Welcome to Cafe Thayco, a hidden gem nestled on Jl. Sulawesi in Ponorogo, East Java, where the art of cooking meets a cozy dining atmosphere. This charming cafe promises not just a meal, but an experience that delights the senses and warms the heart.

Specializing in Chinese and Thai cuisines, Cafe Thayco is celebrated for its vibrant flavors and tantalizing dishes that keep both locals and visitors coming back for more. Among the highlights of the menu is the buttery lobster—a dish that has captured the attention of many, including our customer Galuh Retno Murti, who noted the great flavor of the butter seasoning, albeit wishing for a deeper infusion into the lobster itself. For those who crave a kick, the Tom Yum seafood is a must-try, offering a delightful balance of spice and savory notes that can be customized to your heat preference.

As you step into Cafe Thayco, you’ll be greeted by a cozy and inviting ambiance, perfect for casual dining or a relaxed meal with friends. Although some guests, like Andi Nugroho, have pointed out the simplicity of the decor, the charm shines through, especially when the twinkling lights illuminate the evenings, making it easier to find this tucked-away treasure on a dimly lit street. The serene setting invites you to unwind while enjoying the responsibly-priced dishes that will not break the bank—an aspect praised by customer BTX for its delightful flavors and affordability.

However, the cafe does face some challenges with service speed, as noted by others. A quicker response could truly elevate the experience, bringing it to stellar levels that match the delicious offerings. But worry not; the friendly staff is always eager to make your visit enjoyable, and you can even pre-book your table to secure your culinary adventure ahead of time!

Whether you’re a local seeking a new favorite spot or a traveler eager to taste authentic fare in Ponorogo, Cafe Thayco welcomes you with open arms. Come for the food, stay for the ambiance, and leave with a satisfied palate!

Rasa lumayan enak, baru nyobain lobsternya yg rasa butter sih, utk bumbunya enak cm kurang meresap ke lobsternya. Harganya terjangkau, tempatnya jg cozy utk makan. Semoga bs ditingkatin utk rasanya

Makanan enakk sekali apalagi ayam butter nya, gurih. Menu lain yang enak adalah tom yum seafoodnya (halal) pedas atau tidak. Tidak terlalu padat tempatnya dan menurut saya malah cenderung sepi sih. Agak sulit menemukan tempat ini karena memang di pinggir jalan kecil. Kalau malam dikit (gelap), lampu kelip kelip akan menyala, jadi lebih mudah untuk diketemukan. Bisa di booking juga loh

Probably the best Chinese/Thai food in Ponorogo. Place is so so. A bit dark and lacking character.
