Even their name is a kind of coffee, which is a special way to serve a coffee, they provide meals also. Today it become popular. Even on the weekend they will have long queue and crowded.
The concept is serve the village atmosphere with their simplicity. You will see the building without ceiling, full of wood materials, old school tile and you can see how they cook using firewood. Even the foods also simple foods such as tofu, tempeh, fried egg, salty fish. Don’t expect for meat cause you won’t got it. It is village simplicity concept.
The location of the restaurant surrounded by rice field in east side. It’s nice area with fresh air. The relaxation music will accompany you when you eating or drinking special coffee. They also provide fried banana which has soft texture, but still crunchy. This place is suitable for city people who miss village atmosphere.
