In the cool atmosphere city like Bandung, coffee
introduced as a company for night talk with friends, as a
drink that you enjoy in the meeting, even for a medium
for you to get to know with new people. The coffee
lovers in Bandung gather through their interest in the
coffee making.
In the centre of the city, most of the local coffee
house offer their service as a take away coffee, where
instead of getting the coffee using ceramic cups in a
place where you can sit literally for hours, they replace
the ceramic cups with paper cups for hot ones and
plastic cups for cold coffees. The take away
coffee is perfect to take while you are rushing to some
meeting or other circumstances. Take away cafe need
no big space, but rather focused on serving a good
quality coffee in a fast pace.
Take a look at our journey visiting Kopi Toko Djawa.
This coffee shop located in the heart of Bandung, or
more precisely at Jalan Braga. At the first time we enter
this place, we noticed the oldies vibe inside the shop.
They combine the vintage stuff like old books,
magazines, phonograph, with some greens and chill
playlist that made this place very home-y. This place
used to be a bookstore, named Toko Djawa. With the
hands of creativity of locals, they transform this place
without removing the comfort and vibe of the old
bookshop.
Kopi Toko Djawa offers open sitting
arrangement using the long chair without
tables around the counter and the
entrance. This to give customers freedom
to have some interactions with other
people.
As the shop itself was suitable only for
short visiting, Kopi Toko Djawa serves
coffee-to-go like the famous international
coffee shop at a very affordable price. They
serve lattes start from Rp 20,000 or 6 RM
per cup. They also serve bites to company
your delightful time of sipping coffees.
