History 1948 Cafe & Bistro - Mersing, Johor Darul Ta'zim

Howard

Fun, relaxed vibe with some fairly eclectic design choices. There are plenty of music references on the walls (posters and album covers, a mini stage) as well as nautical themes scattered throughout (a boat jutting from one wall, pirate imagery), and even a little Tiki vibe. However, it all kind of works. The staff are laid-back, but they were there whenever needed and super friendly. The food was hearty and went well with the beers. It would have been nice to have some draft choices, but still a fun place to relax.

Great pub! Balcony overlooks street! Food is good and priced reasonably. Great service! I would recommend. Good ambience.

Went here after our holiday due to the positive reviews. Enjoyed the food, but the portion is too small. We had pasta, pizza, wedges and chicken chop.

We decided to go to another place afterwards because we were too hungry. The food and the ambiance was nice though (as you can see in the pics). Not many staff were there, so we had to wait a long time for the food, especially chicken chop.

Hygiene and cleanliness of the bathroom can be improved.

Good food, nice size portion, good taste with a little spice
Staff didn’t speak much but were polite and helpful. Service was quick (though I was the only customer there)

Great cafe, great bistro. This could be the reason Mersing is alive and glorious. The vibes is really astonishing. The environment really suits with wasted youth. The designs looks nostalgic yet really lit.

The foods here are nice, typical but it had its own uniqueness. Taste of the provender are great. Bit oily thee. The libations are really really really freshened up my damn throat. I love it thee. I came here more than 6 times as I recalled cause I studied at Segamat.

The service is slow, but really friendly. Loved that! Price of foods and beverages are nice, affordable. It had been a great pleasure chilling here with bunch of my fellas here. Gonna come again soon!

I went there because the place has the highest reviews on Google around the area and is open till late!

The ambient is super cosy; I ordered a grilled chicken chop, virgin mojito, and sambal prawn rice but had to change to sambal prawn pizza because they ran out of rice and 100 plus. The taste was not as tasty as I anticipated. The portion was pretty small for the similar price I paid in KL. The mojito could be better. Next time, please ensure no seeds in the mojito😭 The service was super slow, even payment! So if you were hungry as me, I wouldn't recommend this place. The toilet is super old school, and it ran out of hand soap😭.

Also this place only takes cash and touch-and-go.

Ordered chicken ham aglio olio spaghetti and mushroom soup. Surprisingly, the foods is really good!!! Didn't manage to take the pizza photos. Pizza portion is only good enough for 1-2 persons. Place is not big, but it's a cosy cafe located on the first floor Mersing town area.
