Welcome to Big Head Cafe 大头茶室, a hidden gem nestled in the serene neighborhood of Kuching, Sarawak. This charming café is not just a place to grab a quick bite; it's a delightful culinary experience that will tantalize your taste buds.

The essence of Big Head Cafe lies in its unique café offerings, particularly its delightful ice cream floats that are perfect for anyone looking to sweeten their day. Among its signature treats is the Big Head Special, a Milo Dinosaur Ice Cream Float featuring creamy Milo ice cream perched atop fizzy soda, truly a treat for both the eyes and the palate at just MYR 10.30. Another must-try is the Yuanyang Ice Cream Float, which combines the best of both worlds—coffee and tea—and is topped with a generous scoop of ice cream for MYR 8.80. If you’re in the mood for something refreshing, the Hainan Teh Ice Cream Float at MYR 7.40 is a perfect blend of creamy sweetness and refreshing Hainan tea.

The café also boasts an enticing selection of beverages and snacks that add to its charm. Indulge in the Milo Dinosaur, a rich chocolate malt drink crowned with a mountain of scrumptious chocolate for only MYR 7.40, or sip on the refreshing Lemon Tea Peng, a zesty lemon-infused treat priced at MYR 5.90. For those looking to munch, their Chicken Ham & Cheese Toast and Kaya Butter Toast offer a delightful savoriness, perfect for breakfast or a light snack.

As you step into Big Head Cafe, you’ll immediately feel the welcoming atmosphere. The décor is a delightful blend of modern and cozy, creating an inviting space to relax, enjoy your food, and catch up with friends.

One enthusiastic patron, Melisa Chong, mentions in her review, "Everything is good! The place is good and clean... If you come to Kuching, please stop by here! No regret!"

While the café may be located in a housing area with limited parking, many customers agree that the delightful flavors and atmosphere are well worth the visit.

The café offers a wide range of options—make sure to come early if you’re craving their popular noodles, as they tend to sell out quickly!

1st time here after seeing recommendation on social media. Located in a housing area, serves breakfast and lunch till 3pm. Parking is rather limited because of its location. Decor is great, service is okay, waiting time is also okay. Food tastes good but portion can be bigger. Be sure to come before 12pm if you want to order the noodles here, they sell out fast. Pros - Decorations 5 - Food tastes good - Relatively short waiting time - Clean Cons - Limited parking - Food portion can be larger - Noodle dishes (Mee siam, Laksa) runs out too early Overall, good place to have breakfast / lunch if you're in the area. Greatly decorated with many vintage elements to bring you down memory lane.

Mee siam, taste good. Food is good taste, only the cheese rice too much sauce. Half boiled egg was just right Staff need be more attentive to customer.
