The Messengers by JWC: A Calm Coffee Escape in the Heart of Starhill

Hidden inside Eslite Bookstore at The Starhill, The Messengers by JWC is a cozy gem for those who love their coffee with a side of calm. The moment you step in, the minimalist design and soft ambiance set the tone for a peaceful break from the city’s buzz. The café focuses on quality over quantity — serving a curated range of coffee made with single-origin beans, including some locally sourced from Johor. The flavors are clean, nuanced, and perfect for slow sipping. If you’re feeling adventurous, they also offer creative coffee-based drinks, including some with a twist of alcohol for a unique blend of café and bar vibes. What makes it special is the setting — surrounded by books, soft lighting, and a view of the stylish Starhill concourse. It’s an ideal spot to read, work, or just enjoy a thoughtful pause. While the prices are on the higher side, the experience and quality make it feel worth the splurge for a moment of quiet luxury in the middle of Bukit Bintang.
