Mentari39 Homey Cafe

Mentari39 Homey Cafe sits quietly along Jl. Sari Endah in Sukarasa, tucked inside what was once a residential home. This transformation gives the place a sense of warmth and familiarity that’s hard to replicate in larger, more commercial cafes. The atmosphere leans into its name: casual, comfortable, and inviting — making it a favored spot for family gatherings or weekend meetups with friends.

The menu highlights local favorites like Bala Bala, Bebek Goreng, and Nasi Goreng Katsu, suggesting a blend of traditional Indonesian flavors with some comforting, familiar staples. The Bebek Goreng, in particular, is noted for its tender yet crisp texture, which pairs well with the equally distinct Bebek Spesial and Kopi Bekong for those who appreciate a strong, locally inspired coffee to accompany their meals.

Locals tend to drop by throughout the day, but it feels especially suited for a leisurely afternoon or early evening meal where the homey environment encourages slow conversations and relaxed dining. The space accommodates groups well, whether families with children or friends looking for a quiet spot to catch up. While parking can be a bit tight — a commonurban quirk noted by visitors — the convenience of a neighborhood setting makes the trade-off manageable.

The overall vibe is unpretentious and comfortable, with friendly service that matches the setting. It’s the kind of place where you feel more like a guest visiting a friend’s house than a typical cafe customer. If your idea of cafe time involves hearty plates, familiar flavors, and a cozy retreat from the city buzz, Mentari39 Homey Cafe fits that niche in Sukarasa's local scene.
