Sometimes, a good cup of coffee is best enjoyed with a view. Even if the coffee isn’t life-changing, a pretty setting can make all the difference. While cafes in Singapore with scenic views are hard to come by, with many tucked inside malls or surrounded by high-rise buildings, Malaysian coffee chain ZUS Coffee has outlets blessed with views worth slowing down for.
If you frequently visit our neighbours across the Causeway, we’ve rounded up some of the most scenic ZUS Coffee outlets worth checking out. All of them are in popular spots, making them easy to add to your next trip to Malaysia.

No, you’re not looking at a mini Eiffel Tower, but rather Langkawi’s MAHA Tower, which is also home to one of the island’s coolest ZUS Coffee outlets. Tucked at the base of the 138m-tall tower, the outlet sits beneath Langkawi’s tallest landmark, whose architecture blends futuristic steel and glass with geometric designs inspired by local folklore.

Not keen on sitting in the air-conditioned outlet? Head to the outdoor seating area for unobstructed views of the surrounding Andaman Sea.
Alternatively, pay a little extra to take your drink up to the tower’s sky decks, where you’ll be treated to breathtaking 360° panoramic views. Don’t forget to snap some photos while you are there!

If you’re craving a little countryside escape without driving too far from JB Sentral, ZUS Coffee at Setia Eco Garden in Gelang Patah might just be the spot for you. Around a 30-minute drive from JB Sentral, this outlet features warm wood finishes, minimalist furnishings, and plenty of greenery for a relaxing time.
You’ll also find low-slung sand chairs, foldable camping chairs, beanbags, and wooden tables scattered around the space. Decorative indoor tents complete the glamping-inspired setup, making it feel more like a campsite than your typical coffee outlet.
One of the more unique entries on our list is ZUS Coffee Meets Pastry at Selangor’s 1 Utama Shopping Centre, which offers more than the usual coffee. As the brand’s 1st pastry-focused concept store, it puts baked treats in the spotlight, with options such as Beef Rendang Pie, Pretzel Sausage, and Chocolate Chip Brioche to choose from.
However, the stars of the show are the oversized croissant sculptures that double as quirky photo spots, giving the cafe a playful identity that’ll surely stand out on your IG feed.
Located near 1 Utama’s indoor FlowRider and skate park, the outlet is a fun pit stop to grab a bite while taking a breather from shopping. If you’re craving ZUS Coffee’s usual drinks instead, there’s also a regular ZUS Coffee outlet at Level 2 in the mall.

For anyone looking to escape the usual city noise, ZUS Coffee at PD Waterfront in Port Dickson offers a coffee stop with a side of sea views. You might have seen this outlet pop up on social media one too many times. As the brand’s 1,000th store, it stands out with a 2-storey glasshouse perched along the shoreline, complete with large windows that let natural sunlight flood the cafe.
Here, you’ll find a beach club-inspired space decked out with custom surfboards and nautical-style cabana booths. Head upstairs to the open-air deck, where low-slung beach chairs offer a spot to sip your coffee while taking in views of the iconic Port Dickson coastline.

Before you even set foot into ZUS Coffee’s Taman Jubilee outlet in Ipoh, the breathtaking mural on the building’s facade would have already caught your attention. Brought to life by talented local artist Nas Suha, the artwork depicts a Chinese woman donning a traditional outfit and gracefully holding a kopitiam-style cup – a nod to the heritage of the local Ipoh community.

The artistic touches continue inside, where 3 smaller murals complement the cafe’s custom batik and Peranakan-inspired motifs. Paired with ZUS Coffee’s signature navy blue and white palette and warm wood grains, the space strikes a balance between modern cafe aesthetics and a nostalgic nod to the past.
ZUS Coffee Kasturi Walk, located in the heart of Kuala Lumpur, features another masterpiece by Nas Suha – a striking 2-storey mural celebrating Malaysian national pride.
Painted in bold red, white, and blue hues inspired by the Malaysian flag, the artwork adds a splash of colour to the restored Petaling Street heritage building, which retains much of its original architecture. Beyond its eye-catching mural, the outlet also carries exclusive merchandise, giving visitors another reason to stop by.

George Town in Penang is a favourite getaway spot for Singaporeans, so the next time you’re there, make sure to pop by ZUS Coffee at The Whiteaways Arcade.
Housed in another restored heritage building, this outlet arguably boasts the most atas-looking interiors on our list. High ceilings and large Gothic-style windows give the space an old-world charm, while the chevron parquet flooring adds to its posh look.
First built in the early 1900s and restored in 2011, The Whiteaways Arcade retains much of its historic character. Even if you’re only stopping by for a cup of ZUS coffee, do take a moment to admire the building’s distinctive features before heading off.

If you thought ZUS Coffee’s PD Waterfront outlet was a pretty sweet spot for coffee by the sea, wait till you see its Likas Bay outlet in Kota Kinabalu. Unlike the former, which sits within a larger lifestyle development, this branch is a standalone outlet along the waterfront.

Its blue-and-white striped canopy and large glass windows give it that classic seaside cafe aesthetic, while the modern and bright interior offers a cosy spot to enjoy your coffee.
Make the most of its coastal location by grabbing a seat outdoors, where you can sip on your coffee while taking in panoramic views of Likas Bay. Don’t miss the life-size ZUS Coffee statue at the entrance too.

ZUS Coffee’s Cabin In The Woods outlet located at Universiti Sains Malaysia (USM) in Penang lives up to its name with its cabin-style setting. Located at Cabin B within the USM campus, this outlet trades the brand’s typically prominent blue storefronts for a compact, rustic exterior that feels more like a forest hideaway shack.
Its small footprint is part of its charm, though don’t expect a spacious cafe to settle into for hours, as students have noted that seating is limited.
Instead, this branch is better suited for grabbing a quick coffee between classes or taking your drink on the go, with its woodland setting offering a refreshing change from the usual mall and shoplot outlets.
While this isn’t an exhaustive list of unique ZUS Coffee outlets in Malaysia, these 10 branches are among the most distinctive ones worth checking out. Some of these spots look so different from your usual coffee stop that you could almost fool your friends into thinking you’re sipping a cuppa somewhere in Europe!
