Have you ever found yourself overwhelmed by the sheer number of coffee shops along the lively Riau Street? Last weekend, we stumbled upon a new gem: Skytree Coffee and Eatery. With its cozy ambiance, affordable menu, and thoughtful facilities, it quickly earned a spot on our must-visit list.
From the moment you step onto the premises, you’re greeted by the cafe's inviting outdoor area. Friendly staff are on hand to escort you inside, where the vibe turns effortlessly warm and welcoming. The indoor space is thoughtfully designed, with a central bar and tables that make it perfect for working or catching up with friends over coffee. For those looking for privacy, Skytree also offers a private room, ideal for small meetings or intimate gatherings.
Skytree’s menu is as delightful as it is affordable, with prices starting at just IDR 15k. Their offerings range from light bites to hearty main courses, catering to a variety of tastes.
We kicked things off with their Opak Chicken Nachos—an intriguing fusion of Indonesian opak crackers and classic nacho toppings. The result? A surprisingly satisfying and unique dish. Next, we sampled the Bun Chicken Taco Sky, served on a wooden board with the buns nestled in a sleek metal holder. These steamed buns were generously filled with chicken, cucumber, and a tangy red sauce that added just the right amount of kick.
For something more substantial, we tried the Salmon Shiza, a perfectly seared salmon fillet served with crispy potatoes, a fresh green salad, and a zesty sambal for an Indonesian twist. While this dish offers excellent quality and flavor, it’s worth noting that Skytree’s selection of steaks starts at just IDR 25k, making it an incredibly budget-friendly option for meat lovers. Another standout was the Korean Spicy Chicken, a flavorful dish sure to satisfy spice enthusiasts.
If you’re craving local flavors, the Lontong Kari Ayam (rice cakes in a creamy chicken curry) is a comforting option that hits all the right notes.
Skytree’s drink menu is equally impressive, offering something for everyone. Their coffee lineup, from classic lattes to creative mocktail coffee options, is a must-try. The Coconut Crème Coffee was an unexpected star, blending sweetness and richness in every sip. For something refreshing, the Merah Delima is highly recommended, while health-conscious patrons will appreciate fresh juices like the vibrant Berry Lover.
Skytree Coffee and Eatery is more than just a cafe; it’s a spot where affordability meets quality. Whether you’re looking for a cozy hangout, a quiet place to work, or a dining experience that doesn’t strain your budget, Skytree ticks all the boxes. With its prime location on Riau Street, welcoming atmosphere, diverse menu, and excellent facilities, it’s a place you’ll want to visit again and again.
