8. Dotty’s Pastries and Coffees
OMG, I love this cafe! From its Instagramable interior and cosy environment to the pastries that are worth to die for! Personally, I’m head over heels for their salted egg yolk treats: you must try their Salted egg cronuts and Salted egg yolk croissant doughnuts! The salted egg cronuts are so good they disappear in an instant. And you can only purchase 4 cronuts per person.
Although this bakery is known for its pastries and choices of bread, Dotty’s also serves amazing breakfast, lunch and dinner. Try their delicious salted egg soft shell crab spaghetti or any of the soups or salads.
If you’re not doing anything this weekend, drop by at Dotty’s for quick brunch or afternoon tea time. Simply the best bakery in PJ!

9. The Loaf
*Updated as of 17th August 2019.
This bistro cum bakery offers Japanese-style bread, pastries, and savouries such as white sesame cookies, lemon cranberry cube cake, and soft toast. Prepared using high-quality products, mostly imported from Japan while other essential baking items are imported from Australia, Belgium, and France.
Since its first outlet opened in Langkawi in 2006, the bakery has been constantly gaining popularity and now there are more than ten outlets in Malaysia. I would totally recommend this bakery for breakfast as the bread and pastries are the freshest and the cafe itself smells just yummy.
P.S. My favourite is the cranberry cheese, perfect for a quick snack!
