10. Bear Garden
Overall Ratings

Eclectic bar/ cafe where 50% of profits support wildlife conservation & animal welfare through Orangutan Project, Open from 10am serving great western food, Wide beer selection, good music, outdoor garden seating. Relaxed & family-friendly.
Reviewed By Moleseyboy
We tried out the Bear Garden, in part because of its eco-credentials and in part because our kids wanted a break from rice and noodles. Mixed opinion about the burgers: #1 son being underwhelmed (preferring the Granary burger to the Bear Garden burger) but #2 being quite happy! Both my wife and I ate the veggie burgers which were excellent.This place is quite a bit cheper than many of the other bars/cafes serving Western food, but still was twice as much as dinner at the Borneo Delight just down the road.NB this place is cash only, with the nearest cash machine a good 10 minute walk away...

The ribeye steak melts in the mouth, the salmon was flavourful and deliciously paired with sesame and almond flakes, the mushroom soup so good it warms the heart, the Waldorf salad started off the perfect dinner rounded off by the cosy and relaxing ambience. Service was prompt, courteous and attentive. Spot on!

This doesn't look great from the outside but once in, the staff are friendly and welcoming and the atmosphere is great. Staff looked like they were happy to be there. We had a couple of pizzas and service was quick, our drinks were good, and we paid by credit card which was no problem. We ate upstairs but there's also downstairs too. The air con was effective and bathrooms clean! The dessert looked good but we were too full to eat any.

Who would have thought you could come across a gem like this in Borneo! Well the Drunken food (beef and chicken sausages) was awesome as too were the Swedish meatballs. Great service and a relaxed atmosphere. A great discovery. I will eat here again next time in Kuching.

The Granary is an excellent restaurant with excellent, well trained staff.. We were there for dinner and opted for a sharing platter, which was beautifully prepared and very tasty...and can be highly recommended! The setting is stunning...a large ex-commercial building, which has been expertly decorated. There is live music in the evening, which is not too loud or obtrusive, and adds to the dining experiencing.Dear Seatroutfisher-1,Thank you very much for sharing your comments with us, we are so happy you had a great time at The Granary. Our kitchen team create and bake almost all of our menu items from scratch everyday.

One of the best bar in Kuching. Both Andy and Grace are very friendly and will make sure you feel at home. The price for their beers is very cheap and they do serve traditional drinks such as langkau and tuak a must try when you're in Sarawak. A must visit if you are in Kuching and they have a beautiful bar counter made out of Borneo iron wood.Hi Watson, thank you so much for your kind review! We all really appreciate you taking the time. It is especially relevant as we tend to think of TripAdvisor in terms of our international guests, but you show us that locals use it too. Thanks again bro, hope we see you again soon

We went to this restaurant as some friends had recommended it and it rated well on TripAdvisor. We went on Saturday night and it was quite crowded. They have an indoor area and a great outside terrace. We had my Mum with us so we ordered the Iberico board to share for starter. Everything on it was fresh and really tasty. Hubby and Mum had the Barramundi fillet while i had the Greek salad. The food was delicious and we topped it off with a very nice bottle of wine. The food was great and the value for money was excellent.We were so happy with the meal we went back the following night and had pizza's and salad. Again, very tasty and great produce. The Serawak feta is a must.The owner was lovely and happy to explain anything we wanted to know.Highly recommend this restaurant if you are in Kuching.
