Discover JON'S, a must-visit bakery in Lampung that’s more than just hype. This spot is a paradise for durian lovers, boasting legendary bread filled with authentic, fibrous durian pulp. Surprisingly, it also caters to the health-conscious with a dedicated section for delicious low-sugar, sugar-free, and dairy-free bread. With its chic, European-style decor perfect for hanging out, JON'S is the ideal place to find a souvenir that truly impresses your friends and family back home.
Every time I hear someone say, "If you don't visit XX, it's like you never came at all," my eyes almost roll into the back of my head 🙄. Which shop is making such a bold claim this time? So, while in Lampung, I just had to check out this popular bakery called JON'S to see what gives them the right to say that[1].
And... I ate my words.
A Paradise for Durian Lovers and the Fitness Crowd?
I was stunned the moment I walked in. With its gorgeous European-style decor[2], you'd think you'd stumbled into a small villa if you didn't know any better. You could totally Nongkrong here all afternoon. The ambiance is on point, so it's no wonder it's so popular among the local youth[3].
The variety of bread is enough to drive someone with decision paralysis crazy[4], but I went straight for the main event and tried the legendary durian bread for you guys!
Anjay! One bite and I was ready to give a standing ovation! This is definitely not that cheap durian flavoring; it's a real durian filling where you can taste the pulp and fibers[5]! The sweetness and aroma are perfectly balanced—rich without being overwhelming. Durian lovers, go for it!
What surprised me the most was how incredibly friendly this place is to health-conscious eaters. There's a dedicated section for low-sugar, sugar-free, and even dairy-free healthy bread[6], like sourdough, whole wheat cranberry... For all the fitness buffs and friends who have elders at home needing to control their sugar intake, you can finally stop chewing on tasteless bread. I'm moved to tears!
Let's Get Real
To be fair, the prices are indeed a tad more expensive than your average roadside bakery[7], but once you taste it, you'll know that with these ingredients and flavors, it's absolutely Mantap and worth every penny.
The staff's service is also great—professional and enthusiastic. They'll patiently introduce the different types of bread to you, with none of the arrogant attitude you sometimes find at trendy spots. I have to give them a thumbs up for that 👍.
