Breakfast After Watching Sunrise at Punthuk Setumbu, Borobudur Temple, and Bukit Dagi: Starting at 06.00 at Kedai Bukit Rhema

The sun had just risen a handspan above Mount Merapi, and you were still standing at the top of the Chicken Church, phone in hand, filled with photos. The sunrise was over — but the second chapter of this morning hadn’t started yet. This is where Kedai Bukit Rhema comes in: not just a place to eat, but a place where that moment can be continued in peace.

A Rare Morning Moment — Sunrise and Breakfast at Borobudur

Mornings at Borobudur have their own magic. The cold air that bites your skin after witnessing the golden glow on the eastern horizon, perhaps from Punthuk Setumbu or the iconic Chicken Church, leaves an irresistible feeling of hunger. Your stomach growls, but your eyes are still spoiled by the panoramic view of green rice fields and the vast Menoreh hills. We know that feeling well.

Kedai Bukit Rhema, located in Kurahan, Karangrejo, Borobudur, Magelang, sits at an altitude of 120 meters above sea level. It is only about 3.5 km from Borobudur Temple or roughly a 10-minute drive from the temple’s main gate. This strategic position makes us the perfect choice for breakfast at Borobudur after you’ve finished hunting for the sunrise.

Imagine, after a quiet moment enjoying the grandeur of nature, you can head straight to a warm place, treated to a similar view, and of course, appetizing food. Since opening in 2017, we have served 875,678+ tourists and earned a rating of 4.8/5 from 10,968 Google Maps reviews. This is not just a number, but proof that we know how to make your morning perfect.

If you already have your own sunrise plan, or perhaps want to enjoy a relaxing morning without being tied to a package schedule, we are also ready to welcome you. Kedai Bukit Rhema is open every day from 06:00 AM to 07:00 PM WIB. We are proud to be one of the earliest breakfast spots in the Borobudur area.

You can come directly (walk-in) and choose your favorite seat.

No reservation is needed for small groups, just come and enjoy.

Available Breakfast Menu

What is most sought after after the cold morning air? Of course, warm food and drinks to replenish your energy. We have a selection of breakfast menus crafted to delight your taste buds.

Warm Rice + Nusantara Side Dishes

The distinctive aroma of spices that hits you as soon as you enter our cafe will make your stomach rumble. Steaming hot rice is served with a variety of selected Nusantara side dishes. Imagine, the warmth of soft rice combined with the savory taste of sides like fried chicken, balado eggs, or richly flavored stir-fried tempeh. Every bite will feel like a warm hug after the cold morning. All our menus are halal-certified, so you don’t need to worry.

This is not just breakfast, but a dish that lifts your spirits, reminding you of the richness of Indonesian cuisine. We want you to feel the sensation of eating at grandma’s house, full of love and warmth.

Menoreh Robusta Coffee — The Best Companion After a Cold Sunrise

After the cool morning air at the hilltop, a cup of hot coffee is a blessing. We serve Kopi Robusta Menoreh, a local coffee native to the hills surrounding Borobudur. Its strong, slightly bitter Robusta aroma, with a touch of natural sweetness, will instantly warm your body and refresh your mind. It’s the perfect way to start the day, accompanied by a calming green panorama.

Special Fried Bananas — The Perfect Light Breakfast

If you’re looking for something lighter yet still filling, our Special Fried Bananas are the right choice. Sweet local bananas, wrapped in a crispy batter, and fried to a perfect golden brown. Warm, sweet, and slightly savory, this snack is perfect to enjoy with hot tea or Robusta Menoreh coffee. Great as a complement or substitute for a main breakfast, especially if you want to see the full menu at Kedai Bukit Rhema.
