The toast & bun traditionally baked taste so good. Service also good. Not so much seat and must queue patiently😊. Strategic place, between the famous Ban Heang and Cheng Woh store.

came here early morning 8am just to queue for our lil breakfast🍞

Toh Soon Cafe in Penang is a legendary spot, famed for its traditional charcoal-toasted bread and aromatic coffee, all at very affordable prices. Give yourself a treat and experience the nostalgic flavors of old-world Penang.

overall, we enjoyed the breakfast here especially their toast with poached egg it’s suprisingly greatt!! ⭐️

The almond coffee is 9,5/10.
The nasi lemak bungkus 9,5/10
Everything is good here. Definitely will go back here!
Its worth the long queue.

Simple local breakfast food selection; toasted flavoured bread with your preferred choice of spread, soft-boiled eggs, tea & coffee and also the traditional nasi-lemak wrapped in packing paper. Their in-house coffee was good and my mother had to get a bag of their instant coffee home. Service staff were friendly, polite and prompt! Queue starts shortly before lunch-hour and you might be caught basking in the sun heat, do plan your trip!

Simple menu offering local breakfast. You can taste the smokiness from the charcoal toasted bread which goes very nicely with Kaya. Some pieces weren’t as heavily toasted so those lacked that characteristic smokiness. Ordered Yuan Yang less sweet (coffee mixed with tea) but it was still too sweet.

Relatively fast turnover but they tend to attract large groups so that could affect how long you have to wait. They have limited seating in an air conditioned area within the Ban Heang store next door. Overall an enjoyable meal but I wouldn’t go out of my way to eat it.

Ordered the black charcoal sesame and chocolate flavour bread, which are quite special. There're also a variety of other flavour bread and buns to choose from.

Ordered the iced Ho Ka Sai which is coffee + milo. Taste quite good as this is quite a popular drink in Malaysia, not just in Penang. The iced Almond milk is quite nice too.

You can also ordered the Lor Bak which is known as 五香 in Singapore. The coffee shop is just next to the famous 万香糕饼店。

Parking is a big problem as the roadside parking lots are always full. I have to drive to the next street to get a parking lot

This was one of the meals I was looking forward to while visiting Penang. We came on a Monday morning and there was a queue when we arrived but it was fast. Soon enough, we were seated and ready to order.

Their Nasi Lemak was really good, one of the few good ones I've tried. The Sambal (Chilli Paste) was fragrant and I really enjoyed it (This is coming from someone who doesn't eat spicy food). The Roti Bakar (Toasts) and eggs were all delicious. Good coffee too.

Overall, I really enjoyed my meal here. Although, the food was pretty pricey compared to your typical Malaysian toasts and coffee. Understandable considering it is a touristy area.
