Great breads to choose from and yummy donuts. But the cafe is very slow service but food is good. One time spent an hour waiting for a hotdog.

This bakery has the best selection of fresh breads and desserts in Wamena. It also has 20 cm pizzas, to-go, and a Mandiri ATM right in the shop. The cafe offers tea and coffee drinks. The brewed coffee, made with locally grown and roasted beans, is quite good, but some of the other coffee drinks are made with mixes.

Excellent service and good Indonesian food! The staff was attentive and menu had plenty of options. They easily handled our party of 18 in very timely fashion. Next door is bakery w/ quite a variety of different buns, breads and rolls. Good choice for a dinner out with friends when you're in Wamena!
