Bataputi Coffee House — Restaurant in Malang

With white brick walls supporting several parts of the cafe—combined with traditional wood and rattan materials—the cafe's name is simply taken from the name of the building material. The white nuance, which is also obtained from the fence, some of the furniture, and the door and window frames, makes Bataputi Coffee House a clean and attractive photo backdrop. Coupled with a beautiful cafe environment, surrounded by trees and ornamental plants from the outside to the inside, Bataputi Coffee House has remained as a favorite cafe in Malang since its establishment in 2015.

Many potential photo backgrounds at Bataputi Coffee House. The most favorite is the outer part of the cafe, which has white rattan tables and chairs. We can take photos with 3 backgrounds at once: a wooden gazebo which is part of the smoking area, the Bango River and the trees on its banks that divide Araya Housing, and the magnificent Araya Bridge. Now the chandelier that adorns the Araya Bridge lights up brightly before night falls. Not only does it add to the coolness of your photo background, but it also makes the night atmosphere warm and romantic!

Just open every day at 3 pm, on weekends Bataputi Coffee House starts to get busy at 5 pm. Visitors generally aim to sit in the gazebo and non-smoking rooms that are air-conditioned and have sofas. Besides being a fun place, the food and drinks offered by Bataputi Coffee House are affordable. We tasted two coffee drinks recommended by the friendly cafe staff, namely avocado coffee and the other which is only available on weekends, es kopi susu tempo doeloe.

The coffee in avocado coffee is still quite dominant even though it is served with vanilla ice cream. So if you like light coffee, the creamy tempo doeloe iced coffee is more suitable. Moreover, the special thing is that this milk coffee ice is served with market snacks, the types of which depend on availability.

Heavy meals range from pizza, burgers, to rice, pasta and noodle based ones. Afternoon is the right time for snacking, so we ordered two snacks that cost around tens of thousands of rupiah: fried bananas, gula Jawa and onion rings. The onion rings are crunchy and delicious to eat warmly. However, you must order the Javanese sugar fried banana, which is not sprinkled with meises and cheese as usual, but in a traditional style with a sprinkling of brown sugar and young coconut.

Bataputi Coffee House Jl. Araya Megah No. 9, Araya City, Malang Open: Monday-Sunday...

To be honest I was a bit unsure to come to this place until last month. It was driven by the fact that lots of eatery and coffee house were open offering merely their good look. Bataputi, however, indeed has good look especially for its interior and location by the river bank,and offers great food. I find the basic menu, such as fried rice, satisfactory. The fresh ingredients and combination of spices bring the savor everyone is looking for. Should one need to indulge in some comfort food accompanied by friendly coffee while enjoying afternoon breeze, Bataputi is the one to visit. The best time to be here is from 3-6 p.m. The prices might be higher than average around Malang but it worth the money...

Came back here after several months,

They now serve morning breakfast meals during Saturday and Sunday mornings. The atmosphere is pleasant as you get to listen to the nearby river and some music. The dining area is semi-open, giving you a better taste of nature while still having a roof to cover your head.

Every meal's delicious, with nice quality. Serving time is quick with the servers having polite attitudes. Average expenses are of mid-range, between Rp 40.000 to Rp 80.000. Payment's also doable with QR codes.

All-in-all, great experience. It's definitely worth...
