Oketo Cafe Candidasa — Restaurant in Kecamatan Manggis

The coffee was just ok - my double espresso was over-extracted (too long) and bitter, but grateful that they served oat milk. Fresh fruit juices beautiful! Pop music extremely annoying and unnecessary - rather than adding to the atmosphere, it destroyed it for us. Actually quite unbearable. Lovely little retail section with some clothes etc with their own branding. Eggs Benedict was ok - hollandaise was bland but the multi-grain bread was really lovely! Avoid the stodgy pancakes - quite extraordinary to somehow mess that up but they did. Nothing arrived together - big wait between each dish arriving - adults finished eating by the time kids...

New coffee shop, the coffee there is not fantastic, but ok. Just coffee, drinks, smoothie bowls and pastries are available. I ordered a cinnamon roll. It was terrible, dry and tasteless, looks like the cinnamon roll lived on their shelve for few days. I was so hungry and ate it anyway and o my, how I regret. Already 2 hours past and I’m still feeling this terrible taste in my mouth. The staff need much more training. When they asked me how was my food and I said it was terrible and tasted old they just smiled to me and said that is not 3 days old, only from yesterday! Such a relief to get that reply and pay 35.000 for an old disgusting...

If you are a tourist in the area, and want to get great coffee and something that reminds you of a hipster Cafe .. this is the place to be. You can get the best (western) coffee here in the area - Latte and Cappuccino taste just as good as at home. Good is also great, prepared with love and arranged beautifully. The omelettes or bowls are a great deal, freshly prepared and served on beautiful plates or in wooden bowls. Music is mostly quite modern or classic pop. There's also a book exchange if you need something fresh to read. I wish we had a place like this at home. Almost forgot: the cinnamon roll...
