15 Garden-Themed Restaurants in Jakarta: Updated Guide

Jakarta’s restaurant scene includes airy courtyards, lush coffee gardens, plant-filled hotel lounges and lively rooftop settings. In a busy city, greenery can make a meal feel more relaxed—but an old restaurant photograph or a social media mention is not proof that an establishment is still open.

This guide revisits 15 garden-themed restaurants from the original feature, preserving every old photograph and photographer credit. Current official venue information is available for Twin House, Gordi HQ, JimBARan Lounge at AYANA Midplaza and Lucy in the Sky SCBD. Other names are retained as historical leads where contemporary details are uncertain. Browse our Indonesian dining guide, Jakarta café guide and Jakarta experience ideas for trip planning.

Fifteen Original Garden Restaurant Names: Updated Guide

Important: All 15 photographs are reproduced from the original article with their individual credits. They illustrate the historic venue list, not necessarily the same current restaurant décor. Check the operator’s current contact information, restaurant status, menu and garden seating before leaving your hotel.

1. Twin House Coffee & Kitchen

Area: Cipete, South Jakarta. Verification: Current operator outlet page.

15 Garden Themed Restaurants in Jakarta That Will Soothe Your Eyes — *Original image by evanssibarani; retained from the historic article.*

Twin House’s official website confirms its Cipete garden café at Jl. Cipete Raya No.4B and another outlet in Blok M. The operator describes meals, coffee and gathering spaces, including a garden for events. Its current operator website is more useful for bookings than the old edition’s menu and hours.

A relaxed coffee meet-up can be combined with other Jakarta cafés.

Visitor Check

Contact the exact venue or operator before visiting, especially to confirm the garden or terrace can be used, present-day prices, wheelchair access, opening hours, reservation policy and weather arrangements. Historic photographs and menus do not establish current availability.

2. Siku

Area: Dharmawangsa, South Jakarta. Verification: Historic listing; present-day café operation not verified.

This was previously presented as a hybrid café, fitness studio and learning centre in a residential neighbourhood. Its earlier descriptions of classes, coffee and smoothie bowls are historic editorial material rather than current operational facts. No sufficiently reliable operator confirmation was established for the same location today.

If travelling with children, select a currently confirmed place and consider family activities in Jakarta.

Visitor Check

3. Warung HaloNiko

Area: Warung Buncit area. Verification: Historic listing; present-day branch and trading hours unverified.

The original list highlighted an unusual Javanese-and-Greek-inspired kitchen. Dishes were described as gyros and salads, but menus and opening hours can disappear or change entirely. A photograph or Instagram attribution is not evidence of current dining service.

For broader local flavour inspiration, compare Indonesian speciality restaurants in Jakarta.

Visitor Check

4. Gordi HQ

Area: Jeruk Purut, South Jakarta. Verification: Current official venue page.

Gordi’s official Gordi HQ page names Jl. Jeruk Purut No.25, Cilandak Timur, and describes an outdoor picnic area alongside a slow bar, coffee and café food. This makes it one of the strongest present-day matches for a garden café. Confirm availability before special events or weekend visits.

Coffee fans can read our guide to Indonesian coffee varieties.

Visitor Check

5. Pepenero

Area: Original SCBD-area Italian restaurant. Verification: Historical location unverified.

An earlier edition described Pepenero as an Italian restaurant with hanging greenery around Jakarta’s business district. The related photograph credit points to an account associated with Bali, not necessarily the Jakarta venue. Restaurant names can cover different branches, so verify the exact operating business.

Those arranging client meals may prefer a confirmed booking and compare Jakarta’s dining districts.

Visitor Check

6. Odysseia

Area: Pacific Place area. Verification: Historical venue lead; official current status unclear.

The original entry celebrated a leafy European-style bistro and an intimate dining atmosphere. That description may reflect an earlier tenancy in Pacific Place. Without up-to-date operator evidence, do not promise that the restaurant still operates or that its former menu and terrace remain available.

The nearby shopping district can also feature in a Jakarta mall itinerary.

Visitor Check

7. JimBARan Lounge at AYANA Midplaza Jakarta

Area: Sudirman, Central Jakarta. Verification: Current official hotel listing; 2026 garden renewal.

The AYANA Midplaza official dining page confirms JimBARan Lounge as an Indonesian dining venue. Recent August and September 2026 reporting describes its relaunched outdoor garden, water features and refreshed furniture. It is a credible city-centre choice for a planned lunch or dinner, subject to reservations and weather.

Its Indonesian menu pairs naturally with our Jakarta Indonesian dining overview.

Visitor Check

8. Yesterday Backyard

Area: South Jakarta. Verification: Historical listing only.

The earlier description focused on vintage memorabilia, industrial details and a large backyard used for casual gatherings. None of those older facilities should be guaranteed today without verification. A visitor should establish the precise current restaurant identity, address and booking process before travelling.

For an alternative outing, browse landmarks and attractions across Jakarta.

Visitor Check

9. Cerita Café

Area: Kampung Melayu area. Verification: Historical listing only.

