    Super long queue for the famous cendol in Penang. RM2.90 per bowl, you may sit in the coffee shop few feet down the road, they'll deliver it to you hassle free. Taste wise, prefer Melaka's cendol 😊

    The laksa stall in the kopitiam now (updated, February) is not what you tasted previously. You can do comparison and you will definitely taste the huge different! See my previous tips ;)

    Name says it all. Don’t be dissuaded by the queue though, it moves very quickly. Be warned that it can get messy however, so keep wet wipes handy. Also, proper parking is available around the corner

    The Chendul here is definitely the best in Penang. Ais Kacang here is good too. It's always crowded on weekends and holidays. Follow the typical Malaysian style, stand and eat in front of the stall!

    One of the famous chendol in Penang! It's so crowded and the queue is looong here during weekend that u hardly find a seat. But eating while standing also not bad tho hehehe

    The infamous cendol is very yummy!! RM2.50, and expect to stand by the roadside to devour your dessert; fast service despite the huge crowd. Just join the queue.

    This blue bowl chendol is really good bcos it's Gula is fragrant and not that sweet. Teamed with the coconut milk, it's a very lemak combination.

    Awesome cold coconut green jelly dessert drink in a bowl. Delicious and may not be 100% hygienic but we still love this. Fastest serving i have ever seen. Love these.

    This is the blue bowl cendol stall. If you tasted orange bowl cendol, you will definitely go for the orange bowl stall. Only if you tried, you will know why i said so.

    I grew up with cendol (as we called it in Indonesia). Having the chendul here was a nice down-the-memory-lane experience! I prefer having it without red bean, just like the good old days! Pretty cool!

    They say there's a war between the two Cendol stalls, honestly couldn't tell the difference. Try both to see what you think. It's a good food item, though. Sweet and cool.

    Cendol can be ordered from the stall outside to be delivered into Joo Hooi Coffeeshop. Just pay a minimal surcharge and u can enjoy it sitting down. Very long queue.

    Been having this since I was a toddler, am surprised to see what it has become. It's still as good as I remembered! For some reason the chendol tastes better when there's a queue, less sweet. 😂

    Go try the one with the orange bowl cendol! I tried both but i still prefer the cendol's of their opposite stall.

    Cendol can't get any better than this. One portion may not be enough if you're super craving for Cendol. They also have to-go cup (like bubble tea cup)

    Cendol here is always a good idea and its worth the long queue. Also you can find a place to seat inside rather than standing but be quick

    Nothing better on a hot sweltering day than an ice cold bowl of chendol. There are now seats at the green shophouse (uncle will direct you there) but standing by the roadside to eat has more feel!

    Don't mistake Mr Tans competitor across the road, you can tell, there is no Q, and, is 10sen cheaper. Once you buy your chendol, just walk down a few shoplots to his shop, air conditioned no xtra $.

    Great cendol. But be ready to carry the order to your own table because they are that busy.

    R$3.20 chendol - it’s ok . No queue on a wed afternoon . Sit in the Coffeeshop, and chendol will be delivered to u tog w Penang laksa , rojak or other food. Rojak at $8 is steep. $6 Laksa is decent

    I came here 2 days ago during a weekday. The taste was a lot stronger and tastier when the store is less busy. So try to come during non-peak times like weekday afternoons.

    Nice chendul at road side with no place to sit. There is a coffee shop beside it, but it charge rm0.50 each bowl of chendul u bring in. Still...worth it.

    Worth the queue and wait. I love the cendol here. It's to die for, but watch out of cars if you are eating while standing by the lane.

    These guys certainly work very fast to serve their cendol to people waiting in long queue. Taste great but can get a bit inconsistent.

    Long queues for the chendol. Like the slightly burnt caramel taste of the gula melaka.

    As of Feb 2019, the quality was ok ok. The green cendol was frozen and shaved ice was not smooth. Tasted better Cendol somewhere else. Just to experience roadside Cendol in Penang, worth to try.

    You'll see two stalls along the road. The one on your right is the right one! Must try especially during hot weather.

    May buy and sit inside a corner shop further down a bit without charges. The small corner shop selling laksa and rojak and a lot of photos on wall.May try their laksa but not their rojak (expensive!).

    Rojak with cuttlefish, mango, sengkuang, cucumber and pineapple. Yum! Would've been perfect if I just ordered my fave vege/fruits
