Discover Wheels Coffee, the bustling cafe located right above Uniqlo in Bandung! This spot is famous for its outrageously large portions that offer incredible value for money. Don't miss their signature Wheels Tender steak pasta or the unique Klepon Cake. With its spacious industrial design and amazing natural light, it's a perfect place for a lively meal with friends. Just be prepared for a crowd, as this popular hangout is always buzzing with energy and happy diners.
Girls, let me give you a piece of advice: on weekends, definitely don't come to this Wheels Coffee in Bandung! It's so crowded, Anjay 🤯, you'll be queuing until your legs give out[1]. I was thinking at the time, how magical could a cafe located above Uniqlo possibly be? But after the first sip... okay, I was wrong, the wait was worth it!
Once inside, the space is truly huge, with industrial design paired with a massive glass roof, the lighting is absolutely amazing, perfect for photos. But because it's so popular, the whole environment is basically a huge Nongkrong scene, you basically have to shout to talk🗣️, so if you want to work quietly, you can cross this one off your list.
But that's not the main point, the main point is the food!
Their signature steak pasta Wheels Tender[2] is truly Mantap! The mushroom sauce is incredibly rich, and the steak is perfectly tender. Dessert lovers, don't miss the Klepon Cake[3], they've put the soul of traditional Indonesian snacks into a cake, I give this creativity full marks! For coffee, I ordered a Canella Coffee[4], it's so smooth it feels like drinking ice cream, the cinnamon aroma goes straight to your head, it's perfect for cutting through richness after a meal.
But the most outrageous thing is their portion sizes, when one dish was served, all of us were stunned, the plate was bigger than our faces, definitely enough to fill 2-3 people until they burst[5]. They've absolutely nailed the value for money!
Of course, I have to mention the downsides too. Because there are so many people, the whole scene is a bit chaotic[6], the staff are running around frantically, if you want to add an order, you'll have to rely on luck. Also, during peak dining hours, there might be a 2-hour time limit[7], so girls who want to Chill for an afternoon should take note.
Exclusive Stress-Free Guide
Here are some tips to avoid pitfalls for my girls who are planning to check it out, quick, grab your little notebook and write them down:
- Parking: Parking spots are extremely scarce! Don't wait foolishly at the entrance, just park your car at the POS Indonesia building across the street and walk over[8], it'll save you a lot of hassle.
- Time: Either come on a weekday, or be prepared to queue for 30-45 minutes. Weekend mealtimes are the disaster zone.
- Ordering: Don't be greedy when ordering, start with a few dishes to share, and add more if it's not enough. Otherwise, you'll really be packing leftovers until your hands ache!
- Saving Money: They offer free drinking water, which is a huge plus! You can save a good amount on drinks.
- Signature Wheels Tender Steak Pasta: rich mushroom sauce, perfectly tender steak – pure bliss[1]!
- Creative Klepon Cake[2] perfectly blends traditional Indonesian pastry soul into a cake. A dessert lover's dream!
- Portions are HUGE! Plates are bigger than your face, easily stuffing 2-3 people[3]. Talk about value!
