Discover a hidden gem in Pluit, North Jakarta, perfect for digital nomads and pet parents! This spacious cafe is a work-from-cafe paradise with power outlets at nearly every seat. Bring your furry friends along, as this spot is completely pet-friendly, letting them roam indoors. Don't stress about parking; they offer a free valet service. With great food, a quiet vibe, and thoughtful amenities like a dedicated vaping room and even sanitary pads in the restroom, it’s a must-visit.
Seriously, if my friend hadn't shown me the way, I could have driven past this place a hundred times and never noticed it. It's hidden on the second floor of a building by the road in Pluit[1], the entrance is so low-key, I almost thought I was in the wrong place… But then I pushed the door open, and Anjay! It's a whole new world inside!
The space inside is ridiculously huge, with high ceilings, so it doesn't feel cramped at all. The best part is, almost every seat has a power outlet next to it! 💻 For digital nomads like us who need to pull out a laptop to reply to emails anytime, anywhere, this is basically heaven, right?![2] The whole environment has this really comfortable and quiet chill vibe. Everyone is either working quietly or chatting softly, not like a noisy, chaotic market at all.
I ordered the highly-praised Matcha Latte[3], and the texture was so smooth, not like that cloyingly sweet, artificial stuff. Since I was hungry, I also tried the Chicken Katsu Curry Rice[4]. The curry flavor was rich, and the chicken katsu was fried to a perfect crisp. It's definitely a filling portion for one person. They have a wide selection of croissants too. Next time, I'm planning to try the Pandan Kaya flavor.
As for the price, well, it's not super cheap, but it's definitely a case of"ada harga, ada rasa"[5]. A good cup of coffee paired with such a comfortable environment, I think it's worth it. The only thing to complain about is the pitifully few parking spots downstairs. Driving here can be a bit stressful.
