Scenic Dining Experience on Penang Hill

Just had lunch here, and the whole experience was lovely. The dining area is outdoors, allowing you to enjoy your meal while taking in the serene forest surroundings. Currently, there’s no direct line to the café staff, the contact number connects to the staff at The Habitat. If you’d rather not walk, you can call to arrange a free buggy ride from the roundabout to the restaurant.

While I found the main dishes to be average, the beverages and desserts, especially the vegan cakes, were absolutely heavenly. The food is good, the atmosphere is great, but it’s on the pricier side. That said, this spot is definitely worth a visit, especially given its location on Penang Hill.

Lovely Vegan Cafe

This little cafe is located within the gift shop building at the back entrance of the Habitat, outside of the ticketed area. If you enter Habitat from the entrance closest to the funicular and walk right the way through, you will find this when you exit through the turnstile, before taking the shuttle back to the funicular.

There are a few mains, plus hot/iced drinks, some small snacks, cake, and individual pots of ice cream, all vegan.
We each had a curry puff. The filling was well seasoned and fairly generous, and the pastry was good and flaky. It felt like it had just been heated up in a microwave because the pastry was a bit soggy rather than nice and crisp. But it was good, and I'd definitely have it again.

We also tried a slice of cake each, I got carrot and walnut and my partner had black forest. Both slices were huge, we were thrilled! The black forest cake was quite moist and chocolatey, with good amounts of cream and fruit. The carrot cake was really beautifully spiced and light.

We also got a couple of iced chocolate milks, which were not too sweet and very refreshing on a hot day.

It was a really welcome spot when we emerged from our walk, highly recommended if you're going to Habitat.

Nice place

Tired after hiking and walking on Penang's Hill?
You will meet a vegan place selling salty and sweet things..
We tried just one of their cakes, and it was what we needed to go on walking!

Pleasant surprise

Such a pleasant surprise to find this up Penang Hill. Meals, cakes and drinks all vegan.
Prices are fairly high as to be expected at a place like this.
The carrot and walnut cake was delicious.

Pros: Completely vegan

Great vegan cafe

This was such a great surprise to find this place! Located at the end of The Habitat on top of penang hill, this cafe is a great affordable cafe with a great range of options. It’s inside the gift shop as well.

All vegan deliciousness!

Super unexpected to find a completely plant-based restaurant up at Penang Hill! From savory dishes to snacks and vegan cakes - they got it all! The burgerless burger was delicious but my highlight was definitely the cake! Fluffy, moist, flavorful, exactly what you want. Enjoy the atmosphere, fuel up and continue exploring Penang Hill!

Pros: All vegan , Great atmosphere

Lecker und vegan auf dem Penang Hill

Nicht nur ist das Habitat absolut einen Ausflug wert: man läuft über Hängebrücken und Baumwipfelpfade durch ein Regenwaldgebiet, dass durch das Habitat-Team gehegt und gepflegt wird. Am Ende der Wanderwege kommt man in das nachhaltige Outlet Kommune welches auch ein Restaurant beherbergt. Service und Essen waren bestens. Preis Leistung super fair.

Pros: Aussicht auf den Regenwald , Alles vegan (außer das Eis), Netter Service

Cons: Das Durian-Eis aus der Eistruhe war nicht vegan
