Public Cafe, Gurney Drive

Public Cafe, Gurney Drive, Penang (1 January 2017)


Public Cafe (GPS: 5.43244, 100.31706) is one of the Chinese coffee shops along Gurney Drive, Penang. We ended up at Public Cafe on 20 July 2013 because I have just visited Song River Cafe, where I wanted to try out the Song River Cafe roti babi, but my wife wanted a soupy dish. We finally found the seafood porridge at Public Cafe. In addition to seafood porridge, Public Cafe also has Hokkien Mee, Lor Mee, Lor Bak and cooked-to-order Chinese dishes at Loke Sok Seafood stall. (We had the seafood porridge of Public Cafe at home; it turned out to be quite nice, and at RM5 with two reasonably large prawns, not too expensive.)

Although we couldn't find a single parking space along Gurney Drive outside the coffee shop (we had to park at Kelawei Road), there was quite a number of empty tables at Public Cafe when we were there. Business appeared to have slowed down on this stretch of Gurney Drive.
