Café Batavia, Colonial restaurant in Kota Tua, Indonesia

The two-story restaurant occupies an 1830s building with large shuttered windows and a wooden gallery facing Taman Fatahillah square.

Initially constructed as accommodation for Dutch East India Company officers, the building later functioned as an art gallery before becoming a restaurant in 1993.

The restaurant interior displays numerous photographs from the 1930s to 1950s period, documenting Indonesian society during the colonial era.

The Grand Salon dining hall on the upper floor accommodates 150 guests, with a teakwood staircase connecting both levels of the establishment.

The Winston Churchill bar section received recognition from Newsweek International as The World's Best Bar in 1996.
