Roemah

Best Known For

Slow-cooked Beef Cheek Rendang and traditional Coconut Coffee, delivering rich Indonesian flavours and authentic café favourites.

Every dish has a story - and at Roemah on Dorcas Street in South Melbourne, those stories travel across the extraordinary breadth of the Indonesian archipelago, celebrating culture, heritage and the flavours of generations in every beautifully crafted bite. From the rich layered sweetness of Masuba from Palembang to Putu Ayu from Java, delicate Lontar custard from Papua and crispy golden Gorengan loved across the entire country, every item is made fresh daily and paired with traditional Indonesian coffee brewed old-school through cotton filter or fragrant jasmine tea. This is food as memory, heritage and celebration — edible stories of festivals, family gatherings and street-side traditions that have shaped Indonesia's extraordinary culinary soul.
