Discover Onetwothree Coffee & Eatery, a stylish all-white cafe in Surabaya with a chill beach resort vibe that’s perfect for your Instagram feed. The main draw is the "AFTER SIX" evening package, offering a main course and a drink for just 55k IDR. While the photogenic spot has great deals and refreshing drinks, be prepared for small portions and average food. It's an ideal, budget-friendly hangout for catching up and snapping photos, but less so for serious foodies.
I've probably seen photos of this Onetwothree Coffee & Eatery in Surabaya on my Insta feed like 800 times. It's all about that pure white, beach resort vibe, and it looks so Chill 🤙. But what really got me out of bed was their "AFTER SIX" evening package—a main course + a drink for only 55k IDR[1]?! Anjay! For that price in the city center, I had to go check out what the deal was.
Immersive Virtual Experience ☁️
The moment I walked in, the ambiance was truly Mantap! The all-white design is clean and stylish, the music was at just the right volume, and it really gave off that relaxing beach resort vibe[2].
I ordered the Chicken Mushroom[3] from the evening package and paired it with a lychee tea. My friend ordered the signature drink they heavily promote, the Coco Berry[4], which is a mix of fresh berries and creamy coconut. It was really refreshing. We also tried the mint tea, which was pretty good too[5]. It's super photogenic; you could post a whole nine-photo grid from just about any corner.
Ucap-ucap Dikit (A Little Rant)
Okay, enough with the praise, time for some real talk. Girls, manage your expectations!
First off, the portions are really on the small side[6]. As a girl, after finishing my meal, I felt... maybe 60% full? And the food's taste is just, well, "lumayan lah" (it's okay). One time, the chicken chop my friend had was super dry, and the quality of the rice didn't seem great either[7].
Next is the environment, which can be a bit hit-or-miss. The day I went, the AC wasn't working very well, so it was a bit hot inside[8]. Also, I've heard that you might sometimes run into staff who are in a bad mood and look a bit grumpy. Another detail: some of the high tables outside have very sharp edges. My arm was painfully pressed against it when I sat there[9], so be careful when you're choosing your seat.
Editor-in-Chief's Money-Saving Guide 💰
Even though there are some things to complain about, for the price, some things are forgivable! For my friends who want to snag a good deal, take notes:
Overall, if you're a student or on a tight budget and looking for a place to sit, chat, and take photos, this is definitely a great choice. But if you're going specifically for the food, then... think twice, haha
- For the Dinner Crowd: Go after 6 PM and head straight for the 55k evening package[10]; it's the best value for money!
- Brunch Deal: The Brunch package is also a good deal; you can get it for around 30k-35k[11].
- Birthday Perk: Attention, birthday people! Within 5 days before or after your birthday, just show your KTP and make any purchase (mineral water doesn't count, haha), and you can get a free blueberry toast[12]!
- Seating Tip: The upstairs seats are in high demand, so if you want to sit upstairs, it's best to go early or plan ahead.
- The all-white beach resort vibe cafe from IG. Step inside for an instant Chill atmosphere [1].
- After 6 PM, the evening set (main + drink) is just 55k IDR [2]! An absolute steal for downtown—you have to go!
- The signature Coco Berry blends fresh berries and creamy coconut. Just the description will make you want one [3]
