New Yum Yum Cafe sits tucked along Lorong Pahlawan 7 in Sibu, offering a down-to-earth spot to settle into a local breakfast or lunch routine. This cafe leans into a menu deeply rooted in Sarawakian and Sibu comfort food, with standout choices like Kampua Mee in its dry white style and roti tisu taking center stage. It’s the kind of place people come to for familiar flavors done straightforwardly, where laksa and various noodle options act as steady anchors throughout the day.

The vibe here is lively and unpretentious — the seating is simple, often bustling with regulars and families who drop in for a quick but satisfying meal. Patience is a bit of a virtue, especially during peak hours when popular dishes like Kampua and roti tisu can take a while to arrive due to steady demand. It’s a spot that rewards morning early birds or early lunch crowds who want to avoid the wait.

Drinks lean towards the local side as well, with choices like teh o bing (iced black tea without milk) and a range of cooked traditional drinks rounding out the menu. While the cafe is a solid pick for a casual, quick breakfast or lunch fix, notes on cleanliness—particularly around the restrooms—suggest visitors might want to plan accordingly.

New Yum Yum is less polished than some newer cafes but makes up for it with genuine local flavors that longtime Sibu residents recognize and appreciate. Those who favor simple cafés focusing on authentic, hearty local dishes will feel right at home here. It feels like a spot shaped by daily routines rather than tourist expectations — a place where the comfort of familiar tastes outweighs fussiness.

Overall food is nice but toilet is dirty. They should improve the washroom n sink for handwashing. Like most of the shops here, the emphasis is not on cleanliness and comfort but $.

Many choices for drinks, especially cooked drink. Foods also varies with nice taste. The only weakness is wait Kampua and roti tisu for very long time because too many customers.

The food here is definitely YUM-YUM. Kampua is super good. I had mine with the sweet & sour pork. The wantons are filled with thick chunky meat. Don't forget the roti-canai, one of the best in Sibu. Very fluffy and flavorful.

One of the best Kampua and Laksa in town. The Kampua stall have improved their menu with more selection & clear pricing. The price is reasonable and food taste is great. However, restaurant need some effort to improve on their drinks and cleanliness. Overally, it is good experience and should have a try.
