Discover a next-level cafe in Banjarmasin where you can hang out all day for just 15k! This massive spot, feeling more like a public square, is perfect for any occasion, from working on your laptop to gossiping with friends. While it gets super crowded, the vibe is cool and modern. Don't miss their signature Kopi Susu and the surprisingly delicious, generously portioned Rice Bowl. With ample parking, it's the ultimate, budget-friendly hangout destination.
Came to Banjarmasin to see a friend this weekend and got dragged to this coffee shop. I was totally stunned… This isn't a coffee shop, it's practically a public square! It was packed with people inside and out, from the air-conditioned indoor area and the garden to the rooftop, every seat was taken[1]. Anjay, do the local young people not have to work? 🤣
Jujurly (to be honest), the place is ridiculously huge[2]. The decor has this clean, modern vibe, and even though it was crowded, the AC was blasting, so it didn't feel stuffy at all. There are so many seating options it's overwhelming for someone indecisive. Whether you want to gossip with your besties or bring a laptop to work, you can always find the right spot.
I came for their Kopi Susu, which is supposedly the best in town[3]. It's only 15-20k a cup, a price that takes you back ten years. As for the taste, the milk and coffee are well-balanced, but it was a bit too sweet for me. For my friends who can't handle too much sweetness, remember to say "kurang gula" (less sugar) when you order![4] I didn't have high expectations for the food at a coffee shop, but I was blown away by the Rice Bowl my friend insisted I order. The portion is huge, enough to make even a guy feel stuffed[5], and the taste is on point too. And that Donat donut, it was soft and not greasy, truly Mantap![6]
But, I have to be honest, I have a small complaint. Maybe they were too busy, but one of the cashiers had a bit of a sour face and was pretty unresponsive when I asked about the menu[7]. So… there's room for improvement in the service department, hope the owner sees this.
