Tjipto Coffee & Roastery — Restaurant in Central Java

This coffee & roastery located in welknown Bedono, Ambarawa, Semarang, Central Java Province. Around 17km, 28 minutes from Ungaran-Bawen toll road gate to Jogja, at the right side of the road, after the famous Bedono "mentega" alvocado and "madu" jackfruit street sellers. You should stop to buy some of these fruits, they are sweet and quite cheap tho.

This coffee shop is a decent coffee shop around, with the nice and cozy environment surrounding it. We love it, lot of trees. If you go from Jogja to Semarang or Jakarta, you should visit it to have a couple of coffee.

No worries with the parking lot, you can park near the main road, in front of the resto, or go more inside near the coffee shop. Of course there is a clean toilets for the guests, and also a prayer room (mushola) not far from the shop.

That's what we do. Just ordered a hot americano and a wine coffee (V60), didnt regret it. My kids ordered mie goreng, and they like it. My wife rempahcchino, Tjipto's signature coffee. At the back of the shop, there is the roaster house, the Waiter said, we can go to see it by ourselves as we wish. The price also relatively well, i mean it is everage price both for the foods and coffee. And need to added one more thing, the hospitality is best, they treat us well, the waiter product knowledges really good.

Now, we decided to visit this coffee shop when we go to Jogja to seeing our grandfather, rather than go to Boyolali exit toll, Bawen will be our gate to Jogja, and stop by for a glass of good coffee...

Saya pelanggan Kopi Eva, yg masih satu area tp lokasi di bawah, selama belasan tahun sejak sebelum Tjipto ada. Satu kali berkunjung ke Kopi Eva, saya disodori menu kopi Tjipto, kata waitres Eva ,itu cafe baru di atas, masih satu pemilik beda manajemen. Boleh pesan lewat Eva dan jg dikonsumsi di Eva. Menu kopinya beda, ala ala cafe atau machinery coffee gitulah. Oke. Sejak saat itu saya selalu pesan menu Kopi Eva dan satu dua minuman kopi Tjipto krn anak saya mmg pencicip menu2 kopi. Saya SELALU pilih duduk di Eva krn ruang lebih luas dan viewnya lbh bagus, langsung ke jalan Bedono. Demikian juga pada kunjungan hari ini. Saya pesan makan minum di Eva, dan satu minuman di Tjipto. Kebiasaan saya,sambil nunggu pesanan siap, saya jalan2 untuk foto2. Kebetulan saya penulis dan sering nulis review seperti di kompasiana. Saat itu saya iseng foto2 di teras pendopo. Pendopo ini dulu ruang pertemuan untuk kawinan dll. Tiba2 waitres laki2 datang menawari saya menu. Saya bilang saya sudah pesan. Dia pun dg ramah meninggalkan saya untuk berfoto. Tak lama kemudian datang waitres perempuan Tjipto yg mengatakan bahwa untuk duduk di teras harus pesan di Tjipto. Saya sampaikan bahwa "Saya sudah pesan di Eva. Tapi ada menu dari Tjipto. Silakan periksa pesanan saya kalau tidak percaya". Entah dia nggak paham ata gimana, dia terus ngomong hrs pesan di Tjipto. Lalu pergi. Sayang saat pesanan datang di Eva, termasuk satu menu dari Tjipto, waitres itu ngilang. Padahal saya mau tunjukkan langsung depan mata dia bahwa saya ini bukan pengunjung gratisan yg numpang foto doang dan bener2 pesan di Tjipto. Mestinya sebelum negur saya, waitres bisa CEK DULU pesanan2 yg datang dari Eva. Ini mah nyolot duluan. Lagipula kalau memang tidak boleh foto di situ, tulis dong besar2 TERAS HANYA UNTUK PEMBELI TJIPTO. Ada tulisan itupun saya masuk kategori pembeli Tjipto lho. Lagian saya itu hanya berfoto krn saya memang sudah pesan table favorit saya di Eva. Buat pengelola Tjipto, kalau mau terpisah ya terpisah aja. JANGAN LETAKKAN MENU KALIAN DI EVA JIKA UNTUK BERFOTO SAJA JADI MASALAH. Kesannya Tjipto tuh mau ordernya saja tapi nggak mau kasih fasilitas sekedar berfoto, curigaan banget sama pengunjung Eva. Aneh, cafe2 lain jg ada satu lokasi beda manajemen, tapi nggak gitu2 amat. Bikin aja pagar tinggi sekalian tuh biar jelas batasnya. Next time nggak bakal lagi2 deh pesen ke Tjipto, belagu amat. Kayak udah...

I'm so thankful that finally, I was able to find this spot, for some good coffee just in time. If you're lookin for a place where to relax, read some novels or whatever, Tjipto's would be the best. They have great coffee available ( Tjipto's baileys coffee were perfect!) & even some tasty yummy foods as well. The ambiance was so vibrant & relaxing, the barista & staff are highly capable & friendly. I will definitely rate them five-star for everything they provided. A memorable place to relax. Keep making good...
