Eastern Promise

Eastern Promise has been a fixture on Jakarta’s bar scene since 1989 and remains a go-to spot for the city’s expat crowd. Modelled after a classic British pub, it’s the kind of place where you can grab a pint of draught beer, tuck into a meat pie, and catch live sports on big screens. There’s also a darts corner, regular live music, and a friendly atmosphere.

B.A.T.S.

B.A.T.S. at the Shangri-La Hotel brings a slice of New York nightlife to Jakarta. Set in a cosy, dimly lit space with brick walls and a buzzing bar scene, it’s known for its live bands, themed parties, and energetic crowd. The drinks list is pretty solid, and the menu covers American comfort food, from burgers to steaks.

Churchill Wine & Cigar Bar

Tucked inside the Hotel Borobudur, Churchill Wine & Cigar Bar offers a refined escape from Jakarta’s bustle. With plush leather chairs, dim lighting, and a curated selection of fine wines and premium cigars, it’s the ideal spot for a quiet, classy evening. A favourite among diplomats and long-time patrons, it delivers a touch of old-world elegance right in the heart of the city.

The Jaya Pub

Jaya Pub is Jakarta’s oldest bar and a true city institution. With its retro décor, live bands, and easygoing crowd, it feels like a throwback to the city’s groovier days. The music focuses on classic rock, the beers come cold, and the mix of locals, expats, and curious newcomers keeps the place buzzing well into the night.

Lucy In The Sky Spark

Up on the rooftop of Senayan Park Mall, Lucy In The Sky gives you a leafy garden terrace and sweeping city-view backdrop for drinks and bites. The décor blends 60s retro with tropical greenery and a glass roof over part of the space for a semi-outdoor feel. Enjoy cocktails, beers, and a simple menu of Asian-Western snacks, all while DJs keep the mood alive from early evening until the wee hours.
