Old Town White Coffee has been operating in Malaysia since 1958, boasting 82 locations nationwide. Their inaugural outlet in Singapore can be found at East Coast Park; it appears to be any standard cafe with marble tables, wooden chairs and their iconic cups printed with green designs. But what truly sets Old Town White Coffee apart is their commitment to sustainability; in addition to using fully recyclable packaging they also adhere to animal welfare policies with cage-free chickens as part of their animal welfare policy.

And they were particularly offended by an allegedly racist statement made by a Cabinet minister who encouraged Malays to boycott Chinese businesses because they are “anti-Islam”. Matters escalated further when Ismail Sabri was linked with Perak DAP adviser Datuk Ngeh Koo Ham, who claimed shares in Old Town White Coffee cafe franchise and is notoriously anti-Malay.

Old Town White’s chairman has assured all their customers that their cafes are indeed halal despite recent controversy, in an official statement released this evening. He stated that this chain is not associated with any political party or politician and their halal certification is carried out by Department of Islamic Development Malaysia (Jakim). Their certification process involves checking equipment, ingredients, suppliers, cleaning procedures and central kitchens at each outlet they service in Malaysia and worldwide.

Restaurant is dedicated to offering their customers high-quality products at affordable prices with traditional Ipoh coffee shop charm. Their menu features delicacies like prawn mee and curry chicken as well as rice and noodles options; therefore making this establishment highly favored among both young and older crowd. Its cozy ambiance and convenient location makes this spot popular with both young and older patrons.
