Kobie Coffee Tiban - Cafe & Bingsoo Dessert — Restaurant in Batam City

I had a pretty nice time at Kobie! The place is quite insta-worthy and there’s even a small play area for kids, which is a sweet bonus.

The vibe is kinda dark and mysterious, not really my usual scene for a café, but still cool in its own way.

I’d definitely come back though, because the food was really good. The curry noodles hit the spot, and the bika was super interesting, unique flavor, not too sweet, very glocal (haha, global + local)! Though I wish the aroma and texture of the bika stood out more. The coffee was okay too, smooth and easy on the tummy.

Food came out pretty quick, like 15 minutes. The bika took longer, maybe 30 mins, probably ‘cause it was the weekend.

There are power outlets so it’s WFC-friendly, but the dim lighting isn’t my fave for getting work done.

Overall, good vibes, good food—worth...

Was quite a bad experience for just getting some...

The concept of Retro Pop is really unique, there are different photo spots at the cafe. Not just the ambience is great, the food from RUMA was delicious, my favorite are the Mie Kari Kuah & Nasi Goreng Kalimantan 😋 the snacks are very affordable too! Not forget to mention the coffee & bingsoo, eye & tummy pleasing 👍

P.s: There is a unique...
