This bunker-like coffee bar specialising in Indonesian beans has some the warmest service going around. Pour-overs from provinces including West Java and South Sulawesi are served in a unique cup with a lip that goes from thick to thin, designed to highlight different tasting notes. Many rush in for takeaways between meetings, but linger and you’ll be rewarded with genuine attention and knowledge.
Good to know: It’s not just coffee. Pulled-beef rendang toastie, anyone?
