Looking for a new hangout spot in Lampung beyond the usual malls? Discover Faste Coffee, a three-story cafe with a stunning rooftop that offers breathtaking city light views.

With its cool vibe and affordable prices, this is the new go-to destination for a memorable night out.
Every time I come to Lampung, I always feel like there's a lack of proper places to Nongkrong, until my lokal friend dragged me to this place, Faste Coffee. Whoa, a three-story standalone building, and it even has a rooftop. I knew it was something special at first glance.
The evening is when it truly shines, the vibe is Mantap!
To be honest, the ambiance here is definitely the biggest selling point. The whole space is huge, and the decor has that very photogenic aesthetic vibe[1], so any picture you take looks good. The lighting is great during the day, but take my advice, you have to come in the evening!
Head straight up to the rooftop, watch the sky slowly turn from orange to deep blue, and see the city lights of Lampung start to twinkle one by one before your eyes. With the evening breeze, it's seriously so chill[2]. Plus, the waiters are all super friendly; from the greeter to the cashier, everyone is so nice. The overall experience is just perfect.
How's the food? Some surprises and some "just okay"s
I didn't have high expectations for the food at a cafe with such a great ambiance, but it turned out to be a pleasant surprise! I tried their Tom Yum soup[3], and unexpectedly, the sour and spicy flavor was quite authentic and very appetizing. The chocolate drink[4] was also good; remember to order it with less sugar, and the sweetness will be just right.
But, I have to be honest. The portion sizes are a bit "unbalanced." They give you so much rice you could get stuffed, but the meat in some dishes is... emmm, you know, just a tiny bit[5]. Maybe because the prices are affordable, we can't ask for too much. The coffee is just standard. For this ambiance, it's worth it.
Editor's Highlights | Pro-tips & Money-saving Guide

- Best Time to Go: Head to the rooftop after 5 PM. The city light view is the main attraction, so don't go too early.
- Hidden Gem Seats: If you can't stand the heat or want a quiet place to work, choose the indoor window seats on the third floor[6]. The AC is super strong, and the view is great too.
