Nestled in the heart of Bandung, Jurnal Risa Coffee is more than just a coffee shop, it’s an immersive experience that blends rich flavors with a chillingly nostalgic atmosphere. Founded by Risa Saraswati, the renowned author and storyteller behind the YouTube phenomenon “Jurnal Risa,” this café invites you into a world where the lines between the seen and unseen begin to blur. With its deep roots in Indonesian paranormal folklore, every corner of the café tells a story, sometimes warm, sometimes haunting, but always unforgettable.
Step inside and you’re instantly transported into a world that feels frozen in time. Housed in a restored heritage building from the 1950s, the interior is a blend of classic European charm and dark, vintage aesthetics. Black marble tables, antique portraits, and dim lighting set the tone for a one-of-a-kind coffee experience that feels like sipping your espresso inside a ghost story. It’s a place where memories echo off the walls, and every detail—from the furniture to the artwork—has a tale to tell.
But make no mistake, the eerie elegance of Jurnal Risa Coffee is only the beginning. The menu is just as imaginative, offering everything from signature drinks like Kopi Khayalan Hendrick, a creamy, dreamy blend of coffee, palm sugar, and rich whipped topping to artisanal pizzas and fusion comfort food that span from Italian classics to local Indonesian flavors. Whether you’re grabbing a quick cup or settling in for a slow brunch, every bite is crafted to surprise and delight.
Jurnal Risa Coffee isn’t just a destination for caffeine lovers, it’s a sanctuary for storytellers, adventurers, and anyone looking for something beyond the ordinary. It’s where coffee meets curiosity, where the past mingles with the present, and where every visit leaves you wanting just a little bit more. If you’re in Bandung and craving not only great food but an experience unlike any other, this is the place where your sense and your imagination come alive.
