Lovely and spacious terrace. Excellent coffee and other drinks. Cute bookstore next door. Overall the best place to relax if you are visiting the water palace.

I was catching up Bawabuku's closing time and I had no idea that there is a cafe in the same place. I came at 7 PM so everything was dark near Taman Sari and I almost missed it because my Gojek driver also doubted where the place was because it looked so small outside at night. Turns out, I had the best experience ever here! Their Chicken Pokpok (nasi daun jeruk, chicken and sambal matah) is sooo good! I ate very slowly because it was the best thing I've ever eaten in Jogja. Paired with the mocktail Pine Splash, it's super good too! The indoor place was air conditioned so it's super nice and refreshing after a long conference day. The staff is nice and friendly too, they helped us take pictures. Gonna be back there again soon!

Great place to chill☕🌿 Arka Coffee & Space is really good. The place is shady, comfortable, and not too crowded... super calm and peaceful. Perfect for working, doing assignments, or just enjoying coffee without noise. The ambience feels cozy and relaxing, makes you feel at home for a long time. Definitely one of my favorite spots to slow down and breathe. Will come back for sure!

Have been here several times to do WFC. The place is quite good. Their coffee is okay—it's pretty acidic for me, but if you don't really love coffee, please try their matcha latte. Also, tonight we had the chance to try their kwetiau siram. It was raining and my lady wanted something warm. The presentation is good and so is the taste. It is rich, savory, and chewy. The people are nice here, so please make sure you stop by!

The place has changed since my last visit, and it’s much better now. The service is fast and friendly, the cashier and the server were cute tho lol, and the menu offers a good variety. The coffee tastes great, and for a main dish, I highly recommend the kwetiau—it’s really good. There are also several other tenants in this space besides the coffee shop, including a bookstore and a tattoo studio. The space feels very inclusive, where you can come as you are without feeling judged.
