森 — mori — is Japanese for forest. Morikafe started as a simple idea: put a café inside one, and let the trees do the rest.
Where It Began
The first Morikafe grew up in Hutan Pinus Rahong, deep in the highlands south of Bandung — a place so tucked away that Google is the only sign you'll find on the way in.
Word spread anyway. People came for the coffee and stayed for the quiet, the river, and the cool pine air. A hidden gem, passed hand to hand.
Come with a full head, leave with a quiet one.

What We Keep
The forest is the design. We build lightly around it — bamboo, timber, open air — and never block the view.
Nasi liwet laid out to share, tables that seat a crowd. Food here is an excuse to slow down together.
Soft music, slow coffee, cool air. We protect the quiet as carefully as we make the coffee.
And Since
The forest café found new homes — most recently on the hills of Cimenyan above north Bandung, trading river views for city lights, but keeping the same open-air calm.
