#PenangTravel Narrow Marrow
A quiet cafe that seems to be open for people with a light heart.
No fancy menus, no flashy props — but there are some things that make us want to sit here for a long time without any reason.
🕰️ Opening hours
• Open Wednesday–Sunday: 10:00–18:00
• Closed Monday–Tuesday
⏳ Best time:
• Before noon — The shop is still empty, soft light, good for taking pictures
• Late afternoon — Suitable for just sitting and listening to music, letting your mind wander
⸻
🏡 Atmosphere
• The shop is hidden in an old building in George Town — if you don't intend to, you might walk past it
• The decoration is like a house of a junk collector But everything is arranged in a rhythmic manner.
• Wooden tables, metal chairs, old books, sepia photos — It feels like you’re in a writer’s room.
• Soft old music, perfect for reading or writing without being disturbed.
⸻
☕ Must-try menu items
• Iced Latte — The milk aroma doesn’t overpower the coffee, the taste is straightforward, no additives.
• Chai Latte — Light spices, warm scent, perfect for lonely people.
• Tiramisu — Not too sweet, with a little alcohol to make you feel that the memories are still there.
• Jackfruit cake — It sounds strange, but when you chew it, it feels like someone made a cake for us to eat at home.
⸻
📍 Location
• Jalan Hutton, George Town, Penang
🚶♂️ Easy to get to on foot, near the art district.
🚗 No specific parking — Walking is the best.
⸻
🌿 Who is this place suitable for?
1. People who are not in a hurry
2. People who want to find a quiet place to organize their hearts
3. People who can be with their own thoughts without having to have a conversation
4. People who believe that "just good coffee and a wooden table" is enough for one day
⸻
⚠️ Know this first
• No plugs, no Wi-Fi — Intending to let us stay in the present
• Few seats — It's easy to get a table if you come alone
• The shop is not suitable for people who like the hustle and bustle or want instant convenience
⸻
✅ Conclusion
Narrow Marrow is not just a cafe, but it is a "free space" for anyone who wants to breathe quietly.
We may not say much here... but our hearts may talk to ourselves more 🖤
