Gachakohi started as a gacha-style café with a fun twist on the typical coffee shop, where customers use tokens to spin for surprise drinks or treats. The café’s creative concept blends café culture with playful collectable vibes that are loved by locals and visitors alike, and it has become one of the leading trading card shops in the Klang Valley.
Gachakohi
Despite the catchy name, Gachakohi is more than just drinks and desserts, as it might suggest. The current owners (Atlas Gamers) took over the place and decided to maintain the name of the business, blending it with a trading card game concept shop. It has quickly become one of the growing TCG-friendly hangouts in the Klang Valley, part of a trend where cafés and hobby shops support card game communities.
