Ome by Spacebar, Penang’s Hidden Gem for Serious Coffee Lovers

#penangspots Tucked in a quiet alley of George Town, Ome by Spacebar Coffee is a minimalist haven that feels like home literally, since “Ome” is short for “home.” Housed in a heritage shophouse, the café blends exposed brick walls, moss gardens, and natural light to create a serene, artful space. It’s not just a coffee stop it’s a curated experience, often featuring local art exhibitions and a vibe that invites you to slow down and savor. Specialty coffee is the star here, with espresso-based drinks, cold nitros, and hand-poured brews that cater to true aficionados. The olive oil zucchini bread, toasted and served with sea salt and creme fraiche, is a cult favorite among regulars. With no hot kitchen, the focus is on quality over quantity every pastry and pour is crafted with care. Ome isn’t just one of Penang’s best cafes it’s one of the world’s top 100, and it earns that title with quiet confidence.
