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. Bandung Food Guide - Starters | 12
