Vintage Green Cafe

Melaka City

LoginSave

It's difficult to differentiate what's purely decorative and what's for sale in this hybrid vintage shop and cafe inside an old shophouse. There are plenty of mildewed old postcards, books and magazines for sale – browse the display before settling down for a fresh juice, local coffee and simple snack such as roti with butter and kaya (coconut-cream jam).

Upstairs is the Loft@13 Hibiscus rental apartment sleeping up to five people (weekdays/weekends RM250/500), which can be rented through Airbnb.
