A Quirky Coffee Adventure at twoZa Coffee, Poh Gading: A Review

Twoza Coffee, Poh Gading

Galih

So, let me take you on a little adventure to a place called twoZa Coffee, located at Jl. Poh Gading No. 2, Kuta Selatan, Bali. Now, if you’re looking for a fancy-schmancy coffee shop with all the bells and whistles, you might want to keep scrolling. But if you’re up for a chill spot with some decent brews, then buckle up!

First off, let’s talk about the atmosphere. It’s got that old-school vibe that makes you feel like you’ve stepped into a hipster’s dream. You know, the kind of place where you half-expect to see someone knitting a sweater while sipping on a latte? Yeah, that’s the one! But, fair warning: if you visit during the midday sun, you might find yourself sweating more than a popsicle in a sauna. One reviewer mentioned, “the air con was struggling with Bali’s scorching hot day,” and honestly, I felt that in my soul. So, maybe save your visit for the cooler hours unless you want to leave looking like you just ran a marathon.

Now, let’s get to the drinks! I tried their Hot Latte, Hot Chocolate, and Hot Cappuccino. The latte was like a warm hug in a cup—smooth, creamy, and just the right amount of caffeine to make you feel like you can conquer the world (or at least your next beach trip). The hot chocolate? Oh boy, it was like drinking a melted chocolate bar. I almost asked for a straw to slurp it up like a kid at a candy store. And the cappuccino? Let’s just say it was frothy enough to make me feel like I was living my best barista life.

But here’s the kicker: food. Or should I say, the lack thereof? One poor soul mentioned, “when I came they didn’t have any food,” which is a bit of a bummer if you were hoping for a snack to accompany your caffeine fix. I mean, who doesn’t want a pastry to go with their coffee? It’s like peanut butter without jelly—just wrong on so many levels! But hey, at least the drinks were good, right?

Now, parking? Oh boy, let’s just say it’s a bit of a treasure hunt. One reviewer hilariously pointed out, “the pebbles make the motorcycle hard to go up and down,” which is basically code for “bring your best off-road skills.” If you’re planning to drive, just know that you might need to channel your inner Indiana Jones to find a spot. Or better yet, just take a scooter and hope for the best!

In conclusion, twoZa Coffee is a quirky little spot that’s perfect for grabbing a drink before hitting the beach or while waiting for your afternoon lecture (because who doesn’t love a caffeine boost while pretending to study?). Just remember to come at a cooler time of day, and maybe bring a snack in your bag—just in case they’re out of food again. Cheers to good coffee and even better adventures!
