The Peak Café is located in Seraya, If you know Tahu Sumedang Café or Soponta Café, the Peak Café is just beside those Cafes. If you are from Batam Centre, Muka Kuning, Batu Aji, Tiban and Sekupang after you find “jajanan rujak” in Seraya, you will directly see the Peak Café. It’s about 200 meters from jajanan rujak seraya. Frankly i also never visit this cafe before, until Miss ryanes suggested me to try the menus and see the views from this cafe when i invited my friends to have dinner together at this cafe. Thank you so much sis Rayne, i hope we still have time to visit this cafe in the future :)

Besides many menus we can choose in this café, the price of all the menus are reasonable, for examples for all kinds of juice, the price is only Rp. 8000. While to have Ayam Penyet, you only need to spend Rp. 10.000/Porsion. You also can find Lumpia Semarang in this Café, As the owner of this café, Mr. Condro is from Semarang, So he is happy to be able to offers Lumpia Semarang in his Café.

By the way, what is the special Menu in this café? When I asked this question to the servant that served me when I visited this café, she said that almost all the menus are special, because when you orders them, the taste of them are absolutely delicious. Then she asked me to try “Pisang Sambal”. She said that many customers of this café always ask for Pisang Sambal when they visit this café. When I tried the Pisang Sambal, I got surprised, the taste is very good. If you ask me to describe what is the taste of it, I am afraid I could not explain it. Because it is very delicious that makes me out of words to describe it haha. However, I just suggest you to visit this café, and try the Pisang Sambal by yourself hehehe

While you are having your lunch or dinner in this café, you also can enjoy the view of some places in Batam from this café. If you bring your camera along with you to this Café, you also can take some pictures. The view is quite nice here.
