Raindear Coffee & Kitchen — Restaurant in Bogor

Visited May 2023, weekend, around 3PM. Not too crowded, many tables available.

BREAKFAST CARBONARA, 3.5/5 IDR 57,000 Pasta was cooked al dente, which was good. The carbonara sauce tasted 'flat', too watery and too 'sweet'.

SOP IGA, 4/5 IDR 90,000 Soup tasted pretty good but the clove smell & taste was too strong for me. Meat was okay, it wasn't fall of the bone tender, but it wasn't tough either. Rice was included and the rice portion was generous, but I wish the rice was a little bit more fluffy. Overall good, but nothing special

FISH & CHIPS, 3/5 IDR 58,000 Very little fish, drowned in thick and hard and too salty batter. Barely tasted the fish at all. Side salad was sparse. Tartar sauce was too sour

ES KOPYOR GRASSJELLY, 3.5/5 IDR 43,000 The 'kopyor' was kopyor ice cream, not real kopyor coconut. It has real coconut but it was too hard and dry, should've used juicy tender young coconut. The rest basically was cocopandan syrup and a few chunks of nata de coco. Too expensive for such a simple and 'pseudo' drink.

ICED LEMON TEA, 3.5/5 IDR 38,000 Regular lemon tea, but considering the price vs size, this was also overpriced.

SERVICE 3/5 Lots of server but very hard to get anyone's attention, although we had raised our hand and call them several times. Food and drink came out around 10-15 minutes after ordering

PRICE 3.5/5 Several items we ordered tasted mediocre and overpriced

ATMOSPHERE 4/5 Tall ceiling, lots of natural lights, aesthetic lighting and decor, indoor & outdoor seating available (outdoor seating is smoking area). Limited AC in indoor, so was not very cool and I imagine it would be a bit warm if it was full house.

PARKING 4/5 Parking available but limited. However there was a parking guy who would assist in finding a spot on...

This café is located at Jl. Bina Marga I No.7, Baranangsiang, Kec. Bogor Tim., Kota Bogor, West Java 16143. It features classic American architecture with one and a half floors and indoor and outdoor areas.

We ordered several dishes that seemed to be the highlights on the menu, namely Wagyu Fried Rice, Grilled Chicken with Mushroom Sauce, Strawberry Tartlet, and Original Bogor Iced Coffee.

The Wagyu Fried Rice I ordered was packed with spices. I could even smell the aromatic spices from it. The Wagyu beef was cooked using the meltique method, so it was definitely tender. The portion was generous, enough to satisfy my appetite.

The Grilled Chicken Mushroom Sauce had two slices of tender chicken topped with a savory, slightly salty mushroom sauce. There was a garnish of sliced baby tomatoes and fresh lettuce with a hint of acidity. It was decent.

The strawberry tartlet has an appealing appearance with plenty of strawberry slices on top. However, the taste was odd on my tongue, like a sour flavor I couldn’t quite describe. I didn’t finish the dessert because the taste was unusual to me.

The dessert I found enjoyable was the Original Bogor Coffee Ice Cream. This coffee is packaged in a plastic can, making it easy to carry around or drink on the go. Here, it comes with a glass and ice cubes, so you can pour it into the glass. The taste is bitter yet creamy. I can understand why many people in Bogor buy this coffee.

It’s...

I came here for lunch on a Sunday. The food prices were on the higher range with some affordable choices. Ordered Thai Spring Roll, Pasta Carbonara and Marinara. The spring rolls were so so, basic. After finishing half of the marinara pasta, we found price label sticker in the sauce. Yes, a full on price label sticker. Jijik banget?!?!?! Told the waitress about it and she said "kalo tadi baru dimakan bisa kita ganti baru kak, tapi ini udah mau habis" come on, we just found the price sticker and it's not even our fault that we just now found it in the sauce??? Long story short, they didn't replace the food. We got no compensation whatsoever.

Another irk is that the glasses are very dirty and smelly. Like it was not washed properly. I told the waitress about this and he said "emang kayak gitu kak gelasnya" COME ON BE REAL And then i wipe the glass by myself using tissue, and guess what, stains all over it AND THE TOILET IS DIRTY TOO TISSUE EVERYWHERE AND THE FLUSH IS NOT WORKING THIS IS MY LAST STRAW!!

Ugh for the price that I paid for the food, and tbh the place ambience is quite good, it's truly a waisted potential.

Don't bother coming here if you're looking for an excellent service worth the...
