It is a well-known fact that this cafe is always crowded. If you have come all the way and the place is full, of course, your arrival will be in vain. Here are tips to make your visit comfortable.

1. Make a reservation in advance

If the space is still available, the cafe allows reservations until at least 24 hours before arrival. The cafe strongly recommends reservations for large groups, especially on weekends and public holidays.

2. Do not step on and pick plants

Rumah Gemuk has a green concept with many trees inside and outside the cafe. Even at the bottom there is also a grass area that makes the cafe more beautiful.

Some tourists, especially small children, may want to feel like running around on the green grass filled with various plants and colourful plants. However, this is not.

3. Do not bring food and drinks from outside

As is common in cafes in general, it is etiquette not to bring food and drinks from outside the cafe. Instead, enjoy the food and drinks provided by the cafe. The price is still affordable, and the food is also delicious.

4. It is okay to bring photo property as long as it does not disturb other guests

In order to make photos look more attractive, tourists are allowed to bring supporting properties. But don’t let your photo properties disturb other guests.

In addition, the use of photos for pre-wedding or commercially related must make an appointment in advance because there is a different charge.

5. Wear beautiful clothes

To get the best photo results, maximize it by looking stunning with beautiful clothes, too. It’s a shame if you have come all the way, you don’t get maximum photo results.

6. Come in the afternoon

If you want to enjoy the view of Lake Bratan and Bedugul Hill, it is recommended to come in the afternoon around 3 – 7 pm. In addition, to enjoy the view, guests are advised in the Table Service Dining area because it is located on the mezzanine, ensuring the ultimate experience.
