Bandung's Setiabudi area welcomes a fresh lifestyle destination with the arrival of GRIP Cafe & Lounge. More than just a place to eat and drink, the venue also houses Severa Padel and IO Dance Studio, creating a dynamic space where guests can stay active, socialize, work, and unwind throughout the day.
The venue embraces a contemporary aesthetic with a muted color palette, dim lighting, and lounge-inspired seating that creates a calm and sophisticated atmosphere. During the day, natural light filters through the space, making it suitable for casual meetings, remote work sessions, or simply enjoying a cup of coffee. As evening falls, the ambiance shifts into a more intimate setting, perfect for relaxed gatherings with friends.
GRIP Cafe operates daily from 7 AM to 9 PM, catering to early risers, coffee enthusiasts, and those looking for a comfortable work-from-cafe spot. The menu offers a mix of Nusantara, Asian, and Western selections, providing something for every palate.
One of the standout dishes is the Nasi Rempah, beautifully presented in a traditional-style pot that enhances both its visual appeal and dining experience. Richly seasoned and thoughtfully plated, it quickly catches attention before the first bite. For those craving international flavors, the Thai Boat Noodle and Thai Beef Salad offer satisfying options packed with bold and vibrant tastes.
The snack selection is equally worth exploring. Favorites include Tahu Cabe Garam, the generously portioned Snack Platter, and a surprisingly addictive Pisang Goreng topped with sesame seeds, adding a unique twist to the classic Indonesian comfort snack.
To complement the food, GRIP serves a variety of beverages ranging from coffee and non-coffee drinks to cocktails and mocktails. One refreshing highlight is the Noni Belanda mocktail, a well-balanced drink that delivers bright and refreshing flavors, making it a perfect companion for Bandung's cool weather.
When the clock strikes 9 PM, GRIP transitions into a lounge experience that runs until 2 AM. The atmosphere becomes more laid-back and social, offering a cozy setting to wind down after a long day. On Fridays and Saturdays, live DJ performances bring additional energy to the venue, making it an appealing destination for late-night gatherings without the intensity of a nightclub environment.
Whether you're coming for a morning coffee, an afternoon work session, a game of padel, a dance class, or a chill night out with friends, GRIP Cafe & Lounge introduces a refreshing all-in-one concept to Bandung's growing lifestyle scene.
