"Visited The Fern and had a great meal. The matcha latte was nice, and the smoked salmon scallion cheese, smoked duck carbonara were all very good. Nice ambience, seating space is a little limited."

"The Fern in Kuching is such a charming spot, perfect for a quiet escape and some me-time. I tried the coffee-misu—coffee topped with cheese foam—and it was a delightful surprise, rich and smooth with just the right balance. The environment is cozy and calming, making it a wonderful place to slow down and enjoy a good cup. A gem of a cafe, that I’d happily return to for both the drinks (perhaps the cakes?) and the atmosphere."

"After dinner at Jak Ma’an we walked back to The Warerfront Hotel. Passed by The Fern and decided to try the dessert and coffee. Hmm.. coffee not bad. The chocolate sponge cake pun ok. The restaurant is flled with monstera plants. Sihat-sihat semua the monstera. During the day the place looks like an art shop. Cool chill vibe. Boleh datang lagi."

"Nice tea and coffee. Art classes and painting. Something a bit different. One massive downside was they were playing Coldplay. Not one song, the entire back catalogue"
