I was attracted by the cafe's decorations many years ago, and listed No.1 in my Most Favorite Cafe list. It's a Must visit place for me when I'm around Malacca.

The outdoor session of Geographer Cafe

The Cafe can be very pack & crowded during weekend, so we prefer to visit the cafe during weekday. There was a Solo performance while we were there, and he was excellent that evening! I took the chance to snap around the cafe and I'm really impressed with the antiques displays around and the cozy ambience.

After explored the first building, I continued to walked to the next building. The second building is more like a dining area instead of drinking place.

I couldn't step up the first floor in the second building that evening, because it said : "This session is close!". So I took the photo of the first floor from below...

It is a different concept compare with the first building, it's more quiet than the first building.

We had a jug of Tiger Draught Beer (MYR36.00) and enjoyed the night with the beautiful voice of Mr Burn from Geographer Cafe. Most of the customers there were foreigners and tourists from everywhere in the World. Beside Cozy and Comfortable, it was also A Friendly environment! That's the reason I like the cafe so much! Haha! They are many pubs and bistros around the area especially Jalan Hang Lekir, but we just prefer Geographer!

They do serving foods and we will plan to have our dinner here one day!
