About Warkop Richmond - Coffee & Sandwich

Down a gritty Richmond alleyway, Warkop pairs proper espresso with street-stall spirit and Indonesian-spiced sandwich craft. Takeaway is the move here. The order to lock down is the beef brisket—stacked thick between light rye, layered with American cheese and pickles, and bathed in a punchy rendang sauce. Early lunch regulars know the fried chicken moves fast, but the Filet O Fish serves as a steady backup with a steaming, crisp batter. If there is time before hitting the pavement, grab a square of coconut-rich kaya toast on soft brioche.

  • Indonesian-Inspired Sandwiches: Sandwiches layer hearty cuts like beef brisket and fried chicken with house rendang and Taliwang spices.
  • Crispy Filet O Fish: Arrives steaming hot with crisp, light batter layered onto a soft roll.
  • Alleyway Takeaway Vibe: A compact, hole-in-the-wall setup built around fast lunch takeaway and daily coffee runs.

Why Richmond locals choose Warkop for punchy Indonesian fusion sandwiches and swift takeaway lunches

  • Bold Indonesian-Infused Sandwich Fillings

    House-made Indonesian rendang sauce, green curry, and fiery sambal merah bring deep, punchy flavour to classic cafe sandwich formats.

    Regulars are greeted with attentive, personalised hospitality that turns a fast lunch pickup into an inviting community ritual.

  • Efficient Takeaway for Workday Lunches

    Designed as an intimate hole-in-the-wall takeaway counter, it delivers prompt service tailored for workday lunch breaks.

    For me, this is definitely a takeaway destination rather than a sit-down experience.

  • Nostalgic Morning Bites and Kaya Toast

    Beyond lunchtime toasties, morning visitors can sample sweet Indonesian staples like fragrant housemade coconut jam toast.

    Their housemade kaya is delicious! (The fragrance was spectacular)

  • Chicken Taliwang Sandwich

    The absolute star is their Chicken Taliwang Sandwich. I'm not familiar with Taliwang spice, but my gf, who is, said it was spot on - hella authentic.

  • Rare Beef Roll

    Rare Beef Roll was also pretty good - they chucked tons of beef into a roll which is a huge plus in my book.

  • Sambal Merah Fried Buttermilk Chicken

    Super light & crispy buttermilk-battered chicken paired with creamy stracciatella and a house-made, fiery sambal merah bursting with flavour!

Before you head over

Essential advice on timing, seating, and ordering for your visit

  • Arrive early for popular cuts

    Popular signatures like the fried chicken sandwich and fish fillet frequently sell out later in the day, so visit earlier to avoid missing out.

  • Plan around takeaway

    The Richmond venue has minimal seating tucked in an alleyway overlooking a car park, making it much better suited for quick takeaway than a sit-down meal.

  • Halal and vegan options available

    All core meats including beef, chicken, lamb, and pastrami are halal, and plant-based diners can order dairy-free options like the vegan mushroom melt with vegan cheese.
