  • Nice cafe with a lovely view, surely worth the 20-30 minutes drive up. Cafe had an upgrade in 2021. I usually come here on weekend days after walks around Dare (the cafe can also help arrange a guide i.e. to Tuda Tiris waterfall) Cafe has good coffee and fresh juice as well as sandwiches. Dare is also a great place to buy plants along the road
  • Popped in here as part of a drive around Dili tour. The view and coffee here was spectacular. Highly recommend
