KLites love their coffee, whether it\u2019s an inky dark kopi\u2019o or a fragrant, crema-topped shot of espresso. Third wave coffee took the city by storm a few years ago, and we\u2019re still reaping the benefits, with excellent coffee shops dotted all over KL, from serious, specialist spaces to warm and inviting coffee houses. These are some of the best coffee shops in KL, great for an urgent caffeine fix or just a lazy Sunday morning.<\/span><\/p>\n

 <\/p>\n

Ask the specialists
\n<\/span><\/strong>
\nThrow a stone in KL and you\u2019ll hit a cafe professing to serve artisanal coffee \u2014 these guys though, are the real masters. A trip to a <\/span>Bean Brothers<\/b> coffee bar is not for the easily intimidated; the deliberately stark decor highlights the bar\u2019s specialist coffee equipment. The brand comes from Korea, and wants to explore the hundreds of different bean flavours and profiles from all over the world, not just the most well-known ones. Every month the joint showcases a different single origin bean, served espresso-style or drip coffee-style.<\/span><\/p>\n
