Check out the buzz around PIK's new Korean-style teddy bear café! This spot boasts a super cute, Instagram-worthy aesthetic and a highly recommended Tiramisu Croffle. However, this honest review also reveals its major drawback: the space is extremely small and gets very crowded. Find out the best times to visit, what to order (and what to avoid!), and tips for getting that perfect photo in this popular but pint-sized destination.
Girls, have you also been seeing this Korean-style teddy bear café on PIK Golf Island all over your feed recently? It's filled with super cute teddy bear elements everywhere, making it feel like you can pretend you're on the streets of Seoul with just a few casual snaps. As a veteran Jakarta Nongkrong enthusiast, of course I had to check it out right away!
The moment I walked in, I was truly hit by the cuteness. The whole shop isn't big, but from the decor to the ornaments, it's all that Korean-style, Instagrammable vibe that totally captures a girl's heart, maxing out the atmosphere. I got straight to the point and ordered their super hyped Tiramisu Croffle [1] and a scone (Scones).
Let me give you the verdict first: The Croffle is seriously Mantap! The outside is crispy, while the inside has the chewy texture of a waffle. The tiramisu cream on top has just the right amount of sweetness, not cloying at all, and the slight bitterness of the coffee provides the perfect balance. After one bite, only two words came to my mind: Get it! But… that scone [2] was a bit Anjay… It might have been overheated, as it was dry and hard when it arrived. I could even taste a slight burnt bitterness, which was a little disappointing.
⚠️Real Talk Time (Must-Read!)
Alright, enough with the praise, it's time for the truth. The biggest drawback of this place is—it's way, way, way too small! [3] It's seriously tiny, like the size of your palm. I'd guess it can fit 10 people at most. The seats are packed super close together, and if it's full, it feels like it's hard to even turn around. Trying to Chill comfortably is basically impossible. If you're planning a small tea party with your girlfriends, this place probably isn't it.
A Guide to Visiting and Avoiding Pitfalls
So, here's a summary for the girls who want to check it out:
- Who is it for?: Someone who wants a quick solo dessert, or couples on a date looking for a cute backdrop for photos. Definitely not suitable for gatherings of more than 3 people [4].
- What to order?: Order the Tiramisu Croffle [5] without hesitation, you absolutely can't go wrong! As for the other items… you can try them at your own risk, but I don't recommend the scone.
- When to go?: You must, absolutely, definitely go during off-peak hours! Otherwise, you might not even find a seat, and your experience will be greatly diminished.
- Photo tips: Since the space is small, make good use of the little corners by the entrance or the counter. Use close-up shots for food and portraits to avoid the crowded surroundings, and the photos will turn out much better.
