Butter Kaya Kopitiam: Authentic Kopitiam Flavors with a Modern Twist. | The name Butter Kaya Kopitiam itself embodies the spirit of Malaysia, and what makes it even more special is its commitment to using local ingredients in almost all of its dishes. 

While the menu features classic kopitiam favorites, Butter Kaya adds a modern touch to its dishes, making them even more appealing to today’s food lovers.

Currently, Butter Kaya Kopitiam has four outlets:
