How to Plan a Coffee Crawl in Madiun

Planning a coffee day in Madiun and not sure where to start? Seven shops in town pour nine signature drinks, and this is what to order at each one.

The Nebula Double Shot runs about Rp17,000, Handayani Coffee Roaster stays open from 6 a.m. to midnight, and the menu splits into three moods: strong and clean, sweet and creamy, and unusual enough to be worth the trip.

Tutorial

1. Start at Lingkar Space on Jl. Sri Rejeki 63a in Kartoharjo. Order the Nebula Double Shot, a bold, creamy palm sugar milk coffee that runs about Rp17,000.

1. Stay for the Milky Way at Lingkar Space if you want soft and sweet. The Americano / Long Black on the same menu is the pick for purists.

1. Move on to Handayani Coffee Roaster on Jl. Kapten Saputra. Its 1348 Shortcut Double Shot is thick-bodied and strong without sitting heavy, and the shop opens at 6 a.m. and closes at midnight.

1. Order the Peanut Creamy at Kopkem, a mobile coffee cart. Peanut butter and milk carry it, and it is the standout of the sweeter drinks.

1. Stop at Bolan Bolen for a Moccachino. Chocolate and coffee in one cup, and it is the safest bet on the list.

1. Try the Himalayan Butterscotch at Point Coffee. Butter caramel leads the way, and it is the playful one of the group.

1. Make time for UENO Coffee, a Japanese garden-style shop open since 2019. Its Tiger Bomb is the bold one, with a hint of spice that tastes like nothing else here.

1. Finish with the Salted Domar at Gold Coffee. Salty and sweet at the same time, and it is the one that keeps pulling you back.

Wrapping Up

That is nine drinks across seven shops, and you can run it as one long crawl or spread it over a few visits. The easy route is three stops: Handayani in the morning, Lingkar Space at midday, then Kopkem or UENO in the afternoon. If you want a morning that actually gets things done, start with the strong, clean cups.
