Tired of shouting at loud rooftop bars? Discover Hause in Senopati, a cozy and intimate spot perfect for actual conversations. Arrive around 5 PM to catch the stunning Jakarta sunset over the city skyline. This veteran spot offers a chill vibe, delicious food like Wagyu and Impossible burgers, and great cocktails. It's the ideal escape for after-work drinks, a relaxed date night, or a proper catch-up with friends without the overwhelming noise. A true gem for a relaxed evening out.
Senopati is a super competitive area, with new places popping up endlessly. So it's surprising that Hause, a nine-year-old veteran brand[1], also opened a new spot here. To be honest, I didn't have high hopes at first. After all, it's a rooftop bar in Jakarta, you know how it is...
But once I got upstairs, okay, I stand corrected. The place isn't huge, but it has that just-right intimate feeling[2]. The sofas are so soft, you sink in and never want to get up. The whole space is cozy and comfortable. Most importantly, the music taste here is on point, and the volume is controlled perfectly. We didn't have to shout to chat, so we could finally have a proper Nongkrong with friends! This is such a breath of fresh air for a rooftop in Jakarta!
Sunsets and Good Food, I Want All the Adult Pleasures
You have to time your visit just right! Arrive around 5 PM[3], snag an outdoor seat, and you'll get a full view of the city's sunset show. Watching the Jakarta skyline change from golden yellow to a hazy purple, and then to the city lights turning on, even the drink in my hand felt tastier. Chill～
Speaking of food, we didn't hit any duds either. A few of us ordered a full table:
Attention, my fellow cocktail lovers, the cocktails here are worth trying, especially the Gin & Tonic. When we went, there was a buy-one-get-one-free deal[4], which is basically a free drink. It felt like a waste not to get it, haha.
- My friend ordered the Wagyu Burger[5]. The patty was juicy, the bun was soft, and he was completely lost in how good it was.
- As a vegetarian, I actually found my true love here—the Impossible Burger[6]! The plant-based meat tasted just like real meat, it was so touching. There really aren't many places in Jakarta with this option.
- We also randomly ordered the Red Fried Rice[7]. I thought it might be a weird dish, but it turned out to be surprisingly delicious, Mantap!
Let's Be Real (Here Come the Complaints)
Of course, it's not perfect. There are a few things to complain about:
- 1. The parking attendant downstairs charges a bit wildly; the price isn't cheap[8], so be prepared.
- 2. The elevator was actually broken the day we went... We had to climb the stairs, which instantly burned all my calories, Anjay…[9]
- 3. I heard there's sometimes construction during opening hours, so it's best to confirm before you go. You don't want to be like some other netizens who almost got hit by falling objects, which would totally ruin the mood[10].
