Ready for a challenge? 3G COFFEE in Tangerang offers a breathtaking rooftop sunset view, but you'll have to conquer a five-story climb to earn it! This hidden gem provides a spacious, chill atmosphere perfect for hanging out with friends. While the food can be a gamble, the stunning city skyline at dusk makes the trek worthwhile. Just be sure to wear comfortable shoes—the million-dollar view is worth every step, but there's no elevator
Every time a friend comes to Tangerang and asks me if there's a great spot to Nongkrong and watch the sunset, I'm always a bit hesitant about whether to recommend this place, 3G COFFEE.
How should I put it, the view is truly Mantap, but my friends who aren't super fit might just be ready to call it quits on the spot...
A View You Have to "Climb a Mountain" For
This coffee shop is hidden really well, on the top floor of a building, and you have to huff and puff your way up four or five floors to get there[1]. The stairs are also a bit narrow, and every time I climb them, I start questioning my life choices, thinking, the owner has some serious personality, Anjay!
But! The moment you push open the rooftop door, it's like a whole new world opens up. The whole space is super spacious and clean[2], and when the wind blows, you instantly Chill out. Find a spot near the edge, watch the Tangerang city skyline slowly turn orange-gold from the sunset, and the exhaustion from climbing the stairs just disappears. Totally worth it! It's definitely a great place for friends to hang out and chat.
As for the Taste... It's a Game of Chance
To be honest, people mostly come here for the ambiance. The coffee is just standard, nothing special but not bad either. As for the food, the reviews are quite polarized. Some say it's not bad, but the sambal chicken I ordered last time, the chicken was really a bit tough, and the flavor was pretty unremarkable[3]. It's a bit of a shame, given the million-dollar view.
The portions are quite generous, though, matching the price[4].
Real Talk & Guide to Avoiding Pitfalls
OK, as usual, let's get real.
First, the staff might be a bit slow to warm up. Sometimes they seem cool and don't smile much, so don't take it to heart[5].
Second, while the prices are standard for a coffee shop, considering the taste of some dishes, I can only say you're mostly paying for the ambiance.
Lastly, and most importantly, Girls, please think twice before wearing high heels! And if you're with the elderly, children, or friends with mobility issues, definitely don't come! This place is really not friendly for them; it's all stairs and no elevator[6]!
