Jakarta - The Batavia cafe is one of the oldest buildings in all of Kota Tua (means 'Old City). The lamps, photos, flooring, high ceilings create a colonial feel similar to that established in the movie Casablanca.

The construction of the building began in the early 1800’s, the Cafe itself was opened in the 1990’s and it has been a big draw ever since. The word “Batavia” is the old capital name for Jakarta. This restaurant is rustic and overlook the Fatahillah Square.
