular customers and their order well! They also sell delicious homemade Nasi lemak made by kak Emi (limited and only sold on weekends) and pastries / cakes made by other...
