(05/2025) The best café in Rantepao, which also serves as a roastery. High-quality service, very friendly staff, cozy interior, and a wide selection of affordable breakfasts, light meals, and drinks. We recommend the V60 – the French press was also tasty. Card payment accepted. No Wi-Fi available.

Excellent restaurants experience at kaana Toraya coffee. It was such a good experience that we went there three times. We ordered a variety of meals, the standouts were gado fado and the banana fritters, though everything was excellent. Service is great, staff is always aware of your needs. The kitchen is quick and good. The portions are good for the prices. The atmosphere is nice, with always a few people but without loud music and much noise. Overall great experience, hence why we visited 3 times!

We stayed at Hotel Pison for our honeymoon (which is practically connected to this café-restaurant), and ended up having all our meals here — everything was delicious! They serve both local dishes and Western-style options. We especially loved the regional coffee, the poached egg toast with guacamole, and the crêpes . The decoration is also wonderful — cozy, stylish, and full of charm. Plus, the girls working there are absolutely lovely. 100% recommended!

There are places where you simply know that quality and the desire to serve better and do things right are present, and this is one of them. I arrived by chance to have a coffee and ended up returning day after day to eat breakfast and drink more coffee. Everything in this place is made with love, and it is one of those places where you feel cared for, protected, and pampered. Everything they cook has a very special and tasty touch. I even talked to the owner, who invited me to see how they roast the coffee. She explained and showed me how they carefully separate the coffee beans they receive, and then they roast them in an oven that was handmade by the owner's father. Then I could understand why the coffee in this place was so wonderful. The smell of newly roasted coffee is exceptional. These are the kind of places that make you love and feel at home when you travel. When you enter, you realize you are in a special place because not only are there passing foreigners, but also locals and people from all over Indonesia who come and return, not just for the quality and service but also for the atmosphere. It is gratifying to see places like this in one’s trips.

Great nice looking place with tasty food and coffee. Came back here every morning. The portion sizes of some dishes could be slightly bigger.

Friendly, helpful staff. Delicious food, good coffee, lovely garden courtyard and interesting stylish decor. And you can buy coffee beans, ground and drip filter bags. A little oasis in the busy town.

The ambiance is well thought out. Unbelievable the best avocado toast ever and the gado² also ridiculously good! The juice is not as remarkable definitely coming back for breakfast! Ps: I came back for breakfast, and this time, the avocado toast only had one egg, not like the last time with two eggs. The other issue is that they take so long to serve you it happened last time, too, and they even forgot my friend's crepes on my first visit. It's still amazing food, though.

Our guide brought us here for breakfast. Really good selection of Indo and Western (Anglo Saxon) options. Very clean, western, clean bathrooms. We loved it and came again for breakfast today. Avocado toast with tomato and poached egg was a favorite. We asked for a platter of fresh fruit , which was not on the menu, which was wonderful: nicely plated and delicious. Scrambled eggs and toast were scrumptious. Highly recommend!!!
