i believe southern jakarta will never lack of good coffee shop, in terms of their coffee and their cafe looks. one of the newer ones is this shop. With a glass house to extend their space plus more lighting, made this cafe quite lively and instagramable. If you're an insta hunter, this is the place to explore. now into what they sell. Coffee, spot on. not leaving bad after taste and cute mug is good enough for me and not acidic. for the small bites, i tried the beng beng brownies and regal pie. both of them are nice. its just if you sweet stuff, beng beng brownies is the sweeter ones and quite sticky. Give it a try and enjoy it.

Their complex can be consider a small one because when other tenants open/workin then the parking space is gone a.k.a full. So gonna be harder to reach here when that time come.
Their ruko itself is quite tight but they cleverly add a tatami style for larger packs of people inside.

Unfortunately, their kitchen was close due to private order as i wanna try their nanban chicken that some said popular for this place so i just ordered a capp and croissant to start my morning. I must say it was fragrant and well balanced and to no surprise they used brazil and java blends which is a classic option for a balance body of coffee.
The catchy part was the cups. They use blue tone kind of cup that somehow becomes their identity. Good choice. I will return here for sure to get that meal and close it with ice cream which is another popular things in here.

who would have thought that old skool donut will rise again to its glory. well this place make a twist of it with nutella added. yes nutella donut. It is so popular that when i was there, i kept on hearing people order it every time they order coffee or other drinks. After i had a bite, then i knew why. the flavour is still old skool dough but with generous nutella inside. i know it sounds very guilty but pleasuring. They also want to popularize their ice coffee which for me still not better than the hot "next door neighbour" coffee (personal opinion of course) but their hot coffee was nicer combine with the donut.

They actually "sell" themself as a coworking space so if you're looking for a meeting place you can use it and just by buying their drinks but maybe you can call them first just to be save for availability wise as their space quite packed.

i started to know this cafe was from their insta feed. all the food or drinks look so distinctive and was from a different point of view. I managed to visit them briefly after i happen in gading area. with their cocoa drink as one of their signature, i ordered one and wasn't dissapoint one and i was happy i ordered that over coffee. another popular choice was earl grey ice cream but at that time they still remaking it i haven't give it a try. If you like their tin mug, you can buy it too which i find it interesting and old skool look. next time, i'll definitely try that ice cream and their foods. 

nice looking setup i must say on my first impression especially on their 2nd floor. lots of insta friendly corners and spots but of course they balanced it with a nice cup of coffee. i asked for the classic capp which they gave me with full body and excellent foam, but without a latte art. none the less i still enjoyed being there and sipping the coffee. 

to accompany me also a lime tart, that has a very nice taste and went well with my drink. This is 1 cafe in the west area that made me want to take pics again and again while sipping coffee.

well, this is a place where you wouldn't get hungry. they served pastries until heavy food combined with coffee and other beverages that quite interesting (by looking at their IG). the place itself i wouldn't call it big but still comfy. with container stacked up, it becomes the "it" place to hang out in either north or west area (coulnd't tell the boundaries). 

the coffee still consider nice, with capp that has nice form and body. tried their pastries as well and i must say, i didn;t have to eat lunch after that .
overall, it was a nice experience but as a morning person, they open up not from morning on weekdays which made me hard to get here during that time.

its not hard to find this place with a comfy parking space (that is if not full house of course). Meals and coffee are of course their offering, and i quite like having breakfast here. they open up from early morning, and serves well coffee. for meals, i like the french toast with bacon. its something savory but yet sweet with strawberry combo.
my wife also had their big brekky which quite hefty and gave quite a kick until late afternoon to her stomach (in a good way). another plus point is, its just a stone away from our place so easy to reach..

they are actually a subscription based coffee supplier but they have this new joint so customer like me (who can't really brew yet) can enjoy their coffee on spot. i must say to reach here, i had to drive thru some small roads but when i saw this place, its really open and spacious. Worth the journey to here.
the coffee and pastries they served was on point to quench our need for coffee and i must say a lot of guest came here to work or have meetings so more like a workspace and on not so hot day, we can sit around their small greeneries like doing picnic.. good idea to use their space as long as it doesn't rain.
