"Best coffee place near the old city in Kupang! Open everyday, just hidden up the white stairs near the barber shop :) The atmosphere is lovely, the shaded rooftop full of plants and there are plenty of good, affordable Western-style coffees available. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking for a change from traditional Indo eateries!"
