103 Coffee - Chow Kit

103 Coffee’s Chow Kit outpost sits at 9, Jalan Yap Ah Shak and reflects a roaster-cafe concept built around specialty coffee rather than broad café trends.[1][3] Founded in 2014, the company says it was established with the aim of creating a café “forever grounded to specialty coffee,” and describes itself as one of Malaysia’s early specialty-coffee pioneers.[3] Its retail selection shows a focus on single-origin and competition-lot coffees, including Ethiopia Guji Shakisso, Honduras San Vicente Marcos Sabillon, and Brazil Sítio Santa Fé COE 2025.[3] The Chow Kit location fits that profile: a precise, coffee-led space in central Kuala Lumpur with a menu that extends into mocktails and food, but keeps the bean program at the center.[1]
