Rehat Bromo Rest Area
A scenic rest stop on the mountain road to Cemoro Lawang, open even before dawn. The roasted bananas and hot chocolate are the favourites.
Located at Jalan Raya Bromo 90 in Wonotoro village on the Probolinggo side, it is linked to the Jiwa Jawa Resort. It has three spots: an upper restaurant, a middle café and a lower coffee stall, all overlooking the valley. Besides daytime hours, it also opens from 2 to 5 a.m., which makes it handy for a break before or after sunrise. Its best-known items are roasted (fried) bananas with chocolate sprinkles and cheese, and hot chocolate. Mains include crazy fried rice, salted fish fried rice and seafood fried noodles. Reviews rate it highly, but service can be slow and orders are sometimes wrong when it is busy. Average spend is about IDR 50,000–75,000 per person. Parking is easy and the restrooms are clean.
Opening hours
Daily about 6:00–22:00, plus 2:00–5:00 a.m. opening
