The cafe is a hidden gem for homemade cakes and Asian delights tucked among rows of traditional shops.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"563\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.ipacktravel.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/YearnCafe-1.jpg\" alt=\"Yearn Cafe @ Pontian Kechil\" class=\"wp-image-7132\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.ipacktravel.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/YearnCafe-1.jpg 750w, https:\/\/blog.ipacktravel.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/YearnCafe-1-300x225.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cafe has simple decorations and is very neat and tidy with a very relaxing vibe. There is a Mona Studio \u2014 for eyelash, nails and waxing \u2014 housed within the cafe and is adored by ladies. The lady owner is very friendly and will introduce each item on the menu.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"750\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.ipacktravel.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/YearnCafe-2.jpeg\" alt=\"Yearn Cafe: Interior\" class=\"wp-image-7133\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.ipacktravel.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/YearnCafe-2.jpeg 1000w, https:\/\/blog.ipacktravel.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/YearnCafe-2-300x225.jpeg 300w, https:\/\/blog.ipacktravel.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/YearnCafe-2-768x576.jpeg 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The cafe serves hot \/ iced black, white and Isuzu Matcha espresso coffees. There are fruit teas, fruit &amp; Yakult and fruit &amp; yogurt blended beverages too. The Avocado Yogurt Blended, topped with a slice of avocado and a spice leaf (wonder what is it?), is smooth, creamy and refreshing with nice avocado-yogurt flavour and a really great drink to have on hot days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"579\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.ipacktravel.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/YearnCafe-3.jpeg\" alt=\"Yearn Cafe: Avocado Yogurt Blended\" class=\"wp-image-7134\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.ipacktravel.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/YearnCafe-3.jpeg 750w, https:\/\/blog.ipacktravel.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/YearnCafe-3-300x232.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">For main dishes, the cafe offers Japanese-style rice bowls and Chinese-style sour-spicy dishes with \/ without knife-shaved noodle. There are various (French-style) baguettes and Chinese dumplings too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The Suan La Ban (\u9178\u8fa3\u62cc) is a crunchy sour-spicy dish with no staple \u2014 rice can be ordered separately. The dish is served with shredded chicken, sliced abalone mushroom, shredded Japanese cucumber and soybean sprouts tossed in flavourful sourish and mild-spicy sauce and accompanied by crunchy peanuts. It is amazing that, other than the shredded chicken, all other ingredients have different degrees of crunchiness. It is an interesting and delicious dish that is definitely a must-try.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"563\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.ipacktravel.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/YearnCafe-4.jpeg\" alt=\"Yearn Cafe: Suan La Ban (\u9178\u8fa3\u62cc)\" class=\"wp-image-7135\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.ipacktravel.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/YearnCafe-4.jpeg 750w, https:\/\/blog.ipacktravel.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/YearnCafe-4-300x225.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Yearn Cafe&#8217;s homemade cakes are displayed in a glass shelf at the bar counter.

The same tiny leaves on the cake seems to be for decorative purpose but it does have a unique taste when chewed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image alignwide size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"750\" height=\"563\" src=\"https:\/\/blog.ipacktravel.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/YearnCafe-6.jpeg\" alt=\"Yearn Cafe: Tiramisu\" class=\"wp-image-7137\" srcset=\"https:\/\/blog.ipacktravel.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/YearnCafe-6.jpeg 750w, https:\/\/blog.ipacktravel.com\/wp\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/06\/YearnCafe-6-300x225.jpeg 300w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">It will be really special to have a spread of different styles of Asian dishes on the table when dining at Yearn Cafe.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<script async src=\"https:\/\/pagead2.googlesyndication.com\/pagead\/js\/adsbygoogle.js?client=ca-pub-3229729538327243\"\n     crossorigin=\"anonymous\"><\/script>\n<!-- Malaysia --> \n<ins class=\"adsbygoogle\"\n     style=\"display:block; text-align:center; height:auto; overflow:hidden;\"\n     data-ad-layout=\"in-article\"\n     data-ad-format=\"fluid\"\n     data-ad-client=\"ca-pub-3229729538327243\"\n     data-ad-slot=\"2000894951\"><\/ins>\n<script>\n     (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({});\n<\/script>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Social Media:<\/strong><br><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/p\/Yearn-Cafe-100094737640469\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Facebook<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"1id74\"><strong>Address:<\/strong><br>773 Medan Koop, Jalan Bakek, 82000 Pontian, Johor, Malaysia<\/p>\n\n\n\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/maps\/d\/embed?mid=18bqadi3j1BTGjKbmTVs8HpujSRo&#038;ehbc=2E312F\" width=\"100%\" height=\"480\"><\/iframe>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\" id=\"6ikfo\"><strong>Opening Hours:<\/strong><br>11am to 9pm | Closed on Wednesday &amp; Thursday<br>* Last order at 8pm<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>How to Get There:<\/strong><br>Take BAS.MY J50 from Larkin Sentral or CW4 from Singapore and alight at New Dawn Hotel.
