Curious about Senopati's buzziest bar, Modernhaus? This spot boasts a stunning mid-century design and a chic house party vibe perfect for socializing. But getting in is tough! This guide reveals the strict rules, from the two-week advance booking and dress code to the pricey cocktails and two-hour table limit. Discover what to expect and if the exclusive experience is truly worth the hype and the hassle before you even try to make a reservation.
For real, the Jakarta bar scene is getting more and more competitive, but it's rare to see one as"cocky" as Modernhaus. Backed by the Union Group, boasting the"50 Best Discovery"[1] title, and with an award-winning design[2], doesn't that sound super Mantap?
But hold on, don't rush over just yet. This place has rules stricter than my mom's. Wanna go? Booking two weeks in advance is the basic move[3]. You have to pay attention to your outfit too. If you dare to show up in flip-flops or open-toed sandals, the security guard will politely ask you to go home with a smile. Don't ask me how I know… Anjay! 🙄
Vibes are off the charts, like living inside a design magazine
Complaints aside, the moment you walk in, you'll understand why it's so full of itself. The ambiance is truly impeccable. The whole mid-century modern design[4] hits you with a high-class feel. The most amazing part is the super-long communal bar that runs through the entire space. It's practically a holy grail for Nongkrong, tailor-made for social butterflies, letting you high-five the handsome guys and beautiful girls at the next table in no time. The music taste is on point too; it's not so loud that you can't hear what your friends are saying. The whole atmosphere is just that relaxed yet stylish House Party vibe[5].
As for the drink menu, opinions are pretty divided. If you're a cocktail lover, you can try their signature Kenanga[6]; its flavor is very delicate and complex. Tequila fans also shouldn't miss their house-made House Blend Tequila[7]; everyone who's tried it says it's good. But to be honest, I've had some misses too. Some of the premade cocktails taste a bit weak[8], and I feel like they don't justify the price. It's a bit like opening a blind box.
Wallet bleeding, and you have to leave on a time limit?
OK, here comes the most heartbreaking part. The cocktails here are around 150k-180k Rupiah per glass, which isn't cheap. And, even if you buy an expensive bottle, you can only use the table for two hours[9]! Once your time is up, the staff will politely ask you to"move" to the bar, and the experience just plummets. Spending a lot of money and not being able to chill for a bit longer, that part is a real killer.
