House of Sampoerna Café

Surabaya


This cafe is adjacent to the House of Sampoerna museum and occupies a gorgeous colonial structure complete with stained-glass windows and brash and diverse art works – a memorable spot for a meal. The menu is divided into East and West, with classic Indonesian-style nasi goreng and Singapore laksa, along with New Zealand steaks and fish and chips.

There are great desserts, espresso and a full bar, including cocktails and cognac.