The source described a small, greenery-filled café popular with younger visitors. The earlier customer-service comments are undated anecdotes and are not retained as a current quality judgement. No reliable current operator confirmation was established for this exact venue.

Another way to experience Jakarta is a city sightseeing day.

Visitor Check

10. Three Buns

Area: Original Senopati location. Verification: Historical outlet status unverified.

Three Buns previously stood out for burgers and creative events related to art, fashion and music. These characteristics formed part of its historic identity, but its original location and events programme cannot be confirmed as unchanged in 2026. Check official operator information before seeking the former space.

For visitors interested in creative culture, see Museum MACAN and the city art scene.

Visitor Check

11. Kaum Jakarta

Area: Original Menteng listing. Verification: Current venue status not confirmed.

Kaum was previously discussed for regional Indonesian cooking and collaborations with small producers. The idea is culturally interesting, but the older listing does not verify that its historic Jakarta restaurant still accepts bookings. The original image and photographer attribution remain for provenance, not as a current endorsement.

Learn about the cuisines it once showcased in our Indonesian food introduction.

Visitor Check

12. Lucy in the Sky

Area: SCBD, South Jakarta. Verification: Current Lucy Group SCBD operator page.

Lucy Group’s official SCBD venue page describes a garden-inspired indoor/outdoor restaurant and nightlife space. This is an energetic rooftop-style venue rather than a quiet traditional garden café. The company also lists a separate SPARK branch; make sure a reservation is for the correct location.

A night out could follow a daytime visit to Jakarta’s Old Town, allowing for the long drive between districts.

Visitor Check

13. Soupanova Ecosky

Area: Original GKM Tower rooftop location. Verification: Unverified historical lead.

The original editorial note described a green rooftop setting, city views and entertainment. No suitably current primary-source confirmation was established for this exact venue. Avoid claiming it still has a live-music schedule, sunset experience or the former restaurant menu.

For a different evening activity, consider other Jakarta outing ideas.

Visitor Check

14. Onni House

Area: Original Tanjung Duren listing. Verification: Branch-name and address review needed.

The earlier venue mixed a café, florist and interiors concept in West Jakarta. An ONNI House menu site remains available, while a separately listed ONNI Garden House now appears in Lebak Bulus. Those names and addresses should not be treated as interchangeable without confirmation from the operator.

For western Jakarta explorations, combine dining with Jakarta shopping destinations.

Visitor Check

15. The Garden PIK

Area: Pantai Indah Kapuk, North Jakarta. Verification: Restaurant website located; verify latest branch operation.

A website for The Garden PIK describes a lush indoor-garden dining concept in PIK. Its published operating details may be historical, so do not rely on them without a current confirmation. This venue is not the same business as similarly named garden restaurants elsewhere in Jakarta.

If you are exploring northern Jakarta, our Jakarta accommodation ideas may help shape a longer stay.

Choosing a Garden Restaurant That Fits Your Visit

For Coffee and Outdoor Seating

Twin House Cipete and Gordi HQ stand out for documented outdoor or garden-style café facilities. If you value a quiet setting, book earlier in the day when possible and ask whether an event will take place. Outdoor space may be busier than photographs suggest.

For a Formal Lunch or Business Meeting

JimBARan Lounge offers a hotel-managed garden and Indonesian dining, with its newly refurbished outdoor area making it a practical city-centre choice. Reserve an appropriate table rather than assuming garden seating is included automatically. More Indonesian cuisine ideas can be found in our Jakarta speciality restaurant list.

For Nightlife with Greenery

Lucy in the Sky has an official SCBD venue page and a garden-inspired setting but also focuses on evening music, drinks and nightlife. It is not necessarily suitable for young children or anyone seeking a silent courtyard. Confirm the venue programme and admission or reservation policies.

For Heritage and Local Food Beyond This List

The original garden round-up mixed casual cafés, Italian restaurants, rooftops and upscale lounges. If you care most about regional Indonesian cuisine rather than décor, explore Indonesian local dishes and Padang dining traditions in Jakarta.

Practical Advice for Garden Dining in Jakarta

Book the exact outlet: similarly named brands and sister locations may have different facilities and opening schedules.
Expect weather changes: outdoor tables can be hot or unusable during heavy rain; ask about covered seating.
Allow for traffic: a single long drive across Jakarta can take more of your day than the meal itself.
Check the full bill: old menus may omit taxes or service charges and may list discontinued items.
Clarify accessibility: landscaped paths, lawns and rooftops may have steps or uneven surfaces even when indoor tables are accessible.
Respect the source: photo credits here identify original contributors, not recent reviews or author visits.

Frequently Asked Questions

Are All 15 Places Open in 2026?

There is not enough reliable evidence to claim that. The four venues with current operator listings are distinguished from the historical names whose location or trading status requires confirmation.

Which Is Better for a Garden Coffee?

Gordi HQ and Twin House both advertise greenery and coffee through current operator pages. Their quieter seating areas still depend on the day, event schedule and weather.

What About The Garden PIK and Onni House?

Both have online venue or menu material, but some location and operational details require independent checking. An ONNI Garden House listing in Lebak Bulus should not be assumed to be the same location as the original Tanjung Duren Onni House mention.
