Navy Cafe

Top choice in Melaka City


A lovely place for a scrambled egg breakfast, smoothie bowl or moreish lunch, the food at this small cafe is tops. Dishes regularly change, but stewed white fish with Japanese tofu, salmon and egg donburi and savoury chicken burger, along with sandwiches and salads, are all a hit. Wash it all down with an iced coffee.
