01 The story, in three paragraphs

Why everyone keeps coming back.

Djaja Abadi (Djayadi) stands out as a cherished coffee shop nestled in the heart of Samarinda, Kalimantan Timur. Located on Jl. Niaga Timur No.41, this inviting locale has become a beloved spot for locals seeking a blend of comforting flavors and a relaxed ambiance.

Step inside Djaja Abadi, and you’ll immediately sense the welcoming atmosphere — spacious, airy, and cool, making it an ideal retreat for everything from casual meetups to focused work sessions. One customer fondly describes it as a “bagus untuk nyantak dan bikin tugas,” highlighting just how well the environment balances comfort and productivity. The friendly and attentive staff only enhances this inviting vibe, ensuring guests feel right at home.

The menu offers a delightful fusion of familiar Indonesian flavors and comforting snacks paired with expertly brewed coffee. Their Bakmi (noodles) receive high marks for taste, with a harmonious balance between flavor and texture, though some have found slight variations like saltiness to their personal preference. Among sweet treats, the pisang goreng madu aims to delight, though opinions vary; it’s an adventurous must-try that reflects the shop’s commitment to authentic, local tastes.

For coffee lovers, Djaja Abadi serves a rich Turkish coffee that offers boldness with a smooth finish, perfect for those who enjoy a touch of sweetness in their cup. The kopi susu delights with its creamy profile, though its subtle milkiness might surprise some, inviting you to savor every nuanced sip. The Thai tea or teh tarik options balance sweetness beautifully, adding a refreshing counterpart to the heartier dishes. Customers particularly appreciate their quick service, even at opening hours, so you never have to wait long to indulge.

While favorites like their kwetiaw goreng and mie nyemek offer a comforting delight with vibrant, mixed textures and flavors, some dishes like the singkong goreng proved less crispy than expected — a minor flaw in an otherwise well-crafted menu. The cleanliness of the space, especially the restrooms, and the warm, polite demeanor of staff consistently receive high praise, creating a wholesome dining experience.

Whether you're craving a rich coffee, a hearty noodle dish, or a peaceful nook to gather your thoughts, Djaja Abadi (Djayadi) packs quality, warmth, and authenticity into every visit. It’s more than just a coffee shop — it’s a corner of Samarinda where good food and good company come naturally together.

Datengnya pagi hari pas baru buka tapi servingnya surprisingly cepet lho. Kwetiaw gorengnya enak, bubur ayamnya not my cup of tea karena kurang gurih buat aku tapi point plus buryamnya pake telor asin, mie nyemeknya lebih dominan ke rasa manis, roti panggangnya enak ya kayak roti panggang pd umumnya, tipe roti panggang yg basah bukan yg kering gitu wicis me likey, kopi susu o nya ga berasa susunya cuma berasa kopi hitam yg pekat doang, apa emang begitu ya? idk soalnya baru kali ini coba kopi susu o Harga-harganya pun standar kok, sesuai. Mungkin kalo indoornya pake ac bakal lebih cozy buat nongkrong dan maaf bgt ada wastafel di dalam ruangan, literally nempel di dinding di tengah-tengah meja buat konsumen makan itu ga banget kak berasa kayak warung lalapan lamongan, jadi keliatan kotor, mungkin bisa taroh di luar atau di deket toilet aja

Always a good place to eat, affordable for the most part, with good atmosphere as well as good music taste that's played, will definitely come back, *edit: came back a few time and always catches the cashier speaks using toxic language
